Bullet Hell

This short game was made for Bullet Hell Game Jam 7 (https://itch.io/jam/bullet-jam-7).

All visual assets were created during the Jam except for one enemy, which I recolored and modified from an asset pack by o-lobster (https://o-lobster.itch.io/), as well as the death animations, which were also recolored versions from that same pack.

The sound effects used are from Asteroids Asset Pack by Hat Tap, pixelqube (https://hat-tap.itch.io/asteroids-asset-pack. Special thanks to them.

The game was made in LÖVE (https://love2d.org/) using three additional libraries made for the engine: serpent, sti, and bump. I reused code from a framework I’m building to make top-down games more efficiently, but the game’s core and all gameplay were created during the Jam. 

This framework is still far from finished, but it already helps me a lot, and using it for this Jam was a great test. Unfortunately, I didn’t have enough time to put together a team, but I hope I’ll be able to for future jams.
