A cool juicy shooter with simplistic but stylish graphics, and I liked the music!

What was bugging me a bit were the nice but slow restart animations. I’ve lost quite a few times, and I would have preferred to get back into action quickly.

Clearing the stage after taking damage is an interesting move, but resetting the player’s position felt somewhat distracting for me.

Also, I was missing the enemies quite often. Maybe increasing their hitboxes for bullets would help, or decreasing the spread, or at least increasing the rate of fire. Otherwise, I was spending quite a long time running around and waiting to recharge merely to miss again.

Not related to the game itself, but I think picking a more interesting name and having a more elaborate thumbnail would make more people notice the game. I think a simple GIF showing a bit of gameplay would go quite a long way since you have plenty of action in the game.

But overall, great job!

:O This game is so satisfying! The graphics are very nice as well :)

One thing I would say though is to have a system to prevent the enemies from grouping together, maybe something like having a repulsion force so that if two enemies are too close, they will automatically get forced away from each other.

Super juicy, had fun. One thing I’d say is maybe do a little pre-spawn effect for baddies? most of my deaths were from a guy that popped up right where I was going

Game looks great, and the game feel is very good! Like you said the theme doesn't really fit, but its still fun. I do wish there was more movement options, but I really like the balance of having to avoid the edge of the screen.

Developer

thank you. I wanted to add a lot more mechanics but I didn’t have time. I used most of my energy making it feel good to play, and it sounds like I succeeded. 

Developer

yeah thought about it. I almost did it but then I realized I didn’t have any main menu so I made that instead. And then I ran out of time. Sadly. The game is still missing a lot of stuff.
