THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE

You are stuck in an endless cycle of defeating your past selves, in an attempt to be the only one left standing.

One room, one self. Become trapped in a bullet hell of your own creation.

PLAIN INSTRUCTIONS

WASD to move, mouse/click to shoot. Turn your past selves to ghosts before the timer runs out by shooting them one by one. Your movements are recorded, and your laser shots will become projectiles next round.

I really loved the idea, original and addictive  :)

I was strategizing a bit and i found a good trick for surviving (at least works for me), i managed to reach 28 repetitions but i'm sure i can do more!

Such a cool idea and real fun to play even though I'm terrible with bullet hell games! :)

the only way to end the cycle is to kill all the clones and then run into a bullet... in other words, make it so that none are left standing.

Excellent concept and execution! This game is definitely addicting, I can play it for hours. The art is absolutely adorable.

Great game!!! Loved the concet, the art, the music, and most importantly the gamplay!!

Excellent take on the past selves idea! Very well executed too

Really good! Simple but smart concept, executed quite well. I like how the difficulty curve is very natural, and the mechanic of extending the loop's time both forwards and backwards after each iteration is brilliant. The best strategy is to create a conga line of clones that execute each other, but the most fun strategy is to run around and shoot everything and dodge everything you shot :D

I love this. It's such a good idea, and it's so much fun to play. Giving 5/5 though would have liked more juice.

God same, it's really lacking in some proper screenshake.

I like this one.
