I really wasn't expecting to enjoy this, but I really did! I thought the controls were really sloppy and slow, which they are, but they make the game play at a very different pace than other shmups, which was nice! Pretty acceptable amount of polish considering the scope of the game. Some things I though were messing though were something to tell you that you had paused the game (I got very confused and thought I had crashed the game), and making the shots feel a bit heavier. Otherwise this is really good!

Glad you enjoyed it!
Somehow I liked the floaty-ness of it so I kept it.

I know classic shmup are far more snappy but I kind of like to experiment  with changes like these, just to see where it goes  :D

I did forget the "Pause" prompt, that's a very quick one to fix too, my bad.

Thank you so much for trying it and leaving some feedback,

 really appreciate that :)
