Played with controller.
The good: Graphics are great. Music fits the genre. Controller inputs worked without issue. No bugs that I am aware of.
The things I would change: Needs to have an option to fly like an airplane. i.e. Pull back on the stick to nose up. Stick pushing right should roll right instead of yaw right. It was very hard for me to fly by stick with the way it's set up currently after having decades of experience with standardized airplane-like controls.
The things you did not have enough time to implement (things you could add if you keep developing this): A radar that allows you to know where the enemies are besides watching their shots fly by you and having to guess which way to fly next.
Overall, it's a honestly a great start especially considering only having seven days to get here. I would suggest playing a flight simulator or check out the Wing Commander series for inspiration on the mechanics of it all. Just looked on GOG and Wing Commander 3 (the best one) is only $3.
That said, I think it's a solid entry for a single person and I encourage you to continue this to the extent that you want to. Good job!
I saw your game in the "very long rate for rate" thread. My game is also downloadable. If you could give it a shot, I would appreciate it.
