Never bring bullets to a sword fight! 

I want to put danmakus in the phrase above  instead of bullets, but I don't think everyone would understand that term.  Anyway,  this game successfully deliver a good setting for a much larger game. I interested in the story of why the protagonist genociding the fairies and why killing fairies ties to finding the sister. I also love that you can disregard the gun and choose to  become a sword fighter and melee your way through all your enemies. This game also has wall jump! I like it.

Good job! 

Using the sword to parry and return the bullets is a very good mechanic to add, it helps to hit back since jumping and shooting can be a bit difficult due to the lack of aiming. Overall I had fun, pretty unique to add some platformer elements to the bullet hell genre.

Neat game that dives with the platforming and weapons. On top of all the we get to repent for sins of murder

Oh the HORROR of killing fairies! Hahah, the fairies with the guns caught me sooooo off guard!! I don't know if you can kill the fairies but I just bolted through them woods! Great game!

Great that you updated the thumbnail! I also don't think the screenshot do it justice, it's too dark. Maybe upload a gif as well?

Beautiful environment, and theme. I did like the level design. I sort of did a pacifist run and still got yelled at for killing fairies. Couple of criticisms though. Without the ability to aim up, platforming ads an unfair element to the game as it makes it unavoidable getting hit while jumping up to the next level as you have to get there before you can shoot the fairy. Not that it mattered in my pacifist run. But despite getting hit by basically everything I was never at any risk of dying. There really wasn't any difficulty. Most of the bosses attacks were similarly unavoidable. Stage 2 was awesome though. The large projectiles could bi dodged by wall jumping which felt clean. Also the collisions felt fair and forgiving. I think a bit more difficulty, and the ability to aim the gun via the mouse would be huge improvements. Also Z to shoot is a bit cumbersome when using WSAD, I'm not sure if I missed another control, but by the time I was in game I just sort of dealt with it.

"To be continued"

Best part of the game is constantly shooting while you're running forward so you're preceded by a barrage of bullets. At the beginning I walked back and shot more than I like, that's part of a me problem rather than really a game problem though as when I started to try not to kill too many faeries and in the same time realised I could just use a combination of bruteforcing my way ahead ignoring some enemies while facing the other ones straight specially with the sword it got much more fun. I totally bruteforced through the boss with the sword, never tried to dodge anything she was throwing at me, nice bullet patterns anyway.

The game is fun. I really like some of the art, the walking animation of the character is excellent. The gun shot feels super good with the kickback, and so does the sword slash. Also fearies with guns is cool.

I guess you did not take any risk with the difficulty in this one, it could probably be at least a tiny bit harder.

That's a cool entry, thanks for sharing.

I really like the mechanic of returning bullets to sender with a sword slash. It's a great way to utilize the theme, while also making the game a lot more fun. Other things that I liked are the creative health bars, interesting enemy designs, and just the fact that fairies are packing heat. As for critiques, I agree with a few things already said by singleshotgamer and CGpepper and I'm sure you're already aware of the bugs. I think bullet-hell and platforming can mix but the gameplay is a little slow for my taste. The jump is very floaty and the fairies too move very slowly through the air, taking it a while to maneuver both them and myself into the position I want for attacks. That is subjective though. You may, for example, prefer the slower and more methodical gameplay. I also think the audio mixing could be tweaked. The sound effects of the gun fire are really loud compared to all the other audio so it's jarring.

I found the game very interesting and really liked the atmosphere. It took me a while to understand the controls, but I went back to the page and read the description. I think the jump could be mapped to the up arrow; I found the keys you used a bit complicated, but you get used to them after a while. Sometimes I just ran ahead and left the fairies behind. Would it be worth closing certain areas of the map until the player destroys the fairies to proceed? Overall, I enjoyed the game a lot. Congratulations!

Every bullet hell needs a sweet freaking sword! SHHHWING
