What is this other cube called?

There is no cube on this one tho,they have a head shape.

Ok. What is this cube that looks like a head shape name?

no names for anyone officially yet.
But the first enemies you meet are space undeads,that's all I could say for now.

;-;

Has a very cool arcade look to it. However I found to game frustrating rather than fun. The darkness aspect combined with your low health means you spend most of your time dodging in an environment you cant properly see which I found frustrating. On another note this game weirdly reminds me of Hotline Miami.

Thank you for your feedback! This game is for people looking for more challenge. The darkness aspect has a trial and error part where the player has to see how the level at first runs and then succeed. I understand your frustration,I do believe I could have added more lights and indicators.
The game was inspired by Hotline Miami but another reason why it might remind you of Hotline Miami because it is top-down :)

id suggest adding faint shadows to make the walls slightly visible godot’s light occluder and emitter should be enough to do that

pls make linux export ;-;

I will try but linx ports tend to be broken.Tho you can play the web version,that has linux support.

Though it is frustrating to play, the game got an atmosphere and it looks good. The GUI position needs to be positioned better, imo. I'd make it much smaller and make it follow my character, so I don't have to look away from the level to see the parameters. Overall, nice game!

Thank you so much for the feedback! 

Hmmmmmmm..... Very kool 7/10

thank you for the kool ranking

Super stylish top down arena shooter. Not being able to see all the geometry in the world is very challenging, but rewarding too. It took me multiple tries per room, as well as some hunting around to find the exits, but had a lot of fun. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for your feedback! I am glad you liked the game :)
