LOVE IT!!!!!!

This game is AWESOME! I love the graphics and the game mechanics. I am now trying to beat the insane difficulty, but it's so hard! Hard but fair.

it's cool, but too intense for me

nice photoshop skills :)

a fun little curse could be to have enemies spawn slightly offset from where the exclamation mark point

this is really neat, the only thing is that i wish more of the cards were gameplay changes rather than just visual changes. Some of them like the color palette dont rly change the gameplay too much, and having most of the curses make the game harder to read is not the most fun for me, idk if thats just my expirence. I loved the cards like jammed, ones that affect battery life, etc.

freakin love this game

really neat.

This was real fun. Thank you!

It's a really cool game. The only thing it would be nice to see more gameplay oriented curses in contrast to ones that just alter the visuals.

Really nice game dude like the idea of curses making your run harder as you go along :)

This is super cool!

Good concept I love this game

This game is really fun, but it's generally not a good game to play on a Mac/Chromebook or any device with a touchpad instead of a mouse.

It's not even the game's fault, it's just that aiming by holding down the left-click both makes your finger cramp and makes your aim choppy or just inaccurate. Trying to balance that and moving at a high-speed pace to dodge makes it super hard to play.

The game is a ten-out-of-ten, but I'm just sad I couldn't fully play it. Maybe add a different button to use your flashlight so you can both aim and shoot without it being annoying too? (F for flashlight maybe?)

Hey! Hope you don't mind that I made a vid off your game. Love the concept, didn't expect the visual curses to be that detrimental lol. Looking forward to the next game!

Pretty cool concept, could  be easily expanded.

Hello, I recently started channel and decided to make this game's gameplay video as my first video. I really like this game! I played it much more often than I thought I will.

Hey man, Awesome game.. Can i get in touch with you regarding how you created this game? Please email me at zahidahmedshariff@gmail.com?

fist play through, by the boss i didn't have my cursor, OR LIGHT BEAM, i was completely blind, beat it with only deaths though!

(1 edit)

yooo same but i didnt get any deaths

the game constantly glitches and  makes you stuck in a corner unable to move, I can't beat the boss because of this, otherwise, amazing game!

Very fun game!

One thing I didn't like was the random palette modifier, I thought it'd be a harmless one but some of the color choices actually caused me physical pain IRL. It also seems like it'd cause issues for colorblind players.

Aside from that, it's a very interesting game concept, inverting the formula of picking random upgrades into random downgrades instead.
