Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

• This game was really challenging and fun. The art is simple and gives a cool 2d arcade vibe, and the combat is satisfying. I think the increase in difficulty should be met with somewhat of an increase in available power ups since the boss gets more powerful until it's nearly impossible to remain alive. I don't think this needs a dramatic adjustment---just something small enough to make it seem plausible that a player could win. The only major issue I had was toggling the shadow element. Pressing Q did not work.
• It's definitely a "pick up and play" game, but I was left with a few questions: What happens if the boss touches me? What happens when I "kill" the boss? And most importantly, "How do I shoot?" Even if these questions are answered in the GDD, and if they can be learned through trial and error, they ought to be self-evident or shown to the player in some way
• Pretty fun game to play. Took me a bit to realize i needed two of each color to be able to fire. Also wasn't expecting a phase 2 and 3. Sound effects were a little jarring which may deter new players. May also consider another feedback to the player for how long they survived to try give them reason to continue playing.
