I can't say I was really good at this game, but I still had fun trying it. The graphics is good, and the music is okay. Overall a fun little jam game. Well done.

Nice idea, executed well. Needs some more content (enemies etc) to make it a fuller game.

good premise, would be cool to see different enemy types and movesets. art could use some more consistency overall and the audio could use some more PUNCH yknow? more juice. the music sounds like how it feels to order a McChicken at the drive thru

nice work! would've liked to see more enemies or a steeper difficulty curve, but the powerups were cool and the art was nice!

Upgrades are not something you often see in a jam game and they're nice to see here. It felt a bit like a roguelike which was pretty cool, and it was pretty fun to play too. I am so used to pressing Space for jumping though so I hit a ton of enemies because I would instinctively press Space and not J. In game tutorial was helpful, great touch IMO. For the art, a lot of it looked good but a lot of the sprites were at different pixel sizes which made it look a little off. Good work overall!
