Sorry, I didn't truly enjoyed your game... :/
I just feel like this is a regular Shmup. Basically, the only "RPG" element is leveling up, but that's very similar to what Shoot'em ups have done for a long time as leveling up only heals you and makes you fire faster (basically, it's like picking up an upgrade in a regular shmup)

Too bad there's no music as well. Overall, your game isn't bad, but I just think it doesn't fit the theme. Congrats on making the deadline anyway and keep on making games! :)

I think that's a fair complaint. I wanted to add more but just didn't have enough time to make that deadline. I wanted to try and go with a much more simple approach for this game but I think I went "too" simple this time.
