i really like the tittle screen art cool style there the game play art is cool too just not as cool imo. the shoot mechanic was very rigid i imagine that was to make it more difficult to shoot things. and if you shot something there was a chance for the projectile to come back and kill you idk if that was intentional but it would either come back right at me or above where i would jump to avoid getting hit by the return shot but when i did dodge it that was cool. ima be honest i didnt read the words there were a lot and they were too fast. on the level where you go down the mountain it was tough to see where it was going that might have been intentional to make it more challengeing but not seeing an enemy then getting hit by them with now way to shoot it first doesn't feel great unless you were going for a more challenging dealio there in which case good job. also the last level where you would jump over the orange guys then land on another slime that hurt until i figured out you could get down to the ground sooner and you could even see the top of the people on the bottom of the screen i feel like that was a nice subtle hint. the background effect with the sky was a pretty jittery for me. Overall had fun nice sound effects and fun music

I don't let to control the shoot cause it will make the game too easy. For every 10 humans, you get a shoot (max 5) and I think it as a helper in a few situations to avoid the enemies that I positioned in problematic places. The fact it can bounce back is for some reason, to avoid shooting them from too near.
Some levels as you said had more than one path, some harder, some easier. The idea is to see "oh if I do this it will be easier". Or you can find a solution better than me.
The mountain level is tricky cause it is thought to force you to go fast. There are two points where the snow will fall over you and to avoid them is hard. But at the same time, I will give you some bad surprises to make you hate me as enemies. The good thing is that if you jump them, they will help you stop the snow.
As a side note, if you check in with directions the humans run, you will know where are some jellies. They run from the nearest jelly in the horizontal plane.
