“From the gameplay to the visuals, this game will surprise you a lot even in this early stage of development!”
“I'd alter each enemy's projectile speed, type, and color to make each one feel more unique. Maybe even add some type of 'skill' mechanic - like an EMP blast to remove shields, spawning in asteroids or other enemies, etc.”
“Otherwise, the gameplay screams 'twin-stick shooter' mechanics, but it's not.”
