Very familiar mechanics, reminding of space invaders/galaxian, provides a cool challenge of when/where to shoot the increasing fire rate, or even shot in the diagonal while moving.

Cool game, and awesome music too! That last level was hard. Could have used more enemy variety though.

This was a surprisingly fun game! I liked all the effort you put into the vfx, and loved watching that little transformation animation.

i love the idea here! however, i played the game for a bit, and i'm not sure if it was an aspect ratio issue or something, but I didn't see the little "bar" at the bottom of the screen that i see in the screenshots to fight against, well, yourself. not sure what's up. seems really fun though!

Really cool concept and neat presentation.

It really felt like every shot was a decision that mattered. :)
