10 seconds checkmate

Game is so fun and everything really seems so great. Very fun to play! I came up to Round 6.

fun, really juicy animations. I like the limited ammo and the unfolding chaos if you dont kill them before the round ends, or if you forgot to pick up any orbs.

Thanks @01edward01 ! ^^

@noam-zeise you need to pick up the blue Orbs!

Suuuper fun - great idea, great execution; extremely well polished, and simple yet pretty hard to win. The art (orbs, weapons, etc.) look epic!

@appleplectic thanks for playing =D

The Game is indeed very fun. Took a while until i noticed that i can take 3 weapons :D

Challenging but I like the concept. Artwork and music are great, really like the fast turnaround of the rounds.

Really fun + great art style! I was a bit confused with how the weapons were given out at first (nothing spawned after my first round), but I figured out I have to collect the blue orbs. Overall great stuff :)

Awesome ! @phoenixofforce thanks for playing ^^

Thannks for your review !! @noam-zeise

I love the style of this game alot, plus the feeling of splitting the pieces is very satisfying. Good job!:)

Thanks!!! @mistagiggles

Its so cool, I would be playing for hours. Love it!

Me tooo I can't stop playing xddd @rouxy THANKS!

Thanks a lot @bugbyte14, ... indeed very satisfying ^^

Great Game! Nice mechanics and well done polish.

Thanks @ry-for, it's a bit tricky at the begining but then it all makes sense! Thankss for playing!!

@arnochux Thanksssss

Wow, what an amazing idea! i love it. Only one moment, for some reason when i push a and d buttons, volume changing!

@omaewander thanks for your feedback =D

Very cool game. Really liked the idea of being able to trade the weapons in to get health back as that added a reason to go around the room rather than just dodge attacks. The music seemed a bit weird as playing it changed the volume occasionally which I dont understand? But the gameplay was solid and thoroughly enjoyed playing it trying to last a few more rounds than last time.

@kitkii thanks!! You understood all we were aiming for! ^^ The volume failing is probably you miss clicking on the sound bar, something for us to consider next time! haha thanks!

Great theme and really fun! I like how chess inspired the movement patterns of the enemies here.

(@martysarc thanks for playing

Love this game! It was super fun to play and the art was really nice too. It felt really satisfying to take down the chess pieces with a shotgun XD

Nice visuals and unique theme implementation! It plays well with lots of 'game-feel' - I especially liked how different weapons moved the player when fired. Enemy movement and death animations also looked really good!
Congrats on a great entry!

You checkmated my expectations! I was expecting a calm chess game, but here I am destroying the chess pieces!! (˃̶ᗜ˂̶)
That was a great first impression for me. The pixel-art is so clean, everything blends in together VERY nicely! The colors, the style, the atmosphere... I could make my entire comment full of compliments for the visuals, it's just so pretty.
Besides that the gameplay is also smoothly done, everything works and it is nicely polished. Let me get on the topic of game design - I like the variety of weapon choices you give to the player as well. I was real enthusiastic about seeing a new type of weapon when I kept playing more and more rounds.
I clearly enjoyed your game, well done to the entire team!（＾-＾）

Lots of cool mechanics here, it's a fun game. Well done!

Love the chunky sounds and satisfying gun play.

Really fun and well-polished action shooter game and fits well with the theme.

Cute game! well done. I like the mechanic to choose your weapons.

Fantastic game, the animation and art, just the overall polish is some of the best i've seen this game jam. Love the sound too. You really know how to implement game juice. Can't really thing anything to complain about, feel like 10 seconds is a bit short for each round but you it's the theme after all.

That was a total blast! Highest marks from me!

@zubi thanks for taking the time to play and writing such a beautiful review

@chloe-tong @tom-stephenson @i-wrote-it-myself @defilerzero @lbrande @whenyoucantfindafriend @digitaldude555 @ideaspersecond THANKS GUYS ! ^^

Ooh! You made a chess game too! haha!
Really nice game! It had just the right feeling of being hard but I still had a chance to survive even when the rng was against me. Although I lacked the skill and just died most of the time :'D

I have to admit, not exactly what I expected when I saw the chess pieces in the thumbnail! A cool game nevertheless and I liked the visuals! For some reason, it always told me to pick 3 weapons but I never had more than two to choose from.

I survived 8 rounds ! good game(rate back?)

That was a great game, had a lot of fun! I love the graphics & the feel of each weapon. Only feedback would be that the end screen is quite abrupt & the spikes colliders feel a bit unforgiving. But this is definitely one of the most polished games I've played this jam. Great work & I've subscribed to your itch for updates :)

Awesome art style, really fun gameplay and it felt super polished. Great job.

Tight and cophesive little game with great use of the theme, although it took me a couple of rounds to parse the orb/weapon/health economy.

Very fun game, I love the system with the orbs, thenumber of weapons and the life regeneration. Maybe the shurikens are too annoyins to use, and the uzi really not pratical, but avoid items is a part of the game too.

It's really good balancing, I think. With good designs and sounds/musics ! Very good work. ;)

Great graphics. Slick survivor like game.

Man i love bullet hells, loved the artwork, i think the player move speed should be increased, as it's a bit hard to manuver around enemies
