Nice Game. I like that you have a tutorial n everything at the beginning. The mechanics are pretty cool and overall the game looks well put together. Graphics and such could be better, but this is a Jam game and for that its actually pretty decent.
Awesome visuals, really hard hitting sound design, unique and well executed core mechanic, good stuff. The main problem, though, is that it's WAY too hard. It took me 5-6 tries just to get through the first wave. Enemies spawning all over the place, really really quickly, etc. If there were a few easier waves building up to where the game starts now, that'd be great.
I really like the concept for the gameplay, though I think some slight changes would go a long way. The way the player attacks feels ...stiff as-is. Just an idea, but maybe you could throw the Doomerang in the direction you're moving/facing/aiming instead of having it start off stationary. Or, maybe it could bounce twice or more before returning since bouncing it off the walls is already so satisfying. Things like that that could help smooth out the gameplay for sure. Nice work though, love the art, sounds, and music!
