Retroflect by pkenney
Retroflect is a shoot-em-up where you can't shoot.
Since I think Jam games should be fun for any skill level, this game has no death. Instead it has transparently dynamic difficulty that changes with your performance.
The true scoring mechanism will reveal itself if you fill the difficulty meter.
But don't worry about that, just have some fun!
UPDATE: Windows build added for download

I love this kind of game, but feel difficult to deal with high speed bullets. Put it to a corner is the only way for me to get a full rank.
description sounds interesting...
The gameplay feels dynamic and challenging, also, I like the fact that the difficulty and the level can decrease
I noticed that by letting the game run without moving or rotating for a while, the level scales by itself to the maximum one, which is a bit weird.
A score system and a leaderboard would be a great addition to it! And maybe also some hp/number of lives feature, as the game as it is now has no lose condition (from what I have seen)
Also, by the way, thank you for your useful feedback on my game ;)
As others have mentioned, the central control is too complex at the moment for the fast reactions the gameplay requires.
