Wow this game is great, it is making me enter release title review mode...
PROS:
- Great art style, the title-screen looks amazing and all the UI elements feel neat and themed. The characters are also really pretty
- The sound effects are pretty good, but the soundtrack is simply amazing. It is stuck in my head right now, and I've been sitting in the main menu for a good time now to simply listen to the music
- The concept is simple but effective, you create your own bullet hell. It is well implemented and really leaves open room for your own strategy.
- It might sound weird, but I noticed the health system was really effective. It is nothing revolutionary, but seemed to work really well for me. I went from 1 heart to 5 and back many times, before finally dying. I think because you control your "challenge", the suspense is always healthy
- I think it was a really good choice to make the enemies static. This really sets the focus on dodging your own bullets and that is really strong design, especially with the slow bullet speed which is essential to this game.
CON(S): (Something really small, I am only being nitpicky because the game is so good. I simply hope to provide useful feedback)
- The pacing felt a bit slow. I only played one run, taking me about 20 minutes. It felt like 5-7 minutes of the run were very introductory. After about 2 minutes I was hoping there would be a lot more enemies, because I was mostly waiting for something to shoot. When the enemies became more frequent the game quickly became a lot more difficult and fun.
I thank you for the great experience I had when playing your game.
Thank you, it was wonderful
