The Cult of the Broken Clock by ectucker1
The Cult of the Broken Clock is a top-down arena shooter where you fight a band of cultists who have trapped you in a mild time loop. Every 20 seconds or so, you switch between having only defensive and only offensive abilities. The arena in which you fight is also a loop, with the hand of a clock dividing a region of dangerous gases.

Really cool aestetic and a nice overall concept. For me it also felt slightly bullet-hellish.
I would really prefer relative control though, absolute movement was not helping at all :)
Also I think you could cheese the defense phase by simply circle strafing. Sometimes I didn't use any defensive abilities in a phase.
But that fits the theme :D
Nice work, keep it up
Still very nice concept and the combat is fairly smooth. Nice job.
