A panic induced, fun little run. Figuring out the best way to navigate the place and how to best shoot the rockets is an interesting challenge.
I did have some lag on my machine though, making it more challenging than it needed to be. And I could skip the doors by jumping around them, but that may have been a speedrun tactic.
That survival section at the end was quite an exciting finale.
Made it!

I had a bug where I died right after the tutorial door near the start after triggering the flashing red light and it reset me to before the door but the flashing light was still on.
Sadly most of the enemies could just be run past and didn't have to be fought - same for the doors. The section with four enemies that could shoot down at you while you parkour'd across the gaps about half way through? You can just run on the enemies' own platform and go past them, only needing to make one jump at the end.
Also, you used Godot and hosted on itch.io so you could have easily exported a web version and uploaded that to itch.io. You'll get more plays if you have a web version than if people have to download an exe.
That's panic there alright :) The survival part at the end is tough, and did me in. At a certain point I respawned there and always fell off right from the checkpoint. I think the best I could do was 48 seconds left to go.
The tilt effect is great!
