p4int.exe: a micro bullet hell which takes place in a image editor.

CONTROLS:

  • LMB: Holding this draws paint on the canvas. Letting go sends them in the direction away from the player.
  • RMB: Clicking this uses the paint bucket. This kills all enemies on screen but has a 10 second cooldown
  • M: Mute music
  • F: Mute sound effects

This was a prototype "proof-of-concept" game I was making to test out the idea of a bullet hell which takes place in an image editor. It's lacking some content and polish, mostly because I wanted to get it out before I stopped working on it and it ended up in game-dev limbo lol.

Some things which might release next update (if there ever is one lmao):

  • more attacks/tools for the player!
  • more enemies / effects
  • better sfx and custom made music!
  • more overall polish.

Music is "Optimism" from @JayTee's Energetic 8bit Music Pack. Sound effects made using jsfxr.

Fun and polished game, got up to score 57420. I felt like the best tactic is just drawing circels around the player and spamming the fill bucket. The gameplay itself got pretty boring in later levels because there were so many enemies, you couldn't really dodge anything and it was all about spamming attacks. With more customization, maybe bigger levels this could be a really good small game. Also add to  controls that you can move with WASD, I know that this is something most people know, but I've spent first 11 levels without even moving (I didn't know I can).

Hi! Thanks for the advice, it's not often I get comments so I'm happy you played it! I'm not sure if I'll ever do a big update to the game but yeah I agree with all your criticism haha . Also you're completely right lol I never realized how not having WASD in the controls would be confusing.

Also I played some of the games on your page and they were great, seemed super polished and I loved the wave/level design on Bloodbot!
