This game is pretty interesting! I included it in my compilation video series of a bunch of LDJAM games!

You got me with the art style, nice choice. Gameplay is fun but maybe a bit too limiting with the heat? I assume you needed to find a way to stop people from just shooting all the time so that they actually have to react when a wall shows up, but shooting is half the fun in these games, so maybe a different kind of challenge like making it so you needed to shoot a specific part of the wall would be more interesting? And I was wondering what would happen if a bunch of walls came after the other, is that just game over? My record was 898 and there was a time I saw 3 walls in sequence. Anyways, nice entry.

I love the old-style 3D graphics. I'm a sucker for that.

The game felt good to play too, but I couldn't figure out how to go that far :)
