I personally think the space's hitbox is way too large and I sometimes can't tell if some bullets are mine or the enemy's.

yes
I think the ship was a bit too large and clunky, and the enemies probably should have had different bullet colors to make them stand out more, but ultimately it was a serviceable little game. I like that there was light story that was never fully shown in-game; it reminds me of actual retro arcade titles.

Thank you for providing constructive feedback!
Ultimately, this was a quick project that purposefully ignored features like mobile support, additional powerups, a more elaborate ending fight, etc. It was mainly intended to be an exercise in constraining scope for the purpose of ensuring the game saw a proper release within the jam deadline; many of my previous projects and tech demos ended up in the scrapyard of unfinished projects and my absolute objective was to keep this from being one of them.
I'm definitely glad you found some fun playing the game, maybe we'll see a Space Damsel 2 someday.
