Persona by Cinar

[raw]
made by Cinar for Ludum Dare 51 (JAM)

Persona is a topdown shooter which I inspired from the movie Everythin Everywhere All at Once. Fight scenes there really had an impact on me. And the theme is kind of crappy. Sooo why not a lazy ludum dare?

Main Concept is U fight as different personas of your in different timelines. So every time your persona changes your health refreshes. Rest is pretty straight forward. Well known traditional indie shooter. I hope you ll havefun. Dont forget to check the quick tips.

Cool game and art style. The quick tips were a nice touch. I did run into a weird bug that caused my bomb count to not decrease after using all my bombs up. Other than that this was a solid entry!

I really enjoy how each character can be upgraded on their own. The map was quite bit though, making it easy and feel barren. Apart from this, each character felt nice to use, great entry!

Not sure if it's intentional but mashing the spacebar seems to allow you to change characters at will... which heals you. I'm not complaining, Loved playing as the ninja with massive slice range :D

I really appreciated the change in art style between characters, a very nice touch. The upgrades seemed a little unreliable - I'm not sure my bullet damage ever increased, and the magic AoE visualisation didn't seem to match its damage range. But lots of fun! 🎉

Cool idea for a top down shooter. I enjoyed the feel and art of the different weaapons. Speaking of art the visuals were awesome. Great job!

The game is pretty solid art and gameplay-wise. I did not fully understand what the 10 timer did in this case since I was able to freely swap between characters.

The character design is very cool though. I like how different each character is and it allows the player to create interesting strategies around swapping to a certain character. I found myself liking some character against some enemies and some other character for other enemies. So there is a merit in the design of these characters!

I really love the art and the differences between the different realities. The enemy hit number that pops up when you hurt the enemy was upside down. Quick tips were funny but it would have been more fun if the bullets had colliders. You probably just ran out of time. I would love to see you expand this with more realities and more mechanics. Music would be a nice addition too. Great job!
