Very fun. The timer being health is a great idea. Bullets were a little fast for me but I enjoyed this overall :)

Pretty classic space shoot'em up game! I really liked the pixel art and animations~

That was pretty cool! I think the player firing sounds were a bit loud but other than that the art is great and the game is well polished. Love the juice.

Nice game! Found it quite challenging. Love that there's no long text tutorial, everything is immediately understandable. Wish there was some score meter or something. Good job!

P.S. nice logs there :)

Fun and polished shmup! I think the scope is appropriate as a jam entry, but with more time bosses/something to shake up the game loop or difficulty curve would have pushed this to a "next level". Overall really well-done gameplay. Haven't seen many shmups with a charged shot as the core mechanic, so that was really welcome. Great work!

Tremendous job! I had a lot of fun and I also enjoyed the elegant design of the enemies. They were simple but each enemy played a different role that made me adjust my playstyle. The credits were also a nice touch. The only bug I found is that if you hold down a movement button while moving from section to section, it will consume energy, whereas if you don't, it doesn't consume any. Other than that the game is very polished, plays great and looks great.

That was fun and well polished experience :D I loved the use of same type of enemies with different spin on them and overall the game feel was very good. It was fun to play!

Good job! The game was a lot of fun and felt pretty exciting! Could have maybe been a little harder towards the end.

this was such a fun game. it is my favorite so far of the jam. an additional scoring system would have been a nice touch but that is being nitpicky. great game!

Great entry! Goes to show that a simple idea executed correctly can still dazzle!

Also f**k those purple sh!ts :laughing:

Nicely done shooter, great art!! I feared at one point the difficulty was ramping up too quickly but then it calmed down again, it's nice to have moments of respite in-between screens sometimes so was glad to see you got that balance right :)

Did you write the music yourself?

I liked the fast pace, and the different enemy patterns. Very cool, great submission, congratulations!

Awesome game! The in-game mechanics are really well done.

Very nice polish and nice job doing the core well. I only wish I could have gotten some power ups to make my guns better. Cheers!

nice music, sounds, and graphics. It was pretty hard. I played it until i beat it. For some reason i thought there would be a giant rabbit or something so i kept going. The credits stuff was really cool!

This is such a well-polished game! I especially love the music. Really fun too!
