It doesn't feel too discovery-y to me but it's neat anyway. I wish I could shoot diagonally mostly.
One frustrating bug, though: Sometimes your bullets will skip pixels, particularly sometimes pixels right next to you, and go eliminate pixels further on instead. This seems minor, but backing up and repositioning to get rid of a wall on the way to the stairs is an excellent way to be killed by a ghost :p.
