That's a pretty neat concept; it fits the theme quite well, by the way. I found, however, that you can avoid enemies altogether without any consequence. Because they overlap each other, their projectiles do not distribute properly. Hence, you somehow have to punish the player for avoiding them.

The game could definitely do with some animations for the player and enemies. Cool concept for the game. Good job.
I like the Idea! The art is very cool! The shooting itself was very good! But the game lacks some polish! I don't felt like my shurikens made any damage to the enemy, they are very bullets sponges. The movement could be a little bit slower. But other than that, it is a Great job! Solid entry! Congratulations!
I do like the core idea of the game, I guess it could work very well with a more advanced level design! The sprites you made for the game are nice too, I would have like some music added to it too.
I Will point out some stuff that i found in the game :
1- why didn’t you tell us we need to keep the slider in the middle, cause i thought that the slider goes down when i got killed, not when i am in a specific side.
2- The Game is fun …. But too OP, the enemies in a short amount of time will become too much, also, isn’t there a “Hold Shooting” button ?, that would help.
3- the game is …. Just not exactly related to the theme, yeah there are 2 sides & you need to keep moving between them, but that’s just it, i would have liked something like : You Have to sides, you can only switch to one side at a time, & you need to try killing as much enemies in both sides as possible, or you will die.
Overall, not a bad game, just would have liked more, but it is understandable, Bye :D
Stuck on loading, but I wanted to rate you anyways- can't let all that hard work go to waste! Would love to play when things get figured out!
EDIT: Played it! It was an interesting idea! I liked the concept and I like your take on two sides! some hopefully helpful feedback:
Feedback:
-Score UI covers the left bar at scores > 2000 (Yeah I got 2500 B) )
-SFX? (Maybe my audio was acting up)
-a health system in addition to watching temperature
-more moves?
-hold down to shoot?
Overall, cool game! Thank you for making this! Glad its working!
The loading got stuck, my guess it could be because the compression format is Brotli instead of Gzip in the project settings -> player
