It's a fast-paced shooter where rules switch every 10 seconds.
During first phase, both you and your enemies can only hurt each other. The second phase is where things get hectic - no one can fire bullets, but you start attracting all of them and they deal damage to everyone, even those who shot them. Player's health replenishes every two waves.
Instructions are found in-game. Hope you enjoy it!
XNA redistributable is necessary to run this game.

That's a neat concept. It's always cool to smash into enemies fast-moving particles orbiting you.
Didn't work for me :< Keeps crashing before starting. (Windows 7)
I loved the minimalistic graphics that still gave a sense of "juicyness" with particle effects, very pretty.
Fun too.
Zelosfan, do you have XNA redist installed? I guess I should've mentioned that before.
Does not work for me on Windows 7

I don't understand the mechanics, it seems to shift between magnetic mode and not on a timed basis. Made it very hard to predict what the bullets were about to do.
Interesting and fun concept! The changing background colors were also nice. I accidentally skipped through my high score because I kept tapping keys :/
Nice one, a little bit hard to understand what is it about at first, but its easier if you get used to it.
wow, great little game
it's impossible to keep track of those bouncing bullets - so everything seems very hectic, but I like it :)
very well done, good job
very interesting
Would prefer more contrast between my own and enemy bullets?
Prefer just make square vs circle?
Really cool game. You added some really cool game mechanics while still retaining a sense of complete simplicity. Great execution of your idea.

TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Seems nice :D
