Thank you! At the moment, stages 1-10 are randomly generated with increasing difficulty and chance to spawn more difficult enemies. Then it goes to infinite which basically continues to increase the difficulty.

Thank you! Yeah, I would like to have added music. I did try but it sounded awful so thought it would've been better left out lol

As others have noted, the particles and aesthetic are top notch! The gameplay is also really fun and the shop adds a nice extra bit of depth. I think the freeze ability could be made a little more useful, I didn't encounter many situations where it could've saved any health. Other than that though, awesome entry!

Thank you! I agree about the freeze ability, however it was all I could come up with for the game with the limitation, while trying to make the rest of the game lol

What a nice, meditative game. Upgrades felt super rewarding, I zoned out and relaxed in bliss the whole time :3 


I love the aesthetic so much-- the particle effects were especially pretty.

Hi! Nice pico game.

 The art is very smooth and satisfying and the animations are also very cool. The game can be kind of cheated by rapidly switching between lanes and rapid firing the gun. The metal enemies are a nice addition. Also the upgrades are cool, would love to have seen gun upgrades of some sort. I got to stage 10.

Thank you so much for the review! Yeah, the switching lanes cheat was an issue I found when playtesting - I added the 2 other types of enemy in order to reduce this issue, but it still definitely exists.
