The game feels great to play, but there is a bug when I shoot. If I lift my finger off the mouse to stop shooting, sometimes the gun keeps shooting. Great entry into the jam!

Great art style and good amount of polish. Would have loved some more feedback on hitting the squiggle (screen shake etc.) and would have liked some powerups or modifiers to keep the gameplay varied and fun as it does tend to get a bit repetitive after a while.

Great job overall.

I enjoyed shooting the squiggle.

Cool artstyle, and I liked the enemy had different phases. Some powerups or different weapons wouldn't go amiss, but I enjoyed it.

nice and simple game, maybe 2k shots is a liiiiittle too long and repetitive but it was fun regardless, i like the different attacks thrown out

Such a polished little title! the gameplay is a bit hard ngl, but I really loved the artwork. its just simple and amazing.

Very cute looking game! Lacking a bit of response on hitting the squigly, but fun regardless.

Very precise and cute! I felt it didn't matter much if I actually hit the squigly or just spend bullets to get through the phases. All behaviors felt super unique and varied, excellent job there.

Fun game. Controls good. Shooting is satisfying. Art style is simple and cute. At my first attempt, I died when the squiggle had 3 hit points left ha ha.

Short yet so fun. The different phases are the highlights. I did find it a bit hard, but that's probably by design.

A solid game for a short jam. Nice job!

A simple and short boss battle, it would be great if it could shoot automatically

Love the art, love the music, the phases were fun

Simple idea but fairly well executed. The visuals are polished and the controls are nice and responsive.

Would have been nice to see the theme incorporated a bit more strongly

Cool game, would love to see it expanded upon!

ive been really impressed with this game. Ithought it would be simpler but its very  satisfyin and has a nice progression!

Submitted(+1)

As a proof of concept submission, I thought this was really well-polished and enjoyable! The only issues I have are that the boss is very long and that, other than the health, it doesn't really suit the theme, but otherwise a really cool game!

Submitted(+1)

got to 1k and had a blast! really cool the idea to incorporate the enemy mechanics into the life/timer, I wonder if later on it does something similar for your abilities? would have been cool!

Had a lot of fun playing and the enemy caught me completely off guard hahaha
Wasn't able to beat it though but still enjoyed it very much :)
