I like the pixel art and the game is a good fit for the theme. It took me a while to figure out that enemies need two hits since there wasn't an indication when you hit them, it felt like my attacks weren't working. Once I figured that out it works well though; nice job!
Cool entry. I dont like much the long delay when you attack. It was a good decision to stop everything waiting for the attack, otherwise at that speed i would end up dieing all the time. I manage to finish it at the 5th try. Its a bit tricky to get the timing. I liked the last levels when you not only had to wait for the timing but also consider the other fireballs coming at you. The art of the character and enemies were cool. I wish it had music and sound!
Also, consider changing the attack button from space to j k or some button. If you want to play in browser and not at full screen, space bar will just scroll the page! But thats not something that affects the game honestly.
Nice game. Was there no sound or something wrong with me lol? Art was good and overall gameplay is good also. Could be added more enemies but still a pretty good entry.
I thought that the hitboxes were off also and was a little frustrated trying to hit the enemies. Then reading the comments I see that they take two hits, which would have helped to know 😄 Definitely some sort of hit notification would be very useful.
Also, the enemy's shots should probably disappear when you kill them. Between the persistent bullets and the slow attack speed it was very difficult to attack anything without taking a hit yourself.
Oh no ! A game were I need to be patient ! My nemesis XD
Nice and simple, really cool game. I enjoyed it quite a lot. I had trouble getting to the end.
If I had to point out some issues : 1) Maybe make it so the fire ball vanishes if the eyeball is killed It is upsetting when you kill and eyeball and still get hit afterwards Worse, is when you clear a level and still get hit 2) A roll or some way to avoid damage would have been fantastic.
Apart from that, I found the pixel art charming and the fireball sprites are great. The game really fits the theme too. Nice work !
Fireballs going through walls felt unfair (melee vs. ranged is already a bit unfair). Agree with the comments here on hit detection, feedback, less delay between input and attacks, etc.
With some tweaks and some music/audio it could be a lot more fun than it already is.

Very well done.

I agree with the comments left above as well about some of the tweaks that would add a lot, so I won't reiterate them. Great job overall!
- less delay/response for atack
- music and sound effects
- checkpoint
congrats for the game!
