The pixel art is fabulous, and I love the variety of bullet patterns, avoiding them is really fun. The movement is crisp which is really needed for bullet hell games. There is a strong resemblance to space invaders, which I love. I would make the green for the hitbox a bit more notable and maybe change the music for something more intense, other than that great game!

Thanks for playing and your feedback !
i overscoped so i stretched myseflf thin on time cause i tried a bunch of new stuff to make the enemy ai and the bullet patterns so the gameplay stuff is quite basic and a lot of things didn’t turn out as well as i hoped, thus the bit of a Space Invaders vibe.
So i’m glad that you’ve enjoyed it despite all the shortcomings:D
The alien ships were a lot of fun to design, if i get some time post jam i’ll try to implement the rest cause on jam time there are a few that i didn’t have time to implement fully functionnal, but their sprites are in there just unseen for now XD
Music wise i’ll agree these tracks aren’t my best, i wanted to have a sort of arcade game vibe but yeah they are what they are, but i get what you say and funnily enough i have done more intense tracks on past games :p
Noted for the hitbox, i’ll try to highlight it a bit more :)
