Glad to see you participate again this year! This was hard! I never made it past the third area, but I'll definitely be back to Chase that High Score. The choice of sounds and music fits the game well, and the art is lovely. The charged bullet might be a little bit overpowered, but considering you can't shoot your regular ones while charging I think it's fine. I think I would have liked to see a grazing mechanic to pump those numbers up even more!
