I really like the shoot'em up + tower defense idea, but the art style (browns against browns) makes it really difficult to see where's everything on screen.

Click three buttons and watch bullets cover the screen; the game! I liked the style of the minions but it was rather hard to see where they were/what they did with the background being so noisy, and there being 2000 bullets on the screen. I would lower the contrast on the background, and maybe make the bullets a bit smaller?

@Naxum: I'm glad there are people who appreciate what a Bullet Hell game is all about! :D Definitely understanding that the contrast between the demons and the background is not nearly high enough.
@Manest: The load screen describes it. It really is as simple as "press these buttons here, win". :)

You definitely managed to nail the "bullet hell" aesthetic. I couldn't seem to kill Michael.

Hey congrats on submitting! I found your game a little boring. Cool bullet effects. However, like others have said, couldn't tell what was going on. Not really sure how I won, but I did. Keep it up though.

The graphic of the 2nd demon (gray one) reminds me of devil from Forbidden Forest. Spam buttons, win game! Even though Michael cheated by hiding in a corner with a ray of blue blobs to destroy everything coming to him. The brown + brown color scheme makes it hard to see what is going on. Nice idea.
