An interesting game.  Fits the theme.  Crunchy sound effects.  Artwork is good, but It entices you into waiting to attack after you've lined up a lot of enemies, but then you risk being overwhelmed.

I think the number of enemies goes up way too fast.  You've got a small playing area and it's trickier to shoot than in regular bullet hells.  On top of that, you easily run out of ammo and have to collect more.

That was pretty fun and creative - the idea of controls being affected by ammo is pretty cool too :)

Nice! It's a good little experience and plays well with the theme. I only wish there was a little more "oomph" to the combat, like particles when enemies are killed or something so its more satisfying.

I enjoyed it! I liked that it makes you count down in order to start, really clever tutorial.

A really creative idea!
Need a bit of balancing, but a really good job!

Really cool idea! Something as simple as shooting can become a challenge with such a twist. The gameplay is fun and polished. Congrats!

Fun idea, especially for someone who never pays attention to how much ammo they have left :D I think it would be nice to have different control options to keep it a bit more ergonomic (like q, w, e, a, s d). Would love to see where you can take this project with some new mechanics around extra ammo! Nice submission :)

It took me a while to understand how to start the game haha, I thought I should use the arrows and not literally 1,2,3,4,5,6.
The gameplay was unique, I thought the hitbox was 1 square when you don't have the hat on and thought I was safe being next to the NPCs, well I wasn't :D
Pixel art is amazing I love that arcade style and retro vibes. A solid game I liked it!

That's an interesting interpretation of the theme. And fun!

But I would like bullets to spawn more often
