Haha I did not expect that boss to go bullet hell on me!
Much needed boss after the basic first part.
Good job!

Best game so far... NEED AXE! ARG!

Fun concept. One bug i found is that if you die during the boss battle you respawn there with full health and no way to damage the boss.

Love the bullet-hell inspired boss! Nice game, great graphics. Audio gets a little repetitive but the game is challenging and I spent quite a lot of time playing it.

The SFX work really well, and the game is juicy in general!

That was cool, the art style is consistent, and it was even challenging at times dodging all the projectiles. Overall it was good fun!

Initial part was easy but fun. Boss part was hard, couldn't beat it and miss the axe. Fun game, well balanced

I liked the art style and the genereal mistery of founding out what lies beneath! The gameplay is simple and fun (although its a bit repetitive). Maybe tuning down enemy health slightly and adding some fun physicalized death reactions would help. It reminded me a bit of Nuclear Throne.

One of the better entries to this LD, really liked it, nice job!

Fantastic game all around.

Super fun! Wish there was a third weapon.

I wasn't able to beat the boss (probably because I use a laptop with a trackpad, so I can move and aim at once), but I had a lot of fun. Probably one of the best LD games this go round.

Best entry I've played so far! I finally was able to beat the final boss! Very satisfying and challenging gameplay. The graphics are great and the sound effect snappy. Love it!

Bullet hell bro fist for this entry!
I haven't played a melee Bullet hell for a while, great game!

Fun and satisfying. :)

Bullet hell for the win.

Nice entry. I got annoyed by the controls until I realized I can just hold down the button, I didn't have to keep clicking! The controls are actually pretty smooth.
One more weapon (a range one) would have been nice!
Anyway, I think you have pretty good mechanics to make a large scale game from here.

Excellent! With all that frenzy, my left mouse button might have lost a few months of lifespan! Special thumb up for the graphics and the universe... :)

A pretty nice game, and I like the variety and difficulty progression :)

Really well done game. I like it.

A lot of fun. I felt very motivated to keep playing and beat it!

Nice! This with music please

awesome game! here i thought i bet the boss and then .. had genuine fun playing it!! really good work. Hope to see more from you in the future (- :

Nice game, attacking is very crunchy and satisfying! Could use some music though :)

Like the graphics!

Great game.

Enjoyable art style, and fun concept. Well done. :)

Love the art, and very satisfying to play/control. Top job!

One of the best! Liked a hole lot. Sad there was no music. Made me think about nuclear throne.

Awesome fox-game :)

Very entertaining game! Would have been nice to have some music during the bullethell portions of the boss fight. Overall great work!

It was cool that the boss had multiple stages... nice graphics as well. The sound effects were monotonous though.

Solid game, puts mine to shame. The balance of the weapons/their drop rates seems a little off, and I got the same bug as popogames. Still it was fun.

Wow, this was a really fun one! Those graphics are quite good and the boss reminds me of some of Chrono Trigger bosses (which is cool ;) )

Heyyyyy, that was awesome. Completed it too. Could have done with a few more weapon types, but hey, it's amazing for such a quick turn around.

Awesome work !
Your graphics are really cool (:

The gameplay started out pretty fun but then got really repetitive. Wish there were more weapons to play with. Good job with the art! The attacks always felt really nice.

This is fantastic. I like the trade-offs of the long, quick sword, and the short, slow, powerful axe. Great character designs, and a super fun game all round!

Wicked graphics and pretty solidly implemented good stuff. With more types of enemies/attacks this could be bomb.

one of the best so far - added to my favorites - great job

Phew, managed to beat it on my first try with 6hp left. Good graphics and effects and the gameplay, while basic, worked nicely. Thanks for the spoiler alert!

Great game! I especially liked the boss going danmaku, that was unexpected.
Only drawback is that I spent some time grinding for an axe, and it got lost when I went to the boss...

Very funny pixel art style.

Nice game! Bullet hell boss was a nice surprise.
Repeating swooshing sound felt too monotonous, if your game had music this would have been so much awesomer.
Graphics are very detailed. Art Style reminded me of Nuclear Throne.
Great job!

What!
They are very similar!!!
Very Scary O.o

Really fun little game, super polished and addictive! The boss is a tough one!

You should consider making more levels =)

this was alot of fun.. hard to crack those rocks though :)

One of the best games in this LD! Add a background fighting loop and it will be awesome.

Really fun game, sweet graphics as well! I included it in part 11 of my Ludum Dare compilation video if you'd like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/-vf2U372Ego

Fun game! I really enjoy the graphics, and whacking the enemies to death is very satisfying. I do wish there was some music, but overall, really well done!!

Fun! I found the 4 stones oddly compelling from the start

Holy Hell! Awesome game, I suck at bullet hell tho :)

Solid game with slick gameplay.
Didn't expect a bullet-hell, but that's a + for me. :)

Really good game!
Some feedback on the player and towers life would be nice

very well done

Really good game! Love it!

phew! beat it with 4 health

haha that took a few tries. Great game!

You won my heart when it went bullet hell!

very fun!

Nice! I beat the game, it was fun.
I liked all the graphical feedback but the sound was lacking.
I see some Vlambeer influence ;)

Died on this guy: http://puu.sh/8Bf7W.png not sure if it was the last one, so hard XD wish the boss had a health bar. And what was up with all the swords? I just wanted to keep my axe ;_;

I never managed to dodge the orange boss (second phase), so it killed me multiple times. Good thing there is a checkpoint just before the boss.

I think more feedback than a single sound when you are hit could be a great addition, but otherwise this is a pretty awesome job!

Kickass game. Cool Sprites. Rad story.

First part was a bit bland. But the second part I really enjoyed Good job!

Nice game! Somewhat reminded me of "Binding of Isaac" and some Vlambeer games. Very polished and fun to play!
I could not beat the bullet hell end boss but the chicken and shooting eyes were cool! Some background music would have been cool but it's still a very good game!

Cool game, really like the graphics style! :)

Really cool game, so fast paced!

ccol stuff dudes!
Has an awesome feel to it!
keep up the good work

It's a nice little game! I like the art, though it seemed like it was missing some sounds. Music would've been nice; even a little ditty that plays when a level starts does wonders for the mood of a game. For future reference: it's standard practice in bullet hell shooters to make the player's collision box very small (even just one pixel). This makes dodging bullets more satisfying and less "cheap" feeling.

yeaaahhhfffuuuu
