for the bullets i agree and if i could go back id try and make the team bullets either visually smaller or a color that contrasts less like green or blue, i thought the red outline helped enough but after more feedback i realize it didnt
also for progression i have ideas to fix that sometime after the jam but with jam limitations its pretty hard to balance it between progressing fast enough and lasting long enough, especially without just adding more features that exponentially make it take longer to fill in the progression better if that makes sense :]
