With all this bullet hell mess I'm playing today, with huge EDM synth, heavy guitar riffs, hundreds of deadly bullets and sweaty hands, this one is a breath of fresh air. It's so... calming! The atmosphere is so unique I love it. It's not that difficult but it's challenging enough that it remains fun. I love the artstyle, the ship design is so cool and whatever the enemies are they blend super well with this universe. The sound is what hooked me, the music is really good, I'll have to check the musician's bandcamp :) It is appeasing but also makes me want to kill some geometric abominations x) The Sound Design is simple, but perfect. You did several variations of sounds like enemies blowing up, making them not annoying. The overall atmosphere is perfect, this game is simple, but great, you have my heart <3

Thank you for your kind words. 😊 I had worried that I missed the point of 'bullet hell', where this game starts with a dreamy aesthetic and slowly ramps up the challenge, so I am happy that it resonated with you. The composer, Moult, also made their own rhythm matching game that you can find here: https://moult.itch.io/caterwaul
