FireFlies - shoot firefly game by wo_ri_gou_le
Hi! I'm so happy to show you my 2nd LD game! ^_^ I learned a lot since last summon, and this is what I came up with...
In a tiny bush lives many many tiny fireflies.
You play as a guard fly, everything's fine under your coverage.
Yet the bad guy comes (~~they always do~~), so go defeat it!
With the help of fireflies of course, you can grab them to shoot against the boss, or use them to upgrade abilities!
More about the game? Just Download & Play! (Sorry it's a 3D game so web version is not quite possiable)
According to previous feedbacks, here's some liitle tips due to my lack of careness:
_If you find it dizzy and motion sickness happening, try focus your attention spot on the player, this helps a bit. Also, shooting requires to hold shoot button, if that's confusing ~~it is confusing~~. _
**I didn't do that much optimization, I use a 1070ti PC, your experience might be chunky&chunky...
~~**made it, upload first, fix this page if~~ I wake up alive.

+ I think those things should be clearer, easier to perform or have some feedback that something is happening.
+ The constant spinning was bad for my eyes and stomach, and you have to constantly move to gather fireflies and dodge the balls, although I believe I almost entirely went only one direction.
+ I also usually sat far away from the center while shooting so only at the end I came closer and noticed the enemy was getting smaller.
+ The background was a little confusing at first since it had the same color as the enemy.
+ The art and sounds were quite pleasant.
- It took me some time to realize that shooting is done by holding the spacebar lol
- I experience motion sickness and continued play made me feel uncomfortable, unfortunately. I think this might be due to the unique movement trajectory of the spaceship and maybe some workaround here could help, but the camera view is indeed bespoke and unique
- I really like the sound effects! The audio and visuals work well together. Very good vibe on this one.
Overall, great job on this entry!
And a little more visible area behind character.
But its interesting to play! And it is a great job to make so much cool artstyle of circles and cubes!
(draw you this XP)
