Pew Pew Pew: Danger Zone!

Lose health, gain bullets! Shoot or get shot! Collect powerups! Beat the boss and the highscore!

"Pew Pew Pew: Danger Zone!" is a minimalistic shmup with bullet hell tendencies, created during Go Godot Jam 4. The theme was "LESS IS MORE", and thus, the less health you have, the more bullets you shoot. I'm incredibly proud to report that the game placed 21st in the jam, and even managed to secure rank 9 in Gameplay!

For a look behind the scenes of its development, take a look at this write-up about it on my blog.

Would love to see some highscores shared in the comments 😊

A fair warning - I only started getting into gamedev and Godot about a month ago. I by no means expect the way I solved things to be the best way, and I probably did some horrible things here and there
