Very crisp execution of the idea. Great pixel art, great SFX, great music, and great gameplay. Adds a lot of -player imposed challenge to get a high score. Found it very difficult at times but also maybe I did that to myself? Idk. Awesome entry!
It was really a surprise for me how difficult people found it, but you're absolutely right that a lot of the difficulty is within the hands of the player. Do you risk making it harder for a higher score etc. Glad to hear you liked it, thank you for playing!
