This has a lot of potential and is pretty solid for a jam game. The opening was kind of weak and almost made me want to quit but the gun upgrades sold it. Blowing people away with such fun weapons is really enjoyable; I almost wish you'd start with the first upgrade you encounter.
The enemies you have to take forever putting bullets into in the beginning are frustrating especially since they are pushovers once you get an upgrade.
If you press F and change the gun to hi-power you should blast through them like hot knife through butter (even with the starting gun) :) I think I should edit it so start on high power mode instead of the lower power. (Actually I'll do that now.)
I'd of liked to toy with the lo-hi settings more if I had more time but alas, game jams :P
It is a good game, designed to be an old school run & gun, like it has to be played on Mega Drive for example.
There's some lag on it though, that made me rage a little by taking unnecessary damage even for the regular enemies.
Some complaints:
There are numerous glitches in temper gadget. Scene one: there's one flame pit where you don't take damage when walking into it. Scene two: the destructible blocks can't be wall jumped off of, which makes the lava pit section of the stage really hard to do.
I would love to see this on a console as a bigger indy title. Maybe on the switch or the 3DS. Maybe for all platforms or steam. You got something going here man.
Cool
So this was a cool game I like the idea of it as you have shown some really cool music and and the graphics we're pretty smooth as well so nice game and some fun gameplay I think you should make more like this one it's a good game and can't wait to see what else you make
~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Maybe some extra stuff like some bonus area for more exciting moment in the game
