I restarted until I managed to beat the boss with some hps left as the game is cool so it was worth beating the fair way.

It was fun! The game looks good and music is great. It controls well and you made a pretty great implementation of the theme with a super cool overall staging, it was cool at the beginning being surprised that there was no command to shoot, then the scale when you shrink is great (the map was welcome) and the game ends with a satisfying boss fight with 3 cool bullet patterns and the appropriate life bar. The difficulty of the boss fight was perfect as is, although I'm not sure it exactly works as intended like mentioned below.

The only thing I missed was some sound effects on hits. 

I guess the rooms other than the boss could propose more of a threat. Also there seems to be invincibility frames but in the same time not, I don't really understand how it works, the boss fight was all the more fun this way but I think there might be something to fix although the game would also probably then need another balance pass (like giving only half hps to the player)

Thanks for sharing!

OMG thank you so much for this long review !

To begin, I'm so glad you enjoyed the game and you already played it multiple time, that sounds crazy to me !

A lot of things are rushed or not implemented, that's the jam life haha. I didn't manage to take the time to implement a good death/checkpoint system so I chosed to just not let the player die, I think it was an ok trade for a jam game. Actually there is a sound effect when you take a hit, but it's mixed way too low in comparison to the music. Again, it's something I rushed and didn't take time to adjust in the last minute of the jam. There is also 0.5s of invulnerability frames, and I'm not aware of any probleme with it but I'll investigate a bit, since I want to work on the game again to polish it a little more ! 

I'm so glad you enjoyed the boss patterns, the graphics and especially the music made by my friend who work with me on this game !!

Thank you so much again for this review !!

You're right, I just played once more and then you should completely forget about all my invincibility frame part, I dreamed about taking more than one hit from the boss but it's not something that actually happens, sorry about that. ;)
