Awesome game, my feedback is similar to others, with the game getting repetitive and there being less of an incentive to keep playing

I like the arcade style game.
Everything about it is pretty well polished and tidy. I would have preferred for some more frequent or permanent upgrades to the shooting because I think it might have made it a bit more satisfying. As you progress and get more numerous enemies, you also get stronger to be able to take them out quicker.
Otherwise, a really good submission.
Very solid entry for your first submitted project. I think that you have chosen a good type of a game in order to put in quite a lot of content. Few suggestion for the future (or a post jam version):
- make it bit more challenging - you have pletny of enemies already but it still lacks bit more "juice". You can easily add smaller/bigger types of enemies. You can even make certain type of enemies come from the right... this way you'll make player to be more active
- part of the challenge could be also fasten up the speed
- player could have different types of shots
- screenshake - is simple yet powerfull effect to juice your game
These are really just a suggestions that I can see, would make this game, bit better, but overall you did really great job! I see that there are also few things to polish, like stop the motion of an object after it is destroyed, as you can now see the score moving. These are really barelly a complaints as your game feels truly good for a jam game! Keep it up and thanks for your game! Good job
Thanks for the feedback! I absolutely will take this onboard for the future. I did try to add screenshake but it was way too late in the process and I couldn't make it work as the game was built to fit the main viewport, so when I added a camera it just destroyed everything haha. More learning to do on my end but I really appreciate the comment!
Apart from being a bit repetitive (pretty much always holding down the same button to shoot), I like the concept, and the graphics are unique. Impressive you did all this on your own!

I liked your game, I found it fun and the mechanics of spawning the buffs made the game better.
score: 14 000. it have so good pixel arts and sounds. mechanics are simple and well working
It's a good arcade game, the game can be developed further, there is potential
It genuinely is a wonderful game. The graphics, the simple sound - and the fact that it has a replay factor. Unfortunately, my high score didn't get that high.
A simple lil sidescroller game! The visuals and animations were great! Not bad at all!
I like the physics animation visuals and the added death animations of the game. overall, good game.
Love the animation and music, would love to see more chaos sooner though! Made it to 24k score before I needed to move on
The game is really fun, and the soundtrack matches the game perfectly.
Great shoot-em-up with excellent theming! I love all the little details to the animation, it really adds to the polish and quality of the game! Great work!
Sorry, I wanted to show your game some love but I won't download and run random executables. Consider making your games playable in the browser to reach a wider audience!
