I just played the Window$ version through WINE, works fine even under Wayland because the window positioning is done through XWayland. When WINE soon probably switches to Wayland natively you can still probably run it through XWayland with an envvar.
Holy crap this is the coolest idea for a bullet hell I have seen in a really long time! Im going to be playing this for a really long time to come. I downloaded it for free but then i get some money expect a fat purchase of this to come your way! keep it up! I cant wait to see your future endeavors!
yipe. i do think the balancing needs some work but tht is kind of a nit pick. wold honestly be happy to pay money for a more fleshed out version of this
After you kill your 6th boss, it just becomes a Bullet hell-hell of a game. I've even gotten TWO bosses on screen (wrym and slime) and it was just a mess to play. I just couldn't see my character.
steam only, although 2.0 will remain on itch.io forever for free so consider it a demo for the full version, which is said to probably cost $5 with localisation cost differences
The game is very cool, this is the first time I’ve seen such an idea, but it starts to lag a lot when you have a fire ratelvl 10-15 and multi shotlvl 10-15 due to the effects of shotslink to video on youtube, since there are a lot of opponents. Please add a setting to turn on/off effects from shots. and add a setting to change the size or number of coins on the monitor, because of them nothing is visible.
the idea is INSANE, i love the concept, it is just so annoying that the difficulty is made for dark souls player XD i gave up before seeing the entire potential of the game, maybe a set of difficulties could be a lot better
everyone is saying change upgrades and change costs and change everything pretty much, but its fun making the upgrades dont do as much as you think because that makes it hard and i like that
P.S. please make so if you click X out windowkill to stop playing please make a are you sure pop up before it closes because one time i was playing and the smiley boss we tryed to click x on him like normal but we clicked X on windowkill on accident :( so please make so if you click X out windowkill to stop playing please make a are you sure pop up
also please make a description of what the perks do if you hover over them, just another idea
i disagree with you, actually you think the difficulty is fun, but some of those people think not, not every peoples have the same habbit about the difficulty of a game, that's why pickable difficulties were invented, maybe that could be the answer to satisfy everybody
yeh i think too, for me it's the next logical upgrade for the game, make it fun both for people who just want a lot of fun visual effects, and people who want to struggle and have a hardcore experience
Cool game, but balancing is not very good. Its not worth it to get Peer or Drain, Bellow and Manifest (Multishot) are the only good things to get with stars. while Peer does become a health beacon, its not strong enough to be worth it.
Recommendations:
Peer - Instead of just being a viewing window that you occasionally access for health, make it so you can actually shoot there, making it a permanent part of the screen AND/OR, make it so that, while it is overlapping with the main screen, it boosts the size of the screen.
Drain - when it does enough, damage, it gives the player health. Give it AI to focus on killing enemies.
Bellow - remove the "Panic Button" part by making it a charged weapon. if you just press it, it does less than currently, but if you hold for a second or two it hits harder than currrently.
Manifest - either make the star cost higher for multishot or implement limits on multishot OR rework it to make the Manifested item appear in the shop (or get its own slot in the shop until you Manifest a different item)
yea so I had like a game like verry long it got supe laggy and it crashed so I dont have my hightscore. maybe optimize it a bit or make it harder. I had a highscore of like a couple milion like purple xp.
but overall its an amizing consept, its simple but looks good.
The idea of the game is really cool and unique, I love the way the window moves around and opens more windows to spawn bosses, but it get's very annoying and frustrating way too fast. As soon as bosses start spawning, the window gets way too crowded as you can't only focus on killing enemies anymore, you need to expand the window to get to the boss. Though when you are near the boss you might need to back up to avoid taking damage. But guess what! You can't, as theres a fuck ton of enemies blocking your way and hindering you from expanding the window, which causes it to get smaller and smaller until it shoves you right into the enemies/bullets and you just die. 3/10
The triangles move slower if you're close to them, so if you edge them, the enemies aren't a problem while you fight the boss. You also need proper upgrades like multi shot and wall punch for the first boss to be easy. You need to reroll shop to get them. You can't try to save your creds by not rerolling, that's dumb.
You need bellow perk for smiley and piercing upgrade for the second boss. The third boss takes a while but if you have enough speed you can run through the slime without taking damage.
(Although I also find it a bit annoying when I can't push one side of my window sometimes after using Bellow. )
Very fun game, but gets quite repetitive at the later stages. My poor pc clocked in at 1 FPS when firing.
Incredible concept, very clever!
Love the breakcore music, very vibey and enjoyable.
The best strategy is upgrading Bellow as much as possible. A single blow with high level Bellow can neutralize anything and everything in the whole monitor. Basically the almighty push, and the cooldown time is very short later on. That was my main tactic, but firing is necessary for bosses, so it's basically a big flashy slideshow.
Simply gave up, I got quite bored. Don't get me wrong the game is very fun and clever, but it is repetitive.
The bosses are magnificent. I love the idea of Wyrm and Smiley.
Game gets a 9/10 from me. Great idea, like the style, the vibe, and overall gameplay, but gets repetitive and PC destroying later on, which is the limiting factor.

A game for Windows... literally
Wow. (Wrym came after I died)
Never let them know your next move if smiley is not always on top:
Alt tabbing+Alt+F4
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately I couldn't have used this tip when there was two smile guys.
Great job man, love this game
How the hell is this not more well known? This is fucking amazing! It's genius! Every bit of it!
linux version pls

there is one now.

Will 3.0 be free? Will it arrive to both Itch.io and Steam, or only Steam?

This is the first itch game that actually blew me away. Amazing job and idea!

I didnt think about that thats a good idea

DUDE ADD MULTIPLAYERRRR!!!
imagine a coop and a big screen,
the possibilities are endless
Imagine Androidkill lo

Issue: Boss slid into one of my monitors that isnt *on*, but is part of my screen layout

I am not a designer, but these are my ideas
Game keeps crashing a little bit after the third boss but other then that its fun
i really like the concept, but my computer won't let me run it because it makes a new window :(. can you try to fix this?
its okay if you cant :)
yea so I had like a game like verry long it got supe laggy and it crashed so I dont have my hightscore. maybe optimize it a bit or make it harder. I had a highscore of like a couple milion like purple xp.
but overall its an amizing consept, its simple but looks good.
7/10
Would be a good game if it wasn't so annoying.
