You have an original and innovative core concept but it has unfortunately resulted in a flawed shooter. Having an invincible player results in gameplay that doesn't require you to be extremely precise in your movement and there is very little need to dodge enemies. This becomes really evident when you get to the boss battle and can just sit in one spot near the left of the screen and hold down the fire button until the health bar is gone.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>You added the enemy that slows you down, which works great for keeping the player away from the mana orb. Still, it's not enough to keep the game from being far too easy. The switching mechanic is also kind of strange. Maybe it needs more feedback for the player, and maybe it should be limited or have a cooldown phase so you can't spam it over and over to get the orb out of tough spots so quickly. The player feels REALLY overpowered here.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>And I don't want it to seem like I'm being extremely negative about your game. In fact, it's the opposite. I think that your game's aesthetic is wonderful and your characters are very memorable. It would be great for you all to keep working on this because it could be VERY VERY VERY awesome with some tweaks to the core gameplay. This looks like an extremely professional product and it would be a shame to not keep working on this. What you have here is more than just a jam game, it's a start to something much bigger.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Thank you so much for putting your talents together for LD and welcome to the newcomers on your team!"},{"author_name":"SiENcE","author_uid":"10298","time":"Dec 21, 2013 @ 12:48pm","epoch":1387629780,"text":"Very polishes shooter with nice graphics!
