Thanks for all the comments, ill probably update the game one more time with feedback in mind once voting ends.

Amazing game! Like most people here in the comments, I also would have liked it if the character aimed at the mouse, tho.

Nice pixel art! I loved how you left space to maneuver outside of the platform. I would have liked to be able to aim my shots though, instead of them going on the horizontal axis only.

Really good game! very fun to play and the art was very good as well!

quite an interesting game!

Despite the simple concept, it's really fun to play! good ability of enemies which gradually increases. Potions that dilute the game are also very useful!

Really cool, good gameplay and graphics with a nice interpretation of the limitation! I would maybe forego the machinery on the platform though as it is sometimes hard to see enemies

I really liked the game. Fun, good graphics and a good interpretation of the limitation.
One little suggestion by my personal opinion: I would have preferred the character to look at the mouse. It feels a bit clunky having to move in one direction just to flip the character and be able to shoot to enemies.

This game is well-made in every aspect, with a rich variety of enemies, innovative level design, and multi-track music. The only drawback is that the difficulty is a bit high, making it hard for me to see the later content. Lowering the game difficulty would be better.
