Interesting premise, it's like asteroids but more intense. I really wish it were full screen, I clicked off the window a couple of times and the instant death mechanic felt unnecessarily harsh. The graphics were simple but charming in a funny kind of way.

There was a fair amount of "clunk" involved with the dashing, it didn't feel very smooth and it was easy to clip the very edge of an enemies hit box (either your hit box or theirs was larger than the sprite) and die. Shrinking the hitbox down would help a lot with the feeling of fairness. The sounds were cool, I liked the kinda honky tonk accordian sorta sound.

With some polish and tightening of the controls and graphics, this could be an interesting little game. Good job!

The bullet sounds that come out with a harmony that changes is a neat idea. Also with the dash you have different sounds that go up the scale. I dig it. I think your collisions are a little harsh. The bullets are disappearing before they actually hit the enemies. Also, one hit one kill is pretty severe to go right to a Game Over. I would suggest adding a health and damage system. I think this game shows promise though. Good Job!

Interesting game with some really good sound design - I loved the musical nature of the bullets - but I couldn’t personally get super into it. Some feedback on when you’re actually damaging an enemy would be helpful (like a healthbar or something). A more dynamic background and screen rather than just being empty as is would be nice. I really did love the sound design though, and I think it’s worth building on. Nice job!
