This game is really fun! I really enjoy the bullet hell genre and difficult games in general, and this is definitely one of them. The theme was combined very well with the game's concept. My only advice would be on the aesthetic side, like the player's health, which is very hard to see, and a general polish on the menus. The art is already very good. Great job!!

This was a really cool concept, I love what you did here!
A few player experience issues:
I couldn't see the health bar on my screen and my initial thought was the bottom bar was my screen. So I guess: increase visibility on health bar and include a way of showing damage done to the machine that's more than just reducing the bar (you might look at fighting game health bars for ideas here).
A few iconic pieces for this style of game that I was looking for and didn't see: A pickup to improve damage output and some of the attacks coming toward you being destroyable.
Overall, I really enjoyed it :) I just assume we're all doing a gamejam to potentially improve our work, so I try to share a few thoughts on improvements!
WOW THIS WAS SO HARD, NICE JOB!!!
It was so laggy at the end but I was in competitive mode so nothing can stop me from trying again and again hahaha.
Congratulations!
I'd love if u can try our submission <3
Fast-paced! I barely got through, I think I had like 1 hit remaining haha. Good work!
Looks like the game is private. Might be intentional but just wanted to let you know.
