Cool little game. The quality of the presentation overall is off the charts. While I have some issues, it can't be said enough how much detail has actually been packed into this game.
First of all as I said before, the detail in the art is great. It's really impressive how many individual moving parts you managed to get on the ship in the first phase. That said, I also think it was almost too much detail at times, mostly because it hampered readability quite a lot. Since everything about the ship was that detailed, not much of it stood out enough at times, so I wasn't sure at first what was actually damageable and what wasn't.
Add the abundance of effects as well, and the enemy bullets which didn't really stand out enough from the background ( imo ) and it almost felt a little too chaotic at times. The red AOE attacks were definitely very noticeable though. I could hardly see the guy who'd spawn at the center of the ship and shoot rockets at me sometimes ( Probably just a skill issue though ). The second phase didn't really suffer from these problems though.
I think the boss's rockets could've been a little slower though, just to be slightly more forgiving.
All that said, I still think the fights are pretty solid. I think the main spin mechanic is also pretty cool, albeit somewhat loose with how it utilises the theme.
For something this short, it has a TON of quality packed into it which is both polished and fun. Great job on this
Thanks for the assessment. But the topic of spin didn't say it's core mechanics. :D I have spinning fans on the wings, fly out spinning saws on the second stage. The main character spins as barrel. Everyone understands the theme as they understand it. Best Regards for playing!!!
Absolutely wondering asthetic to the game, loved the top down arcade style of combat. wish I got to do more barrel rolls tho.
Loved the arcade fealing! Very nice entry.
I loved playing this game. It was really fun and the boss designs were great.
Nothing else I can say except for Perfect!
Please rate mine duck game. Hope you enjoy it.
The polish on this game is unbelievable. The way that parts of the boss gets damaged as you hit them is so nostalgic that I might have to find those old flash games I used to love as a kid and play them again. Would have loved to see more (but I can see why it's short - so much quality packed into every moment!)
The pixel art for the bosses is very good and cool. I'm not very good at using a keyboard play, so being able to use a gamepad was very helpful. Thank you!

Yes, artist PiiXL can play only on Gamepad ;D Welcome!
I really liked the two bosses, their movement set and especially the visuals are top notch. It was rather easy but very fun to play!
A Job very well done!
The art is very polished. I like the gameplay and design but for some reason my browser kept lagging when a lot of explosions happen on screen. I think the issue is on my end though. Great entry!
having a blast playing this. the art is awesomely good. had my jaw dropped when the boss actually have phase 2. extremely polished.
Very fun and super polished! Managing your barrel role downtime is super tight on some attack patterns which makes the game pretty difficult but other than that I had a very positive experience, good job!
This type of game isn't usually my thing, but I had a lot of fun here! The art is really superb and overall the game is very, very clean! Bravo !
Thank you - you game too very very !!
I love this! It's exactly my type of game!
Feels, looks and plays really polished, I have nothing to complain. Great job!
Firt of all the art its just insanely good, and the rest its also really good and well put together but Im an artist Im drawn to the art more than anything. Besides that It felt a bit short It would be nice to have at least one more boss, having this level of polishness it makes sense that only has 2 tho. Amazing job
DAMN, that was pure madness! I'm blown away by the visual style, the mechanics, and the genius transitions between the boss phases. The direction and presentation immerse you perfectly into the action. Incredible work—absolute insanity!! You’ve gained one more fan! Amazing job!
Thank you. Best regards
the exploding SFX of the engines jumpscared me a little. didn feel so good loud and sharp. the art is crazy good xDD you could put the roll on different buttons. i use the same fingers to move left and right and blockmyself from using the roll effectively. thanx fo sharing. really well polished!!
Good game! Loved the idea of breaking parts of the first boss and the transition between the bosses are smooth. Also adding a save between bosses was a good idea! As the others said, its a bit short but for a game made by one person its impressive, congrats!
Simply a great game for jam!
Good balance of difficulty, skill, special abilities, bosses are varied, art is amazing, sounds, music, everything is in its place. Intro is gorgeous. I am delighted. It's a pity that it is a bit short, I would play this for a long time.)
Your work deserves the greatest praise!
I love arcade games and this one its a perfect example of a well made one! Trully addicting and on point on difficulty, really nice, also I loved the sprites and animations, amazing. Congrats :D
Wow, the art is amazing and the controls are great, I wish I could fight more bosses!!
