Hi, I tried it but didn't really get it. I kept matching the enemy but it never seemed to do anything, did I miss something?

Hi, thank you very much for trying our game jam game :D
May I ask you where you played the game on (browser or emulator)? It should work properly on most GB or GBC emulators and on most browsers, it only doesn't work on mobile phones. (Sadly itch.io at the moment does not have full integration with these)

The game itself flows as follows:
- The opponent shows up carrying a shield with a letter symbol upside down
- You select a bullet (letter) to use and then you shoot:
  - If you selected the wrong bullet (letter), the bullet ricochets at you and you lose 1 heart which is indicated in the bottom corner of the game screen
  - If you selected the correct bullet (letter), the bullet pierces the shield beating the current opponent and the screen goes black while the game proceeds you to the next opponent without you losing any more hearts
- This loops infinitely until you lose all of your hearts


I hope that this helps with the confusion :)

Hi, thanks for coming back to me. I was playing in on the browser on my laptop and it never looked like there was any other opponent, just the same guy over and over.
