A short yet charming retro style indie game with fun power ups, plenty of puns, and a well designed difficulty curve. Some early levels were a little difficult for me since I hadn't played many games in this genre but it felt satisfying bring much better by late game. Cookieroid Monster (the 2nd boss of the game) was definitely the hardest for me. Some mini bosses were repeated a little too much and even a few main bosses played a little similar but that's not too problematic since there's a lot of variety amongst most enemies in this game. I do have 2 genuine complains. The first is I lost half the story worth of progress because I clicked start game which instantly saves over all your progress with no real way to get it back. This may have been patched as to not erase progress but I'm not sure. Regardless, it did genuinely make me disappointed in the game for about an hour before I sucked it up and played through half the levels again. The other complaint is the final boss crashed on me a few times and I know that has not been fixed as of this review. Overall though I did have a blast playing this game and for the very cheap price I can absolutely recommend it. I genuinely hope to see more games like this one. Shout out to Ryan and Exalin for their work on this game.
