Easier than it looked at first. I was able to get a couple of the spheres by sheer luck--I just rushed in and hit shift when things got cluttered. Regardless, it was still fun and reasonably challenging. Nice work.

A very challenging and rewarding game. Quite visually pleasing!

Not bad, cool twist of the mechanics!

Woah, didn't expect to see a bullet hell with this theme. A pretty unique take on those.

With more polish and better designed challenges this could be a success. There's some variety in the challenges as it is, but the patterns just don't feel very carefully tweaked. Can't really put my finger on what this is missing mechanically, maybe I'm just too used to Touhou controls and attacks.

Lovely little game :) I didn't find it at all easy though. Don't know how many times I died, but I kept trying again.

I beat all the levels! Woohoo! .. I wish I had read the instructions, because it was just now reading the comments when I realized shift did something .. that would have made things much easier.

I feel like 7 should have been the last level, man that one was _hard_! This is great, I usually don't enjoy bullet hells, but, I played every level and it was pretty fun!

Great job:D

Simple but amazing!! I beat'em all but 7 and 8. Is 7 even possible?? I went mad! :D Great idea on the theme!

Inventive twist on the format.

There's some really nice patterns but with instant death and just ditching you back to a level select it's really hard to get into the flow of playing the game.

A proper progression between levels and a smoother difficulty curve would go a long way to making this really good. Still had fun dodging the bullets though!

Fun, very difficult. Might be easier if I had a stick or gamepad instead of this keyboard.
