Great game! Simple, but very fun. I really like the text that keeps moving around with a shader, pretty cool. I just think that the step that the movement takes is too high, and its really difficult for some parts of the game. Also, I didn't quite understand the absorb bullets part, even though I held fire, the bullets were passing through normally. Other than that, great job!

You capture bullets by holding then releasing the fire button at the right moment, any bullets touching the circle get captured.

Great game! the speed might be a little too fast to clear some pixel-perfect levels (like the don't shoot only dodge exam) but otherwise really good, and very creative. I would just suggest making the shift button slow you down, I wouldn't add anything else to it. Really fun and addictive overall!

Pretty unique set of randomized challenges (especially got thrown off by the “end the challenge immediately” one). I do wish the player’s idle animation was a lot less animated though, because its center is hard to track when it’s moving all over the place.
