Cool boss rush game! I got to the "coming soon" screen after boss two, so I think I beat it? I love a good old fashioned boss fight and while the second one just kind of sat there, the first one was pretty cool! Neat game!

Nice arcade game, but I recommend the following:

1. Let me me know how to hurt the first boss.

2. Enemy health bar and screen shake to communicate you hurt the boss.

2. Give me a small sign and a few seconds to react to the second boss attack.

Interesting game, really laggy in my browser for some reason. Visuals are really nice though, very good

The second boss could use some foreshadowing on their attacks, because getting randomly hit by a giant laser beam isn’t fun. Also, I really don’t think this game uses “one the edge” - it has no more risk than your average game (it’s better than not using boss though, since “on the edge” was an “optional” theme).

Well ya you are right

Visuals seems to be inspired by "will you snail". Some polishing will be great, but the basics are here.

Do my shots hurt the boss? It looks like it just goes through him so I was not sure though it does seem to stop the falling things so I though perhaps after I did enough of those it would trigger something but nothing seems to happen. Perhaps if the were was some feedback to indicate when the boss is hurt and how close to death they are it would help answer these questions. (when you have time of course)

I will add hp bar for bosses after the jam and boss 1 has the ability to stop getting hit and the other one can only be damaged by hitting below his face.

I like it! The simple graphics with the glow and processing look really sharp. The first boss kind of reminds me of will you snail. I see the vision of the game you were going for (if we had more time) and it's pretty cool. Nice job!

Felt very smooth, but I didn't know if I was ever doing anything. Also, sometimes the best music is no music (I learned this from my last game jam)...

Hope exams went/are going well!
