Nice submission, and gave me a lot of atari 2600 nostalgia. You have managed to include a lot of elements for the jam, so congratulations! This game is looking really nice.

I liked the minimalistic style of the game. The background music fit in it very well. Great work!

The gameplay and narrative here is pretty fleshed out and fun! The graphics aren't the most polished, but the battle system is fun and frenzied. Some of the random encounters were tougher than any of the main quest ones, which is nice so most non-bullet hell fans can at least complete the game. The narrative's dialogue is fun and vaguely sarcastic, which matches the punk lo-fi aesthetic of the art. Awesome!

 A very surreal abyss. I really liked the simplicity for some of the character designs like the Snake and loved being able to talk my way through instead of fighting (cuz I'm god awful at the combat). Congrats!
