Great concept and fun to play, just maybe reduce the health a bit, as you can kill them before they kill you if you stand underneath and spam. Overall amazing work!
It's an ok game. The graphics are really not that good but they serve its purpose, nothing was hard to identify. Also I was hoping there would be an ending, but instead when you beat the final boss you just get reset. I get that's the point, but it's kind of disappointing. The mechanics are cool but very unbalanced, for all bosses you can just hold C and mash X while shooting up and not moving, and you'll win. I think enemies could do some different things to the player instead of just subtracting from HP, for example knocking you back, or making you slower. That would make it harder to cheese the boss by standing still.
I found the game pretty fun for some strange reasons, I like the way you implemented the theme but as others have mentioned, it's pretty easy to cheese the boss, I didn't even know there was a dash feature since I just stood underneath the eye and spammed my shoot button. But congratulations on finishing non the less :D!
Your game was alright. I really liked all the music, I actually stopped to listen to it all after playing. This game has potential, too. It could use some balancing, as others have said, but I think, with some effort after the jam, this could be a fun boss rush game.
Neat little game, congrats on finishing it! Is there a way to beat the game or get out of the loop? I gave up after the 500 HP boss, where no more new battle elements seemed to have been introduced.
The idea is simple and the game is pretty fun to play. The gameplay could have worked better, but it's not to difficult to find a way to defeat the monster. Overall a fine little jam game.
Fun game! I beat every level monster and probably set a speed record. The trick: stand under an eye, hold Up Arrow, and GO CRAZY WITH THE X BUTTON!!!!!! You'll kill the boss before it kills you.

The game itself was not really fun. Went to 5 or 6 cycles but it just ends up spamming x and up as fast as you can xD
Overal a good job! Thank you for the game
