dope fish, automatic full stars.

little tough, but might be a skill issue on my part, i enjoyed it

Whoa, this boss-rush SHMUP was pretty dang cool! Not only does the game have a great set of challenging bosses to defeat with a very unique 'reflection' slap mechanic, but the game is also very charmingly goofy and bursting with energy with a lot of wacky dialogue, crunchy sound, doodle-y art, and over-the-top animations. Even though it throws you straight in and can be a bit confusing and the difficulty can be a bit wack with some later bosses being easier than early bosses, I really enjoyed myself, and liked how the bosses pushed the mechanic in interesting ways, like how the second boss needs you to be more aggressive in your reflections so as to hit him before he dodges away.

Having said that, while the very goofy art is its appeal, it can certainly be a bit too much at times in creating visual noise that leads to unfair, cheap deaths. For example, when you block a hail of bullets, it's very easy to lose track of some stragglers because they get hidden by the 'pow' effects. Furthermore, I was dying for the game to include some quality-of-life mechanics like an auto-fire to save my hands from having to mash the fire button, as well as a button to hold down to move more slowly to dodge these tight bullet spreads. I also kept getting caught off-guard by how little respawn invincibility there is.

Needs a pause and a mute

needs a button to slow down your movement. otherwise great game.
