Great concept! I loved the sound effects and music, too. I also appreciated that you could retry levels that you failed. ;)
Admittedly, I strongly preferred the ranged attacks because it let me more easily keep away from taking damage, but overall the abilities were pretty well balanced. (I did exploit blow's rapid fire and the knockback of abilities to prevent the boss from making it out into the stage lol).
Good job, enjoyed playing!
