Got to 1.5k points on the first try. Quite cool game, not sure how I like the two different sounds being played at the same time when firing a bullet. Laser sound seemed like it would be enough. The jitter sound was quite annoying.
The game feels easy when I play it seriously and I was waiting for more challenges for 2 minutes, but I got bored and surrender at the score of 5.1k. I don't find this more than any other top-down 2D shooting game much. But it's a good game. Well done.
As others have said, this is a very easy game. I personally like my games waaaay to difficult, so I am not the best judge of difficulty. However, I still think I might be a good idea to add a few more enemy types to spice up gameplay. I do like the graphics, though. Good job!
Overall not bad. Very clean asthetic. Feel like there could have been more enemies, and some music would be a nice touch (though I know music is super hard to fit in a jam so that's fine).

Simple controls are the way to go! I really like the minimalist approach visually.
Got to 5860, was hoping there was more, maybe more enemies along with longer powerups or something. The graphics were clean and slick, liked the style. Just wish there was more.

Well polished experience. Could have used some music, but good job!
This game is reminiscent of diep io, where there are some bonuses, even though the enemies do not shoot, it was interesting to play the game in this form. But, as @therulermeasure mentioned, there is no balance here, that you will lose after a while, which makes it boring to play over time.
A clean and simple game that is still quite fun to play a couple times. The controls felt good, shots went where I wanted them, and the spawn rate of powerups was perfectly timed so I felt like I was always on the verge of timing out (final score 3170). I found myself wishing that there were more permanent powerups, having my speed drop back down when it ran out (with no indication of when that would happen) very nearly got me killed a couple of times. The simple art style works perfectly for this game and leaved no doubts what each element is going to do. Overall a very nice game, well done!
I really liked the minimalist feel you were going for and I think its a really cool concept combining the player's health and timer together! Some more feedback when you hit and enemy would be nice, I saw there was a small lash on the enemy, so maybe that just needed turning up a bit? The powerup was a nice way of breaking up gameplay and diversifying it, maybe an indicator as to how long it would last would be nice too. The sound effects that were there were also a nice touch and added a nice layer of polish to the game. Overall, I enjoyed playing!
Nice clean implementation. I would have loved to have controller support for this... maybe there is as I have a Logitech Dual Action and noticed the left stick moved the player but nothing else caused a reaction. Played several games using keyboard mouse. Fun little game, simple but effective mechanics. Was challenging enough for me. Not sure how it will be to play over and over... maybe there are further challenges higher up. Certainly I don't think I discovered all of the collectable items.
Overall I also enjoyed playing it.

I don't konw if this is my PC's problem or something, but i can not move at all with neither WSAD or Arrow keys. I could shoot via clicking normally but that's really just it. The visual and concept feel decent and I am having fun though. Good Job!

Nice, simple shooter game. Pretty enjoyable :) I was so close to the highscore of "OVER 9000" :P

Nice little functional game. Could be leveled up if you had more time to add other powerups and/or enemies and things. But either way, good job!
Cool little entry. Could benefit from a soundtrack but is still nice to play :)
Seems like the character doesn't fire directly toward the mouse cursor, at least in the web version, which is a bit disorienting.
