Upgrades are too expensive, the difficulty of level 5 compared to level 4 is crazy, and movement speed is pretty bad. i really like the art style/concept and all but I would try to implement a reasoning as to why you should go from point A to B. If the player is inside an asteroid, i would make it to where the entrance is from the outside of the asteroid and the end of the level is the exit of it, creating a sense of immersion by "clearing" the asteroid instead of just making it to the finish line. Maybe even a slide animation upon exit/entrance. I hope this is helpful commentary
LATER EDIT: writing to let you know the prices have been halved! Thanks for the feedback! Hey, thank you for the feedback, indeed, super useful! Yes, I plan to change that finish line, it's something until I add more content to the game. Movement speed is something meant to be upgraded in the future with maybe engine purchases. The items are also expensive because they're not meant to be bought just yet, you'll need them in future levels. More levels coming out this weekend. Question: did you play level 5 with a shield / armor, or without any items? having a forward shield equipped helps a lot
