I enjoyed playing this game. I felt that the mechanics were unique. I liked the turn-based feel too. It made me want to strategize better. Good game!

Why hasn't this game got ratings till now ? The Turn based idea followed by the gunslinger action plus that eerie sound in the menu. Just wow. I would really like to see this game come to full fruitition. Nice Work @xk-the-name .

Hmm, it's almost like a 2D version of SUPERHOT. =) I like the visuals and sounds. The mechanics is also very good. Nicely done!

The mood of this game was really great, and the sounds matched it spot on. Great job.

Maybe I am doing something wrong... After Unity has loaded, the screen just turns gray. Only me?

When I first pulled up the game, I immediately felt chills from the music and setting. Just about everything about this game is just perfect. The audio and the graphics work together very well to establish an eerie mood, and the gameplay is also fantastic. Honestly, this is the most innovative game I've played so far, and I would love to see an even more fleshed out version of this game. Great job!

Great. The kinaesthetic felt really good. But I find it a bit boring after a while. Maybe the lack of options (just shoot and move) and the fact that a relatively brute force approach seem to often work ? Still a very good job for a jam.

It's amazing that you implemented progress saving, had not expected it! I did not get the reloading mechanic (why is the gun only half loaded each turn?), and some more pickups would have been nice. Great entry overall!

Really fun, well made game. Great use of the theme. The level design was great. I would love it if you added animation movement to the characters. Great Job!

One of the best games I played this jam. Great art, theme, sound effects, concept and mechanics.

Only thing I had a problem with was shooting without moving. Didn't seem to work for some reason.

Congratulations on work well done :)

I had fun! Turn based alike theme was great made! Only thing I didn't like was that there were no music playing in levels, only sounds of gun shooting and EW EW when you got hit by enemy. Either way, great job!

By far the most fun game I've played this jam. It really manages to scratch the "superhot" strategy/action itch. Tons of polish went into the gameplay and level design.
