I have to admit that I did not manage to get to the bullet hell part, maybe I was going the wrong way but there seemed to be an impossible jump.. (or maybe I am just kinda bad haha)
A small bit of constructive criticism would be to reduce the time to respawn, especially given how often you die haha
Also really simplistic, but great music and art too!
The bullet hell part was unexpected but cool. I died after a few waves. Is this endless or does it have an end? I felt like the movement was a little bit slow to react to all the bullets. Also maybe making the player/bullet hitbox smaller would probably make it feel slightly better when navigating through lots of bullets. Really liked the soundtrack in this part.
All in all great entry. Keep up the good work!
