Hey Levi - Good job getting the game up and running.
Looking at your YouTube video, I think the game looks fine. You have some nice parallax going on in the background, the gears do look like gears, gameplay looks fine
I'm not sure if bouncing gears seems like it would be better suited for a more puzzle-oriented game since you're resetting the gear's lifetime. In your gameplay you are throwing it at the ceiling and basically cheesing enemies in tight places with multiple bounces - is that intended?
Good luck man. Just getting a game to a point you can show it to others is an accomplishment!
