Really awesome visual and juicy polish! I'm a fan of roguelike-ish genre so seeing one made for a game jam brings a smile to my face :D

Here's my feedback. The joystick seems to not work at all, the shoot button works though but not the movement. The screen shake gets too aggressive when there's a lot of things happening, could maybe tone it down as it kinda hurts to see the screen when it happens lol. Then if I'm the spectator of the game, it wouldn't be obvious to me which is the player and which is the enemy at first glance, having a visual distinction between them like having the enemy on different color would immediately improve that. Especially on an arcade machine scenario where there would potentially be spectators watching someone plays.

Overall, really love the polish you made for the game. Lots of variety to choose from when playing and a really nice take on the theme. Great work!

yea im working on the enemy and player distinction stuff, idk abt the joystick and sorry about the screenshake thing :/

No worries! That aggressive screenshake only happens when spamming a lot so it is not really affecting my normal playthrough, you're good :D

Sooo ahhh, I was playing until like, stage 30 and noticed that it was noticeably slightly lagging; I kinda want to limit test it. It did blackscreened me one time, so I really need to stop.

Anyway, this is what I found:

- I have only one bullet left, maybe it's because Duo Augment?

- The game became noticeably lagging around stage 30.

- Thorn seem to not worknig on long-range enemies even if I ran into it (Maybe it's designed that way but idk)

- Power box adding Augment seems not to have been added after 2 boxes. (The augments can still be found around 2 more times.)

- Permanent bullets seem to not adding sometimes (Not sure if it's because I didn't picked up all the bullets before choosing Augments)

- I'm basically immortal after around 35+ stages
