Thank you very much for your kind advice.
Every week, I’ll share the devlog and make it better.
It is still in its infancy. Please look forward to changing.

That is to reiterate about the bullet spreads and additionally strongly recommend you find your own unique mechanics and design, beyond just “being a voxel version of an existing game”, which is exactly what it currently looks like, down to the UI.

Clones with slight deviations don’t help the gaming industry and potential players will be annoyed more than interested in playing.

Thanks a lot for your feedback !!
I agree. I’ll check and replace bullet-spreads.
And now we’re working on replacing map theme which reflects our narratives.

Can I reach you by email for more feedback, after change something?
If you don’t mind, please contact me. john@teamappetizer.com

(Albeit a cool reskin; I love the breakable doors.)

I do hope the bullet spreads will be replaced in the future with unique ones and that they can figure out a unique art design which reflect the supposed theme better. (Aside from the playable character there’s nothing farming related, but a lot of it is Enter the Gungeon related.)

Thanks for good article!
We are inspired by Binding of Isaac and Nuclear Throne,
but we are inspired by Enter the Gungeon much more. (as @Billy Markowitz said)
And big fan of Enter the Gungeon.

To bring the advantages of the existing games well, and
to make the games have the characteristics of Appetizer Games,
we’ll do our best.
