Got to 195! I didn't know there was a shop before a few tries, maybe the first shop could show up a bit sooner?

Also, unfortunately I left the shop too quickly before realizing I was there.

I found this game very addicting. It's chill because of the music and the slowly moving background, but at the same time you're always on edge. After having 150+ points I stopped going after the slowest enemies, and just kept myself aware to evade the faster ones. It's very, very satisfying to play, and I agree that sound effects when you hit enemies would be an incredible addition.

The color scheme is charming, the game is very polished, and that logo is cute as hell. Great job!

Nice arcade game. I feel like some sounds would make hitting enemies even more satisfying, though the music sets a nice tone. Pretty fun overall :)

Very satisfying gameplay, though the colors are a bit dark at times. The game is challenging and the limitations of the jam are incorporated well. A nice arcade game!

Simple but super fun, very satisfactory when you play. Maybe with a few sounds it would be more addictive?
