Lovely little platformer shooter, though the controls were quite a bit wonky for my taste.
Bu anyways a really solid entry, great game!

yep, wonky is what i was going for :)   its the exact same controls as Contra NES which was my fav arcade game.

it would be much easier to go with shot to mouse cursor trust me lol

Those sound effects are brutal, I love it. Nice smooth animations and visual aesthetics. The controls reminds me of Contra on famicom, and the visuals reminds of flash games- specifically the Fancy Pants. Good times.

I enjoyed this one! I did not get to the boss fight though! Toying with the jump+dash mechanic was tricky.
