I quite like the art and sound, but the gameplay felt pretty sluggish and I would lose hp even when I was inside the bunker. The character feels too slow and resources are too few to upgrade enough to get further than one screen away

Like your art and what you made of the theme.

Look into game feel:)

Looks and sounds lovely. The entrance to the shelter is hard to see. It took me trying about 5 times before I thought to try it.

Solid entry! I actually like how you had to learn the cycle from the music, no indicator bar. Platforming I found very difficult and frustrating to die b/c I missed a jump. Nice progression though!
