ty! yea it was definitely a mistake to not work on an easier mode a bit earlier. had all the systems in place to cook it in like basically a day but worked on just fixing stuff and making like a boss system + the theme at the last 2 days sadly.
mostly made the game for just finally actually completing something so i will be working on it as a standard shmup game after the jam. prooobably gonna get some new lore for it though.
