When I first started playing I was like well this seems ok but a little bit slow but then I died and the music kicked in and it sped up and that really got me going! Great job! The jumping might need some tuning as I found myself hitting the head and killing my momentum quite often.

notes from bubble tea shopnice one, although i like i a little faster, shooting down/up would be nice (same for enemy)

Running to DeathLove the metal gear + contra aesthetic dude. Music pumps me up. Small criticism is the speed of the projectiles, it's kinda hard to dodge. Very good visuals though :)

Dungeon of the DEADFun game! Great art and music, I was a bit confused on when I died, a health bar would have been great. Other than that good job!
