Description
About This Game
No pain, no gain.
ArrowHead is a fast-paced bullet hell game… where getting hit is the only way to hit back. Meet ArrowHead the Apple. He loves the feeling of arrows digging into his core, but too many arrows in one spot would probably be more than he can take. His strategy: Rotating around the battlefield to ensure that he gets his fill of arrows on different sides. Having four arrows stuck to him allows him to unleash his inner rage and attack! The other fruits don't make it easy, but their arrows are the only ammo you get. Slo-mo dash to squash your way through bananas, blueberries, and worse until there's nothing left between you and the big, bad DragonFruit.
With hand-drawn 2D animations overlaid on a 3D environment, ArrowHead offers a creative, satisfying experience reminiscent of Hotline Miami and Enter the Gungeon. This demo was originally made in 72 hours for the University of Sydney Official Game Jam 2026 on the theme "Flip the Script”, which ranked in the Top 5 and was presented with the Best Characters award.
