Fun waste of time for a few minutes! ASCII art was a really nice twist (reminds me of my child game "engine," where everything was just a symbol and you could move via wasd :P). Definitely fits minimalism--I liked it!

Lovely aesthetics, good job!
Takes me back to my Apple][+ days.
Nice job. I loved purchasing level-ups and the ascii art was great.
It was really awesome! It's a really good time-killer, finished the game completely with all upgrades!
Enemy bullets can be kind of hard to see when your ammo starts getting frantic
You did a great job with the ASCII art and the game itself is very fun! I can tell I've played too much Binding of Isaac when my immediate thought was the Envy boss :p
Very fun, the upgrade system make it addictive. Sadly, it slow down for me after lvl 5 (bad computer) so can't reach the boss (lvl8 just too slow).
I have to say that I am not the biggest fan of avoider type games. Basically its nicely done. It's very simplistic, which matches the theme right, but I miss some sound fx or music. Also, I found it a bit disapointing, that the graphics are in ASCII, but they flow freely on the screen. When I saw the screenshot I hoped for a "real" console game ;)
Awesome game man! Really fun to play :)
It felt like a minimalist bullet hell... which it is I guess. Fun! :D
I like the ASCII art, try use ASCII text instead of image and will be perfect!
addictive
Nice work with the ASCII art :O pretty impressive.
Fun game. Nice level progression, and I liked the shop.
Nice! I didn't expect to get so drawn in. :D
If I would change one thing though, it'd be to add some kind of animation or something when you get hurt - I kept not noticing!
Nice game. the ascii art was a nice touch.
Great game with upgrades on the levels. Very hard to turn away.
Great game! I like the visual style too.l Surprisingly complete and addictive o.O
One of the game I spend the more time on

Liked the graphics, missed not having sound. My guy did not shoot? Do I have to earn that or something?
