I agree the game has potential, and it feels really good. I love the particles for the bullet shells and when the enemies get hit. The sound is crunchy and crispy too, keep building onto what you have here!

The art style works great. With a bit more content or development time, this could turn into something excellent!
While being a pretty simple top-down shooter game, it still is very good for what it does. The game feel and polish is amazing, the map is pretty detailed, and the art is nice, you should definitely work on this one more- It could be something great!
The game has a solid foundation for a top-down shooter. I loved the art style, and while the effects were minimal, they looked great. I wish more time had been spent refining it, as I can see incredible potential here!
