Would be awesome with twin stick contoller support. Graphics are ok for a solo project. \nThe weaopn building is not instantly intuitive, I would love a short section where you can try out all the types in the beginning, but you probably did not have time for that.

I didn't realize I was dead, and couldn't move, and there was no \"Try Again\" option, so I had to close the game and reopen it to try again. The second round, I was able to move around and dodge enemies before dying, but couldn't figure out how to use the stuff I collected. I needed to go back and read a little to realize how to do this. Third attempt, I picked up stuff, used it, and started using a weapon (flame thrower). I killed a few enemies and died. Each time I died, I had to close the game and start it again. The graphics were kept simple, the movement felt like a little slow, and I didn't quite understand the head movement until I was ready to quit playing. I didn't hear any sound fx or music. Overall, for a 3 day game jam, not bad.

I like the way player can combine different effects to get weapon of his dreams.\n\nOn the side note, knife enemies gave few laughs.

However, the actual gameplay could use a lot of work in terms of visual and audible feedback. With some more time put into this game, it could turn out to be a really fun shooter-up.
