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
like it
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!
yeah, the game where youre character get older too
Very damn nice. I love it how colors themselves are a part of the gameplay. Well done!
good game, I cleared!
I love it. Great job.
Great game it can't even load at all
it doesn't load at all keeps getting am error
the Colour curse made me delusional and very illusional
maltreating to my eye
hard asf i enjoy this gam
An amazing game, this is simple and awesome
Great masochistic game :^) Love it
I hope you don't mind that I used your game for some sweet...sweet internet clout...
epic
Really enjoyed this!
very epic
This looks fun and simple. Let's go...
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.
Hey man, Awesome game.. Can i get in touch with you regarding how you created this game? Please email me at zahidahmedshariff@gmail.com?
Great game, really interesting mechanics and fun gameplay
does anybody get a error when downlaoded that it says it cant find de pkj file or smth. its a fun game tho i dig it
very fun!! :)
Great game!
E
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!
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.
