I feel a kinship with this game because I was originally trying to make nearly this exact same thing.
- The spritework is amazing. Lots of charm and character!
- The level design is great! (Up until the multi-hit dragoons came in at least.)
- The audio is amazing, masterful even.
- The controls are responsive, But the bullet does not always travel the way it says it will.
- The levels get seriously unreasonable, and it feels like you are just aiming randomly by the end and hoping things work out instead of using any kind of logic.
- The egg bots especially hurt the fun, because trying to make the bullet come BACK to them is really not as fun as "ok and the line connects through them, onto the next one." and it drastically reduces options and fun.
- The final boss is not the same in this way, as the multiple hits actually feels good here. But they also have way too many enemies to clear out in addition to the boss, that its to the point the boss isn't even the goal anymore.
- Your story writing is fantastic, art direction fantastic, setup, ambience, and humor are perfect.
Beyond a few issues like I mentioned, everything is truly absolutely amazing. I think I found the favorite to win the jam. And I have no doubt in my mind that you will place highly, so at bare minimum expect a prize! As a catgirl Vtuber, I greatly enjoyed the catgirl part! That was my favorite~ Absolute gold~ Here is hoping you place first!
