So what would happen if you could only do 1 action at any given moment, and what if that action was nowhere in your control? Well for my submission to GMTK I submitted late and didn't get in; same here but the admins are pretty amazing. Terrible joke aside, the way I incorporate the Theme of "Stuck in a Loop" is that all the abilities that you are able to use are only accesible through a timed loop. Want to shoot that bad guy but you're stuck popping in and out of a bubble? Tough luck you can s-

Anyway I had lot's of fun creating this game, and I hope you have fun playing it, I'll attach controls down below, and descriptions of all 4 abilities available to the player. Also vote 5 stars on the music just to see if it's possible to rank so high there with nothing to show for it.

Developer's note:
When it comes to game jams I just love my 2D arena games, so if you wish to be impressed, please do not look at any of my other games that are basically the same.
