Awesome job getting something fully together! Variety in boss fights was fun. Definitely difficult, which I get, but I would have preferred to not have to click as fast as possible to shoot what seemed the right amount. Otherwise killed it though!
I love shmups so my ratings are totally biased 🙃
My only real complaint was that I wish the attacks for the Crab Pulsar had different sprites, so I could tell if the attack was going to be a beam or bullets. I spent that round trying my best to camp out in a few spots and not move at all.
Beyond that, every death felt like a skill issue instead of the game being unfair, especially Sagittarius A. I managed to weave in-between the bullets once or twice and that made me foolhardy enough to try several times more 🫠
PS - I also kept expecting graze mechanics and got way too close to bullets, but that's entirely a me problem...
Love the visual style and the ending. Nice job!
Simple game with cool patterns and designs! I like the paper sprites. The attacks of the final stars are pretty hard to avoid.
Classic case of not wanting it to be easy and therefore boring. It's my game and I think I've beaten it all the way through maybe twice lol.
Thanks for playing :)
