Great concept! I love that rotating animation, very smooth. I think that hitting the enemies is a bit hard, you have to get it pretty much perfect. Other than that, really great game!

Agreed! I made most of this game in the last 24 hours which is when you should ideally be playtesting in any Game Jam. There are values to be tweaked to make the game more balanced.
Really, I ought to just make enemies take one hit to kill. However, I had the idea early on for enemies to GAIN health when getting hit with the wrong type of shot. This is implemented, but again is not obvious because there is no feedback to tell you they are actually getting more health.
Hey I've made some updates since the game jam, based on your feedback! If you want to, give the game a play again and let me know what you think! I plan on continuing to update this game at least until I get it to the original scope of the game idea (which was obviously too big for the game jam), so follow the page if you'd like to see and discuss how it develops.
