The spidey-sense [!] mechanic to warn you of oncoming enemies was a very smart idea. The art and style is very Gainax-y, which I should have guessed from your "buster" title. There's actually a whole genre of like, PC-88 lesbian mecha games if anyone reading this wants to dive down a rabbit hole.
Dang, the visuals are so nice. The characters are superb. The game itself was pretty fun and the whole vibe reminds me of a game called Twinbee for some reason. Really, really well done. Great job.
Cool game lol. The visuals are off the charts oof. The gameplay loop is solid. The upgrades were cool additions as well
However, I'm not really a fan of how some of the enemy types were handled.
Apart from the enemies in the last wave who shoot at you, none of the enemy types really changed things up. As a result, the game ended up being kinda repetitive and mostly easy.
Though, If the other enemy types did act differently, then I guess I killed them too quickly lol.
The boss ( I'm assuming it was a boss anyway ) was also kinda disappointing since it went down in like a second or so ( The enemy that shoots in 4 directions ).
Still, this is a very well made and very polished game. Very well done on this one
Visuals look great and the music fits very well. Game feels like a classic.
I like the fact that you explode when you die.
cool mechanics and awesome art style, the small large sprites and small play area sometimes make it hard to avoid damage

Very nicely polished game!
The art is obviously top notch, and there is a nice variety of playstyles possible thanks to the different playable pilots :)
