Wow really nice graphics and execution, the game feels super polished, I only had a bit of trouble aiming and I'm no really sure why. You did a great job!! It's a super cool entry.

Thank you ! About your trouble with the aiming, did you played with a controller or on keyboard ?

This takes our inherent human desire to amass stuff, only to force us to throw it away to progress.
It is a parable on the shackles of capitalism, I guess?

Seriously, super fun game and a great hook! Oh, and those designs and random outfits are whimsical :D
Playing two games at once is stressful, but I for one really like it! Typing game arena shooters a now one of my most well regarded genres.

One thing: The controls on keyboard are a bit laggy and in the beginning it was not quite clear to me, how to throw away stuff, since it displayed the A button even though I used a keyboard. And, well, I pressed A a lot. The other numbers worked fine, though.

Thanks a lot !
@purrseus Thanks for your feedback and for warning us about this A button, I'm not quiet sure why it happened but I'll have a look at it :)

Just played a few entries but this is definitely one of the best at this point. Great job on the graphics, it's fun and the concept is pretty original. It's some kind of roguelike that starts over every 10 metters. You guys nailed it, GG !

Yeah I don't understand this game..maybe I'm dumb. I keep dying at the lasers, sometimes I have items, and it automatically spills them. Other times I just die. And it's too hard emptying the entire inventory in time with enemies a level scroll deathwall, and millions of items to press, while aiming with mouse, and moving with wasd.

This game requires some high level skills that I quite don't have yet :sweat:

But amazing graphics and sfx! Reminds me of mine, but...just better aha :rofl:

Thanks everyone! Glad you enjoyed it :)

@itsdanidre well yeah the game is hard and we know it. We thought of making it easier, but since there's only one level, we decided to make it a tough one so that the game can be challenging, and rewarding. Maybe you could try again later and do it on first try haha!

Loved the graphics. The controls were smooth. Gameplay was addicting but could be rather difficult due to screen death.

Great graphics. I tried playing using mouse and keyboard, and it was not very responsive at all. Not sure if this was intended, but I could not get very far because of this.

Great game, Good cohesive artwork. The mouse controls felt a bit off. Good game overall.

Now I know what it feels to be speechless. The art is mind-blowing and love the music and sound effects. I will add this to my list of downloaded games so that I can play it every now and then. Nice work.

Interesting concept, but impossible to play! OMG, waiting that day, when developers understand that RMB an browser = previous page.
Also screen scrools tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fast to do anything, and of course item managment toooooooooooooo hard.

Nice twin stick shooter style game! I killed all the things, but I guess there's only one level? I like the stacking buffs and character graphics.
