  • I liked the aesthetic for this bullet-hell game, giving it a cohesive theme. The varied powerups were nice, though they ended up being very situational because of the 5 second timer; I sometimes got a bullet-based powerup but no enemies spawned for another 3 seconds, making it less effective. Perhaps longer but less frequent powerups could give more value to them. I'm not sure if there's something beyond the Hackerman enemy (that's where I died), but it could also be good to vary up the backgrounds to give a sense of progression, such as switching the tabs at the top and use them as progress through the levels or zones; beat the last tab and you beat the game. Just some suggestions, but overall good job on this arcade game!
