How does your game fit the Magical Girl genre?
Lily is our Magical Girl. Her magic comes from her first familiar (her unicorn bunny), and it takes form in her outfit, wings and the weapon she is able to conjure. Her weapon is able to shoot different attacks, all formed from magic. During the gameplay each familiar she has gives her a different weapon.

Which theme(s) do you pick?
Under Pressure

How does your game fit those theme(s)?
Our game is a bullet hell, which we were inpsired to make from the theme "Under Pressure". In the game's story Lily has to face off a CEO. She is under pressure to save the familiars from the evil CEO, as he just wants to extort them for their magical powers.

If you follow any of the optional challenges, elaborate as you like.
We attempted to use quotes from Senator Armstrong! See "Don't F with the Senator." Turned into "Don't F With the CEO."

Were the assets for your game made during the jam? Elaborate as you see fit.
The music is purchased from https://brooklyn-game-audio-team.itch.io/2000. The sound effects are from the KennyNL and Sonniss gdc bundle. Everything else was created during the jam.

A challenging (for a bullet hell novice like myself) and fun game! The artwork was cute and worked well. It took me a bit to realize I needed to hold down the shoot button. I was having a really hard time until I figured that out, but that's a me problem!

Overall great work!

"Difficult game journalist" I think this ideal should be more widespread. Good art with its cute characters and backgrounds. I died on the second form, but I tried again and it worked.Skill problem. Fun game!
Probably my highest rating on this MGG so far.

Quite enjoyable! 

As a Touhou player, I don't find this too difficult to beat; however, the homing missiles (from the secret boss) and the oscillating balls are interesting attack patterns to learn.

Best of luck!
