Great game, you nailed it. The princess is much harder than the witch. The 1st time you see the statues that stab upwards and the vertical screen right before the boss are the hardest two screens. I had a blast, keep it up.
Thank you very much for the feedback. I'm thinking of adding extra abilities to balance the characters. The Princess can currently block projectiles, but I might add something more; for now, she's the "hard mode" of the game.
The biggest issue I had were hit boxes between the princess and the searchlights. Other than that, maybe give the princess just a little bit more range? Not much just like one more projectile length of range.
