You finally made it! Short and cool tagteam action I just played!
I think yall nailed everything - the combo-based score attack combined with the action game dynamics feel like condensed management with no boring part.
My favorite is, I see multiple enemies lined up, I wait for them to go green at the same time, and BANG!! The visuals and the sound feedback sell the smashes so well.
Maybe I'd have liked a more Touhou-like or a more video-gamey tune to go with the game but nevertheless I'll give high scores overall, it's well deserved.
