Wow, TYSM for such detailed review!
Yeah, sometimes random just kills by spawning tons of asteroids and viscous wheel reaction prevents to stabilize well and... ggwp
There is a little invincibility window after getting hit + I added a little push from the bottom to help player get shield back, but ofc I need to re-visit many parts of balance.
Also, thanks for suggestions, some of them are really interesting to implement in future
