It's a very interesting game, I really liked it. I have to say about the error, it is better to type this into CMD, just copy the installation address or you can drag and drop the software itself into CMD.

Holy crap, how did you... how does this even... okay, this is one of the most impressive things I've ever seen on a computer. Not just games, not just apps, THINGS. This is astounding. This makes me want to go back over the history of everything else I've ever rated 5 stars on Itch and scale it back, because this just raised the bar into outer space. I love being able to drag the drain window over the bosses; I love the twin-stick controls (I was setting up JoyToKey to fill in for the arrow keys only to discover I didn't need to); I love how you can adjust the game's difficulty by changing your desktop resolution! My personal best (I can't seem to get a screencap attached right now for some reason): 991 coins, 635 seconds, 2678 bullets, 256(!) enemies, 4 bosses. If I may suggest some quality-of-life updates: some sort of indicator noting you can afford a new shop item; not locking aiming to a controller once one is used for movement (I'd really like to be able to use the analog stick in one hand and the mouse in the other, so I can still have access to dragging windows without changing the device one of my hands is using back and forth); this might not be possible to fix, but a boss first spawning in causes the player to stop firing, needing me to release and press the button again before something kills me, and that's awkward and feels unfair and ideally would be remedied if possible. I hope this goes viral and prompts a full experience I'd gladly pay for and becomes, say, the new Vampire-Survivors-level hotness.
This is a wonderful concept, and I'd love to play it more. However, I'm running into an issue I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing. I'm using Windows 11 and initially works well, but after a short period of play I just start moving without input into one of the sides of the window. So I cannot avoid enemies spawning from that side and I lose pretty quickly. Anyone also having this problem? Thanks!
This is a result of losing focus while an input is held. To un-stick the input you need to press and release the key. You can prevent this altogether by enabling “pause on losing focus” in the settings (Escape)

please keep updating this game or make a sequel, this is too good of an idea not to
I love this. I have a feeling I'll be keeping it on my hard drive for a long long time :)
GOOD!
Cool idea!!!
I had so much fun and an interesting experience!
honestly I could go on forever but it did get a bit tedious and just died on purpose
I guess it does have some limitation because it was made in 72 hours and I really wish for more contents!
for those who need some tips:
bosses dies after 3 teleport and get stronger after time so keep track of the teleport and kill as soon as possible
after killing first boss, pick drain and put it on the second boss, it makes killing the second boss easy
screen size management is key, so make sure to shoot each side repeatedly because they have some delay before collapsing on the player
Very funny game.
32 or 64 bits?
This is so great
OpenGL renderer seems to be superior for this odd type of game to the DirectX12/Vulkan renderer.
Good
What a simple but impressive game! The idea behind that is amazing! GJ
Woahh really cool!
DUDE THIS IS SO FUNN
One again, a very cute and fun game, with simple but powerfull graphics! Nice work for a 72h made game!

I just can't play the game. After launching the game, the window just closes after like 1 second with no error message.

Thanks. I've created .bat to open the game
Very long ago I played another game that played around with the windows, but this definitely is different! Really cool!

How do you even programa this :0
Is there a way to recover health
nevermind, found it, just random chance in the shop
This is incredibly fun, and such a neat concept!
WOW this is such a cool take on the theme and also just really fun to play! i love the pressure of the window shrinking in on you.
