Wow, this was surprisingly good! The sound and visuals aren't the best - the graphics have inconsistent pixel sizes and some feel blurry - but the gameplay is very solid! Small bullets and a hitbox smaller than the player sprite is always a good combination, and it's used well.

I think my only real issue is that the laser enemies can shoot from offscreen, and that they don't have warnings for where they'll shoot. It's kind of easy to focus on dodging other bullets and not realize they're about to shoot

Other than that though, it's a really good game overall! It just needs some graphical polish, I think.

Thanks! This was my first bullet hell game and I learned a lot! I wasn't focusing on the graphics as much as having a playable game. I wasn't aware the laser enemies were shooting off screen that's annoying!I ran out of time and couldn't finish all the polish I wanted and I think that would have improved my game a lot. I appreciate your feedback and can't wait for the next one! :)

This game is so much better than I expexted!

I expected a generic nes styled shooter but this manages to be enterteining and maintain an interesting difficulty. Just sit at the bottom of the screen and spam spacebar will make you win in most other games, but give up strategy in this and you'll be sorry.

Great entry!

I dig this! I won my first try!

I really enjoyed the sound design - nice work! Some of the bullet patterns felt extremely hard to dodge, even at the very base of the level. Also my ship felt a little slow to control, but otherwise, I really enjoyed it!

Nice juice and particles, the pixel-art was a little inconsistent with the pixel size being different for every sprite, wish you made some nicer bullets, made them glow or bounce, just something to make them more noticeable and nice looking!
Congrats on finishing in time!
