This was a really fun and intense arcade game. Simple to learn and get used to, challenging to go far. The sound effects and visuals are also nice and simple, everything is clearly distinguishable. Great stuff!
I can't recall my max combo, so unfortunately I can't brag about it here :/

I love the game, because it's simple but it makes fun. But still, there are things, that I want to tell:
Theme Relevance:
Maybe I didn't understand, but the game has nothing about the theme rebirth, so I can't say anything until I get an explanation.
Gameplay:
The gameplay is very smooth and I love the game very much with the dash idea! But:
In full screen, the game isn't full screen, that had the reason, that you made the full screen function only by itch and not by unity, so unity don't fill the screen.
Also, I don't understand, how to defeat the ghost, because it isn't explained, so I wished more explanation and maybe an mini-tutorial, what would have images in-game.
There is a bug, where the (pink) enemies are not kill you, although you touch them without a dash. Only moving after the touch, the game works fine again.
Anyway, the gameplay is nice!
Artwork:
The artwork is simple and great, so I didn't see anything bad. Maybe particle effects or a screen shake by killing an enemy would be great, so you have more dash-feedback!
But, nice job!
Audio:
The dash, kill and lose sound is nice, but it would be great, if there are more sound, for example the enemy spawns or shoots, but this would be overload. An another idea would be different kill sounds depends, which enemy you killed. A simple, looping background music would be also great!
Anyway, the audio is nice, but it could be more.
In summary, the game is nice and simple, but it has more potential, if the game will be updated. So I wish you good success with your entry!
Best regards

thanks for taking your time writing the comment
also wanted to mention some of the points you made
the PINK ENEMY not killing you is not a bug while play testing i found out sometimes wile dashing
towards an enemy before you reach the enemy the dash would end like 1 frame before colliding with enemy and die.
could've done a better solution but my coding skills are bad.
there is no way of killing the ghost enemy you just have to avoid it my bad i didn't put a tutorial on the game
gonna write some basic tutorial
and my idea for the theme was that it you get a hit and you have a 15 kill combo you get and extra life and rebirth
i didnt implement the proper visuals so people would actually notice it
ik its a bad idea and the game doesnt really have to do with the theme rebirth so i cant defend that lol
again thanks for the feedback have a nice day
Hi dice68, you're welcome.
Please don't take the game as an attack on your skills!
Your game is great, I only diudn't understand little thing, that is all!
Anyone starts and don't write the best code, so don't be sad!
I hope, you will improve your game and I'm excited on this update :)
But please make the update after the voting period, so it's for all fair.
Anyway, thank you for your answer and your sight of your game! :)
Have also a nice day!
That dash had pretty good feedback. I can see this game being really good on mobile too. Hopefully you can continue it!
Would love to see a more polished version, this was very fun!
