the hitbox of the character is unclear, everything is easy until the final boss and there are no checkpoints.

I love the visuals of this game and the idea of corrupting the world to get stronger a lot :) It's fun to play and the final boss is very challenging!

The graphics are fantastic. The background music fits the visual style, but when you get max upgrades, the projectile sounds stack too much and cause a glitchy sound.

The colors and the art of the game looks amazing ! The gamplay was pretty easy until you get to the last boss. The bullets of your character should have limted range since i could just spam out bullets from a range where the enemy bullets were super strayed. Overall a nice gaming experience !

Super clean look of the game, I think the menu UI is intended for a 16:9 ratio monitor so it got funky on my 21:9 but np
I agree that the game is very easy until the final boss, and I wish it was all as challenging as the final boss. I do enjoy the progression of my abilities.
I feel like because the shooting mechanic goes in a big spread, that I'm supposed to be fighting many small enemies, but I end up aiming on of my many missiles at a single enemy.
I tend to favor more targeted shooting mechanics (not spread) because then I have to have more skill to aim properly.
I love the music and atmosphere in this game, and I appreciate the inclusion of a win state :) Overall, awesome job!

The environment looks awesome! Nice colors, cute characters, relaxing music, great effects and nice weapon upgrades. The movement is a bit slow until you get the dash and after a few corruptions your completely overpowered. But very good nonetheless!

The first encounter with a great soul and the chaos that ensues was a real thrill. I would like to be made to work a little more before upgrading though I appreciated being able to corrupt worlds and upgrade right away to test out the abilities you made. SOULS: REAPED
