Are your lives appearing anywhere? It's been troubling me.
Nice surreal experience, I like the subtle fading sound feedback when an enemy dies and such, and I'm enjoying the game a lot because it plays at my favourite speed and the difficulty is right on point for my taste, multiple sequences which completely destroyed me the first time I can now almost consistently beat without getting hit, apprehending this game is a delight. I won't beat it during the jam, during my two last runs while typing this I finally reached the (final?) boss (the one at the end of the video below) and immediately died, nothing wrong with that.
Very fun one.
