Excellent art! I think my biggest suggestion is that your weapons could be better balanced. The game is nearly impossible with a pistol, yet too easy with the rifle. One way to improve this could be to give weapons some drawbacks, like maybe the pistol never needs to reload, but the rifle does! Also, once I got my first 100 kills, the camera zoomed to the top left of the screen and I could no longer see my character. Not sure if this was a part of the gameplay (like losing an eye or something). Overall a good start to a fun take on the classic twin stick shooter.

After playtesting the game after the submissions phase ended, I realized it was incredibly hard with the pistol and shotgun, and that you basically had to use the rifle to beat it.
Also for the camera issue, funnily enough losing an eye as a sacrifice was thought about, but that's actually a bug. The camera wasn't being enabled in the later stages.
If you want, I recommend trying the updated version, it's now beatable with any weapon, while still being a challenge for all of them!
