The music in this game is so charming! ithiro is right though, you move too fast to properly navigate the projectiles on screen. I kind of disagree that the art style needs changing, it fits with the music really well and gives the feeling of a very laid back and nonchalant game feel
Graphics either need to be worse, or better, they're kinda lost rn.
You also really need a way for players to be able to make small, precise movements. This is a bullet hell, so you need some sort of slowdown key, or at least do so when the player is shooting.
You either need more extravagant, exaggerated and extreme art to sell the so bad it's good aesthetic games like Cruelty Squad are going for, or polish, tone down and organize them better to have a more contained, odd-looking and creepier style.

Thanks! I'll have fixed the movement speeds by next demo day.
Good song.

Thanks. I'll add a modifier button that slows down the player. Could you elaborate on what you mean on graphics being worse or better?

I'm not going for either of those styles specifically, but you're right that I need to decide on a style for sure. Thanks for the critique man.
