This was fun right away. Took me a minute to understand I had different weapons I could select (mouse wheel would have made this better maybe) 

Everything worked! ran really well in the browser. Great Work.

I am a sucker for bullethell games! Neat stuff

I wish the upgrade types were clearer so I can avoid the ones that I did not like

Developer(+1)

it’s worth picking up the ones you don’t like as well since they upgrade the stats of all weapons (10%), but switches you to a specific one and upgrades that one more (20%). I initially planned to have it be the player’s choice to pickup an upgrade but cut that idea as time came to a close.

ah. makes sense then. still fun :)

Very simple design and simple visuals, but it just works so well.

I would like to see some tighter controls and somehow making sure that enemies are not spawning too close to you or warn you about spawning enemies in some way.

Developer

Yea, the spawners don’t do any checks before spawning, but they are limited to spawn in 3 specific zones on the screen.

I liked it, the audio could use some softening, especially when it builds.

Damn! This was good. A very niche way of game mechanics.

I stopped at around 800 kills. There is some lag when too many bullets are flying. It's on theme. I like the game is somewhat forgiving. I'd like to see more bonus types.

unfortunately the web version can’t handle as many projectiles as desktop versions.

Wish the controls were a little more responsive, enjoyed the utter chaos thought!

Fun idea. I like how enemy chain explosions play out. I think the controls should be more responsive for a bullet hell.

Developer

The controls are something I wanted to tweak more, but ultimately i decided it was good enough and focused on getting other features in.
