THE MYSTERIOUS DEVICE by Itero Proto
On one of the countless planets in the universe lived a creature who called itself Grumi.
Grumi always carried a strange device with it. No one knows whether it was always so hostile, or if this sinister tool changed it over time. No one knows where the device came from. But one thing is certain — when activated, it affects everything around it. The signal it emits carries only one thing: anger. In truth, Grumi is harmless when left alone. It always believed it was the only living being on the planet. But one day, its quiet solitude was disturbed by other creatures that began to appear on its territory. Frightened and confused, Grumi uses the device to drive them away. But the device does not work the way Grumi thinks. The signal does not simply scare others — it changes them. Creatures exposed to the beam become increasingly aggressive. And if they remain under its influence for too long… the effect becomes irreversible. Now Grumi must face the consequences of the signal.

Thanks for playing my game 😃
I think it takes a long time to transform enemy to stone and after exploding them, and the drop is very rare (maybe my luck). The enemy doesn't kill us when they dash in us? Except for that, and the graphics resolution being very different between sprites, i liked the game. Good job :thumbsup:
Thanks for playing) 😊
nice visual style. 
Would be cool to have different enemy designs or the player to have different weapons.
Thanks for the feedback!
Сначала я ничего не понял. Потом я снова ничего не понял. Но затем я осознал, что ничего не понял. Это всё, что я понял.
Автору есть над чем поработать, но даже так игра уже весёлая, хоть и немного непонятная :)
По визуалу, звукам и дизайну всё в игре хорошо, надо поработать над понятливостью :)

At first I didn't understand anything. Then I didn't understand anything again. But then I realized that I didn't understand anything. That's all I understood.
The author has some work to do, but even so, the game is already fun, even if it's a bit confusing :)
The visuals, sounds, and design are all good in the game, but the game needs to work on its clarity :)
 👈 this is great! why don't I dream about this? 😁
The font in the tutorial is a bit hard to read but I like its presentation and the game is not too difficult to understand so that's not a big issue.
Great game! Very cool stuff.

Sidenote: The itch HTML5 version was broken on my end, I'm using Google Chrome
Movement is generally much more intuitive with the keyboard, and user experience is important.
My browser's audio was broken so I had to come back and try again, and the sound design is solid. Well done there!
Thank you for checking out my game. And good luck 😉
