The premise was funny, yet sometimes I struggled to proper aim/shoot
The idea is clever, polish is ok for a compo entry.
improve your product in a post-jam version, you'll become better!
Thanks for your work
Amazing amount done in 48hrs!
A level reset would be nice as well, as I kinda screwed myself with the little shooting hole. I placed a gold block inside that hole.
Had fun!
Liked the graphics and the music :)
I loved that you managed to work a boss battle in at the end. I spent a good amount of time on the left side of the room shooting it before I realized I could walk through him. It went a long way to making this feel like a complete experience. It's nice when LD games manage to work in a beginning, middle and end to their games.
Good stuff! Good job!
Fun twist on the theme tho
