The game was a lot of fun ^v^, if I were to nitpick one thing or two, the loading between sections is a bit jarring and the loading screen doesn't pause the timer, which luckily there was still plenty of time to finish the level so there was no issue, but also when you die it just throws you back in, which I wasn't ready for hahahaha, having a button press or smth might be better to assure the player is ready.
I am obviously intentionally digging for nitpicks (and I'm assuming I'm supposed to be finding things to comment on...? I never beta tested a game before), since I don't see any real flaws or anything, the game was awesome.
Great work ^0^
EDIT: I FORGOT TO MENTION I LOVED THE SPRITE WORK
Sprites are so so nostalgic this really felt like a classic flash game I loved the sprites especially for the boss, his animations looked so good.
