Everything is collapsing. Stability is falling. You will die.

A top down shooter game where you must survive by slaughtering enemies in an insane and unstable world. As the stability keeps getting lower, more wacky and uncharacteristic things happen.

Ok I actually got a bit scared at the screen jumping around my screen, that was honestly nicely done. Good jump man

Amazing submission, it's genuinely scary which I did not expect. Well done I love it.

That was unexpected! This game really was unstable :)!
Actually very fun, i didnt expect some of these mechanics to happen at all!

This game is trippy! I really liked the idea and thought it was executed in a really cool way too! You really weren't kidding about the epilepsy warning though, that certainly added to the unstable feeling. The gameplay felt very erratic (unstable) and it kept me on my toes. I did feel like i died very quickly though all of a sudden, even though i had a lot of health. Overall, very cool I had fun!

Well that certainly put the hell in bullet hell. I love meta effects like that. Like a game can have all sorts of shenanigans happening safely inside the game window, but once a game breaks its window like that, things get freaky.

I'm not entirely sure what I just played, but the tts voices and glitchy effects were rad. I also like the enemy variety and just how screwed up things start getting once you hit around 130 seconds. Nice one!

A fun shooter. The audio was frustrating though. Rather than the voiceover, prioritising sfx for player actions, and to indicate when enemies are spawning/shooting/damaged etc, would have been a much better use of time, and help with improving the gameplay. I loved the window size growth after dying: not something I would expect! Thanks for sharing.

This game is really neat and the way the theme was used is perfect! Good job!

Some really fun and neat ideas in there. Kind of feel like I downloaded a haunted game lmao. Perfect fits the theme.

It's a very unsettling atmosphere due to the graphics, lack of music and scary voice overs. The goal is clear from the get go but then completing it in this uncomfortable mood didn't make me want to continue trying.

I love this game so much... It is creepy in a way that just makes sense for the theme, and is by far the best take on the theme I have seen. Incredible game! Very well done! I love how the window scales when you die, really neat feature that makes it seem super buggy.

Nice, scary game that fits the theme really well. I like the player walk animation.

It took me a while to understand what all the text on the screen meant, but once I started I couldn't stop. The gameplay is very satisfying and the audio really helps add some personality to the game. I feel like it could have used some background music, or at least some sound effects for when you shoot your projectiles. Loved the lose screen!
