Thanks for the comment!  The high difficulty was an intentional choice, because not only did I think it was more chaotic but also it left room for people who are potentially really good at bullet hells to shine. When I play I usually get around 10-20 deaths (my personal best is 8 at the moment), but I have a friend who does play these types of games and he apparently somehow minimized it to only 1 death. Don't know how many attempts he needed to pulled that off, but that does prove my game can probably be perfected nonetheless at least. 

Thanks for the comment! There were certainly some patterns I implemented that were less thought out than others, but for the most part I did try to implement patterns that not only looked cool, but also could be dodged perfectly by a skilled enough player. I was able to clear a lot of the patterns I made either perfectly or close to perfectly. I also by some miracle have a friend who somehow managed to clear my game in only 1 death apparently, so its at least not impossible to dodge the patterns I implemented. However some of the patterns are slightly more rng dependent than others, which does tie into the chaos theming, but also makes the patterns somewhat unfair at points.

Thanks for the feedback! When I went about designing the movement,  I decided to leave in the super-fast movement because I felt it made the movement more chaotic and made sense for Lydia being a hummingbird. But I agree, if I were to update this game again later, I probably should tone it down speed at least a little bit so that players can have an easier time getting used to it.

Thanks for the critique! I did want to try a system like multiple health bars and even some pre-fight enemies before the fight, but because I undertook the task of creating pretty much all of the art and sound myself, I didn't get the time to add those features in. I may go back to this game sometime to add in some stuff like that tho lol this was fun to make.

Thank you! I put a lot of time into doing the art this jam :)
