Nice game! I was much better once I realized I took damage from hitting my own bullets. It led me to be much more careful and deliberate about my shots. On the second level, though, I took damage every time I clicked to fire. I'm not sure if that was intentional or not, but either way it was strange.

yea the second level is a janky mess that we tacked on at the last second mainly because we were experimenting

The gameplay is awesome!! Better indication of getting hit would be great, more gradual difficulty curve. I think this has lots of potential. Reminded me a bit of Geometry Wars :P

Thanks, It means a lot to hear that I made something fun. I'm not sure why we didn't add any form of hit indication, and yea the difficulty curve is rather f***ed. But hey, if someone actually enjoys my first game that's great.

I checked out your game as well, it's sick my dude. I especially applaud your use of the limitation to create such an interesting visual style.

After I fixed the game, I found out it was pretty fun, but a little bit too simplistic, maybe add better indication for being hit, some background music, and the enemies on level 2 are way too hard

thanks for the feedback! There's certainly a lot that could be improved on with this game. Maybe one day ill remake it better. Level 2 kind of sucks as it was tacked on in the last 30 minutes. We didn't actually test it much. I'm just happy the game is at least playable and we got it submitted quite literally in the nick of time. like 40 seconds left.  

Anyway ill be sure to check out your game as well.

I renamed the game in the last second but not the data folder. so if the game doesn't launch rename the folder titled power_data to Rikochet_data
