Solid entry! Decent audio, nice particles and visuals. Well done!
Nice little game.
The Linux-Zip seems to be a little small for a game made with godot, so I guess it can't be extracted because it's incomplete (the zip-file).
However, I was still able to run the Windows one with wine.
Try things like lmms or fl studio for making music. It's probably a much better then using audacity because audacity isn't designed for music composition AFAIK.
Very simple and fun, overall a pretty good entry, well done!
Nice idea. Maybe if bouncing in the border it could have been more dyncamic. Music is too much
Got REALLY slow with a whole bunch of the enemies on screen (for reference, got up to 77 points). If you'll allow me to get defensive for a second, it's definitely not my PC (OC 2600k/OC 780Ti). The music quickly got grating (so much so I had to mute it). It might sound like I'm full of complaints, but it was a fun simple little game, and pretty good for less than a day's work. Especially the particle effects, I'm not sure I could pull that off in such a short time.
I like the concept, but it was really difficult when three of them all block you in, but your shield doesn't last long enough to hit them all. Outside of that one thing though, it was pretty fun.
I don't know why but my interest perks a bit more when I see a game made in something besides the status quo stuff like Unity.
Looked like something starts to hit performance on my computer if I get too many suns at once, guessing all those particle effects?
Nice work for 24 hours.
Simple but enjoyable, as mentioned the particle systems start giving my computer a hit.
I got to 61, it was pretty laggy at that point, because I'd mostly been avoiding instead of destroying.
This was a fun idea. and the shield timing felt just right.
Good work!
I'm not really sure how this is supposed work? The shield-weapon didn't seem to work for me, as far as I could tell.
I got a score of 82 :) but it was running very slowly. For particles, it can be a good idea to create a certain number up-front, (say 1,000) then reuse the objects when they disappear and when new ones appear. An advantage of this is that you can stop them spawning if there are already too many on the screen.

Mini Submission FAQ
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.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
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 at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
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. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
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.
interesting game :) well done bro
