Nice work, I liked the aesthetic and the controls were solid.
Some more feedback when getting hit would be great, either sfx or visual cues.
Good job!

I liked the combat, but it felt really bad when you would get hit and you didn't even know why, it's nice to have a sound, flash or vignette effect when you get hit so the player doesn't feel robbed when he suddenly finds out he is on 5%

The audio was okay, but i wish some sounds (like the player shooting) where randomized so they didn't feel as static. Also the repeating song got a little annoying after some time.

The art was pretty nice and consistent throughout the whole game and had a nice feel.

The enemies had cool patterns and the boss idea was cool, i just wish there was some more communication to the player about getting hit, getting shot and stuff like that.

Overall very solid submission, great job!

Thanks for the feedback, ne_mene! I did have a lot planned for this game such as more visual feedback and audio effects, but not enough time. After the voting period ends, I hope to make these improvements, so I appreciate the detailed suggestions. Thanks for playing!
