Since this is our second time participating in the LOWREZJAM we already had to face the challenge of the strongly limited screen space once before and were prepared for it.

This game gave me flashbacks to my childhood (and that damn battletoads level). Very polished. Awesome work.

5,5,5,5!

The difficulty is on point. I love that the different levels of difficulty don't just merely up the number of enemies. I did a dodging game for the 2017 lowrezjam, and I really wish I had thought of having the upcoming obstacles blink before they come on screen. Great way to deal with the space constraints.

Cute graphics. Not blurry at all (a pet peeve of mine this year). Love that there are different "death" animations.

Great sound. Love that the title screen is a slowed down version of the main theme. It's cheap and easy, but it works really well.

I'm slogging through entries at random, and it's a joy to get to play something this quality.
