This is a very fun game, like the other in the same jam in previous theme iteration, which is Gotcha Gun. A little bit less this time, and only one boss
Graphics and BGMs are always bangers. I like the idea of the stress gain/relieve mechanic. Being a way to control bullets, as well to increase chain is very nice thing, but as well keeping the stress at manageable levels by gain again from killing/grazing, which creates a really nice way to control difficulty. Kind of reminds me of some raizing games I watched, like battle garegga. I think you really did a great job on this one. I would still prefer Gotcha Gun imo, but this one's really cool too.
