Comments:
The music and art was great. The sfx, while present, had little to add to the experience of play. The visuals on the border of the screen seemed out of place. The spin mechanic felt practically useless I'm sorry to say. I liked the idea of charging it up, but I couldn't figure out what it was doing for me, so I ignored it entirely. Bosses were super cool! Solid work.
