Great game. The mechanic feel fine tuned and the design is very clean. I think the main thing the game needs is just more glamour. I want to really feel like I'm bullet hell. So more pumped music, cooler visuals, and snappier sound effects could really pump it up a notch. One small thing that could also help is replacing the cursor. The generic mouse cursor covers things up, it's pretty easy to just replace it with some crosshairs.
Hey! Thanks for the feedback! The cursor should be a crosshair, I think it's just buggy in WebGl.
This game was really fun ! I love the visuals and the gameplay was fun! I think the square has too much health in the early levels. It’s not as fun to spend 15 seconds just shooting at a square that does nothing or shoots once every 3 seconds. Then, as you ramp up the difficulty, you can also increase the health. Great job !
Please check out my game ! :D Escape Path Beta
Wow! This game is really funny and challenging. Good Work!
Really great game! Got to level 24 so far. I have to say that I was amazed how each level is unique and difficult in its own way. So many different attacks and strategies, each level feels like fighting a boss.
Great job! Now I'm off to try level 24 again...
Cool! Thanks for playing!
Really good game! Thank you for creating it and I enjoyed playing! Find y review below:

thanks for playing it! Really enjoyed watching it! Also you can not buy chasing bullets since you already got the 3 bullets.
Simple but fun game. I really love the upgrade system great job!
For me personally, I would prefer to have a design similar to the health bar. I want to know the current state of the monster, but the way you develop it is very interesting and well done!
I love the concept of this game! I was stuck on Level 9 for so long! I just couldn't figure out the strategy. Nonetheless, I thought it was extremely creative and fun. The powerups were a nice touch. Each addition to the square's difficulty was very fair and a nice transition from the previous. Cheers!
I really liked this game! Building on a single enemy in a single level over and over again is a really cool idea, and I think the ways you expanded on it were super creative and fun. The upgrade system also adds a nice amount of variety. Nice work!
Thanks for the nice words! Really appreciate it! Will check out your entry later! :)
