I really liked the 3d aspect of the game and the simple to understand controls. 1 look and I knew what to do. Wish enemies would maybe speed up as time goes maybe though?

Very cool idea and solid base that you could develop in many different directions (pun?) lol
Honestly great game, fun from the get-go!
I'm very curious as to how you coded the whole rotational movement with the bullet path warping there.
Would have LOVED to see a second type of enemy, maybe with a different flight pattern or fire rate. But great job!
Nice jam submission, I really like the artstyle!
A cool play on on-rails space shooters. I'd recommend tweaking the difficulty a bit since I managed to stay in one spot and it felt like both the obstacles and other ships were always somewhere else. The gameplay also gave me a bit of a headache unfortunately (I think due to mild motion sickness from moving around the column). I'd recommend trying out a vertical perspective instead, but I might be an edge case.
Thank you for playing and for the feedback!
I think I need to rework the enemy and obstacle spawning so it's more targeted towards the player instead of being random. I got a headache too from testing it and even lowered the bloom because it was a lot worse. Maybe a filter to darken the background while the player is moving would fix it.
Very fun and I really like the combination of 3d and 2d. Maybe some sort of cooldown on the weapon would be good (I held shoot and W and was practically invincible :P)
The game is fun, and I really like the art style and music! I also enjoy how the difficulty seems to ramp up the longer you play
