Can't seem to play this. The web link is just a white screen for me and the windows link just takes me back to this page.

Procedurally generated boss battles. Cool idea. It's really hard and it'll be hard to balance the difficulty with randomly generated bosses.

For controls I wasn't a fan of using the mouse to shoot at only 90 degree angles. I feel like if I'm shooting 90 degree angles I should be able to use keys, and if I have to use the mouse, I should be able to shoot at an angle.

Good idea, fun game, I'm not a fan of mouse controls for this, WASD and Arrow Keys would have been better I feel. I like the random creations that can occur, very bizarre! I could only get as far as round three though :D
One kinda big problem is, when you kill a boss your guy is frozen until you click 'next' - but enemy missiles and bullets still can harm you during this time, very unfair!

bug I found: I held up key, the guy walked to the wall at the top, seemed to bounce off it, I tried again and just kept holding up key and... he then bounced all the way off the bottom of the screen where he is stuck to this day :(
I think this is true of all directions, but I only tested it with the top wall.
