Excellent challenge! Pro tip: you can fire off a shot or two before time slows as you enter each stage. I enjoyed the choice between deflecting incoming shots versus scoring as many hits as possible. Visuals were simple and clear. If I had one nitpick, I'd say that when time speeds back up, it feels a bit abrupt or jerky. Making that speedup a bit more smooth would make it a little less frustrating to lose, because I often can't tell what hit me.
All in all though, a very enjoyable submission!
