Hey another solo dev! (there are dozens of us! Dozens!)
Amazing songs! (they remind me of megaman 8) I really liked the level design, and the dynamics of shooting vs dashing depending on the enemies and their positions.
The stage becoming night was a very nice addition, this game has lots of personality/atmosphere. Also, the length of the level reminded me of sonic. I was so rooting for there to be another level, not because I found it short, but because I wanted to play more. Such vibes. Really nice entry, great job!
