:fireworks: The chaotic storm of attacks really makes this for me! The premise is great and the polish is crazy! The little rising beep as the timer goes down is appreciated, I almost never looked at the boss' health gauge.

REALLY love the formulae and other symbols so integrated into the game. Really flashy but also still easy to follow. Loved the controlled chaos feel

This is great! Love the signaling of the attack and the reaction of the mathboss when you shoot them. The controls feel very tight and responsive. It has some really nice juice to it. Great work!

At first I thought it had pretty basic graphics but in actually, it works well with the chaotic mood of the game. It was fun to play and the dynamic effects and movement made play feel really good. Well done!

An interesting concept! Nice variation of projectiles or maths equations being shot at me. The art works well together. Perhaps having the player shoot for the mouse button or space bar would work better as I found it tough to shoot while trying to dodge all the enemy projectile. Overall, a fun, challenging game : )

A lot of game juice! this was fantastic, the math attack look pretty neat and the game is quite hard to beat but at the same time very funny. Congrats

This is excellent, I legitimately had fun with this. Presentation is great (i.e. the "juiciness" of the animations work well and are nicely implemented). I wish to see more jam games that revolve around a single boss fight.

As a point of criticism, both the sound effects and the music is kind of loud and abrasive, it gets annoying after a while.

The concept is fairly simple and well executed. Not much to add onto that besides a bit variety maybe. Despite the rather basic visuals it feels very smooth and polished. If I had to criticise I would have only made some changes to the visuals with a "handdrawn/sketch" look. Other than that it is a well executed jam submission! Good work!

I love this a lot :D It's pretty challenging, but it seems like you can easily "hide" from the attacks by holding left or right to smoosh yourself into a wall

Loved it! And finally I finished a game lol! Usually I'm just terrible at playing anything, but this game really catched me and I must have defeated that evil math guy! Sweet idea, really!
