Great vibes! Love the themed areas and a nice variety of enemies imo. Weapons felt nice and distinct, though some of the faster enemies felt almost impossible to hit with the poison.

Crunchy in a good way! There is a fun, retro, spooky vibe I like :>

A unique game plan;

Side to side I run and gun.

Upgrades win the day.

I ran into a (helpful?) bug near the end where after dying my guy was able to slip through the walls or whatever and ended up stuck in a box near the bottom right, as seen below. About the game, it's a fun limitation being able to move only left and right space-invaders style. I'm surprised you were able to do this with Shmup Creator. I liked trying out the different weapons. I could see this as a survivors-like with progressive upgrades and effects you buy with gold and stuff.
