It immediately reminded me of UN Squadron. The difficulty was tough but not so much to be frustrating. Controls felt nice and it was good upgrading my ship with a bunch of guns. I was caught by surprise when I noticed they have limited ammo and have to recharge. I enjoyed my time very much with this game.

UN Squadron was one of my favorite games growing up! The game is very much inspired by it, Phalanx, Einhander, and Darius Twins.
I expected the reload mechanic to be an adjustment to players of the genre and hope it wasn't too jarring. I did find it useful in limiting overall DPS and incentivizing weapon diversity. I do like the reload in this context compared to weapon pickups and limited ammo.
Thanks for taking the time to play and review!
