Hello! Congrats on the game :D
A bit late with the feedback, but hope this helps:
- The parallax is well done! - one thing I would add is to blur it a bit so it reads as background, makes it less distracting
- Hitting enemies locks the player in place and the combat feels quite choppy... enemies become very hard to hit and the bullets that follow you feel unfair
- The UI elements are spread out and kind of blend in with the scene - especially the life bar. Maybe make them stand out with a white outline and gather them up top?
- The sound effects are really nice and the art has a charm to it, well done!
As with all game jams, there's limited time and not all makes it in the final cut. So big props for being able to finish the game!
