Crownfall
Super simple game based on 'Swordshot'.
Your bullets are your health so make sure to time your shots to avoid hitting the shields surrounding the crown.
Made for the 10-Minute game jam (didn't manage to finish in 10 minutes but decided to polish it a bit more and share the project, my time was around 18 minutes).

Crownfall is a charming retro arcade shooter that distills classic gaming into a pure, addictive experience. Players control a rotating crown at the center of the screen, tasked with shooting and destroying all the stationary targets around them. The player's main challenge is shooting a crown. Moving barriers further complicate your task, requiring precise timing to land your shots. Visually, the minimalist pixel art is clean and stylish, with a stark black background that makes the glowing sprites pop. Its strength lies in its simplicity, making it incredibly easy to pick up for a quick "one more try" session. Fans of high-score chasers and classic 8-bit games will feel right at home with its focused design. Overall, Crownfall is a well-polished and delightful indie title that proves simple mechanics can deliver a royally good time.
I love the color schemes!
I'm glad you like them! I'll be updating the game in a few days with more colors, animations and polishing in general
