Great work submitting a completed project!
Excellent menu system. I loved the idea of killer red bars attacking my big white bar that i need to protect with my paint roller! Funny concept. I think it ties to the theme loosely, so I would have preferred more in the way to communicate the idea of renewal.
Gameplay is solid. Definitely appreciate the difficulty curve increasing. Particle and sound effects are excellent. Perhaps a simple "hit the bar" animation for the white bar when you miss may be a good way to indicate a fail.
Nicely done!
