This game is challenging and offers some great replay value with the powerups in the shop. I struggled at first when I was using a keyboard and then I realised it controls comfortably with controller. Even after switching to a controller I had difficulty with the bosses and I may need a few more tries before I beat the game. Great entry, I’m thinking a pixel art platformer might be my next game jam entry and this one is a good inspiration! I noticed there was some hit-detection glitches when you’re standing right next to a block and shooting at it. I got myself into a few death-by-box-reappearance mishaps due to that quirk but aside from that the implementation feels well done. Congrats.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! I'm still working on the game a bit for a post-jam version, and I changed it so instead of getting stuck in the blocks and dying, they just instantly smash again when you're caught inside, and only damage you once. I also fixed a game-breaking bug, where when you get stuck, you can spam jump to move yourself up through walls. I'll try to fix it so you can stand right next to the block and shoot, it is kind of annoying that you have to move back a bit.
