Love the character and the contra feel is real. It's really cool when you get into the cave and it goes dark. Definitely needs a grace period on respawning though.

Pretty cool level design and shooting mechanics. some obvious polishing issues, could definitely use a short invincibility timer while spawning. Ended up in a death loop for a while on the last boss while trying to spawn. But nice submission overall.
There's a real gem here, I think, with a little more work, it could become a great game. Great job!
I completed the game twice, and I'm very happy I did as the first time I got overwhelmed a bit by the difficulty but the game is actually fair as you pick all the weapons, advance and assault the enemies, I think I died maybe twice.
The game feels very, very good. The visuals are stellar, the controls are perfect and the sound effects juicy, all in a perfect NES package with all the right speeds. The ammo weapons are satisfying and the boss and half-boss fights are perfect NES ones again and they're very fun to deal with. Finally the difficulty is perfect in the end.
Great game!
FINALLY! A project that wow'ed me! I had expectations when I saw the captures on Discord and I have not been disappointed. This project is in need of some additional work and stuff, but it's turning out great. Keep it up. You have a masterpiece in development, here!
If this is not in the "Top Ten", I'll be disappointed in the review base. :(
Notes:
- No pause button? That makes it more difficult to write up a review of this game. :/
- Thank goodness there was no lives counter. I get DESTROYED while playing through this.
- Couldn't get to a box I could destroy since the screen went past it before I could zap it.
- No reset option to try again? I wanted to play another round! :(
I loved the graphics, it really feels like an actual NES game and it’s very charming. The gameplay is pretty solid and the game is enjoyable. I appreciate that the game doesn’t make you restart the level after a certain number of deaths, since I died quite a lot. Good game!
Really great crafted game. I really liked where the color palette for the little fox fella changing from it's normal one to a blue one for the transition between the forest and cave, a pretty cool touch. But I want to say something for the gameplay. If you could, add a timer that stops enemies from shooting when respawning, It will make the game fell a lot more polished. Kepp up the great work!
The game looks a lot like something from the NES era, and it's really fun to play.
Some of the graphics are lit, feels like a NES game for me. I don't like those robots spawning from behind... stupid robots
Neat game, very reminiscent of the Konami NES games like Duck Tales, which is high praise :) I love that art style. Very cool game, nice submission :)
