Overall very enjoyable, my only comment would be be having inverted controls (left to go right and vise versa).

Very cool graphic style, I really liked the fireball trail. It is a bit challenging for me at first because moving left while shooting means pressing the right key and viceversa.

Interesting idea. My only critique is that I am able to easily cheat the system by pushing the boulder against the far wall and pretty much never hitting anything ever without moving much

Thanks for playing, and for your feedback! We did also realize that that exploit existed, but didn't get around to addressing in time. We'll definitely keep that in mind if/when we come back to this project!
