Great run n gun game!
I really have to pay attention to my power meter as it doesn't refill as fast as my shooting. But other than that, I can manage :D
This game is a perfect blend of speed platforming and bullet hell. I couldn't go five seconds without worrying about my health, which is a good thing because without that it'd just be an instant win.
The bosses are fun. Really unique as well! The first one is nice, reminds me a bit of the Death Egg Robot, but faster and with a cool damage twist! The second one is equally brilliant, I love the idea of a boss practically spitting enemies at you while you fight it.
I haven't gotten through the second one...
The difficulty of the platforming, life upkeep, and boss mechanics make for a great, enjoyable, and also partially soul crushing experience. Great work.

Also,this game reminds me the good old days of Sonic,Megaman,and other platformers way back in the 90s
Cheers:)
