Could not figure out how to shoot and had to go back to the page to check the controls. Having those directly in the game helps a lot, specially in a downloaded game. I think the bullet trail is a bit too much and distracting and the fact the bullet goes through the Boss without being destroyed or any kind of feeback, makes it hard to tell that you hit the boss and it's kind of underwhelming.

Cute game. Keep doing those. Good job.

idk why but I feel undertale vibes, I think you have a diamond here, boss doesn't stand a chance tho, I play tap titans while im in the loo.

the game was cool but i felt bad killing the baker lady because she did not even do anything and they just put her to war. but other than that it was bit frustrating when i got to the servent and had to restart all over again which made me a bit mad but other than that it is a nice boss rush game

Fun and simple game. Liked how the story didn't take itself seriously. Died the same time as killing the Servant so guess I sacrificed myself to save the world haha.

Pretty satisfyingly to play and beat, despite its simplicity. Really liked the sense of humor in the dialogue. I knew the second a character named "Sour Milk Dad" appeared, I was in for something unique.

Sound effects to telegraph the bosses' attacks would have been nice. It took me a while to learn to watch for the glow.

Nice little game !

Penguins!! Love anything where I can be a penguin. I enjoyed trying to hit that sweet spot of hovering right in the boss's area, but it was a little frustrating when my penguin would fly up way higher than expected. The simple distinction of horizontal and vertical projectiles added nice variety to the encounters. My biggest wish is that dying didn't send me all the way to the beginning of the game. 馃惂

Little aqward to get started, I also had to close the game with task manager.  I like the ideal, its kind of like a vertical flappy bird. The peingun is cute, the controls are responsive. I had to look at the jam page to figure out the fire button. Bullets (snowballs) could do alittle more damage, with the trade off of a longer shot delay to require me to be more accurate. My biggest complaint, to me, is the font choice on the introduction scene, I had to skip it. Over all great job, you should be proud of your work.

Understanding the controls was not clear.  Mechanics of the game worked well. I did have to Ctrl, Alt, Delete to exit the game. The exit button did not work for me.

The game play was weird, but the story was incredible: During the game the dialog kept in a one and great, but how you do choose of (from all the keyboard keys) to assign the backspace for shooting, and why the white snow blur on the whole wide screen still after the bullet has gone?

If you would like to use some other game engine than Unity, here are some behind the link: https://www.gamedesigning.org/career/video-game-engines/

You sure have the cool team and nice ideas, and hope you to join more into Jams and share the creations.

A fun game to play, loved the style and the humour used in the cutscenes.

Only thing I got a bit annoyed by was the enemy attacks, specially on the 3. boss, where it randomly attacks with on of the attacks which made it hard to know if it was gonna attack vertically or horizontally, and I needed to stare at the boss to know when it was gonna attack which made my own placement so much worse.

again, a really fun game jam game, with a cool design on the bosses and attacks, just a bit unfortunate with when they attack

I love the personality in this game, and how it doesn't take itself too seriously. The cutscenes made me laugh out loud because of how silly they are while having such simple graphics. The boss fights were fun, I could imagine more going on in them though. I wish I could hold down to auto-fire instead of mashing. I appreciate addition of a skip button for cutscenes, useful when i died fighting the servant.

The font was a bit hard to read. Loved the art style and music.

However I really could not understand what to do in the game. I flew around for a bit, wish the controls or strategies were explained.
