Other problems: Red enemies didn't always spawn - seems like a glitch. Also, my game would sometimes randomly lag, and I'm not quite sure why.
I couldn't really get a feel of when I was successfully using the bullet reflect ability unless I was closely watching for bullets changing direction. I think some kind of feedback when using this ability would be cool! Like maybe a brief white flash on affected bullets, an accompanying sound effect upon successful reflection, etc. Maybe some kind of hint of the size of the "reflection area," so I could take more care to time my clicks for when bullets are in range, rather than click-spamming and hoping for the best!
This could be a really chaotic and fun game, just gotta add that juice! Having limited time to work on it sucks... but I think you did a good job for a day's work! :)
+ Sound effects make for responsive feedback.
+ Graphics are kept simple and intuitive.
+ Good difficulty level.
- The reflecting feature could be better implemented, as others have suggested.
