This just isn't the game you're going to want it to be.
First, it doesn't use a sequencer. Sound effects do not contribute to or meaningfully interact with the music, despite the theme. Music tracks are uninteresting and, for lack of a better term, bland - for chill beats, these are still quite mild.
Second, as incremental games go, this follows the line of first figuring out how to inconvenience the player, then crafting upgrades the remove the inconvenience. At the start, you have a D&D style miss chance when you hit an enemy... until you max your very first upgrade, a cheap five step one that kicks things off. One of the very next ones you unlock? Stop XP drops from despawning (don't worry, also five cheap steps with a capstone "XP no longer despawns at all" just after). Your health drains automatically, until you buy the offsetting regen upgrade. Your bullet's range is short, until you buy the offsetting upgrades that bring it full-screen. The design just comes across as lazy, the play less about growing in strength as squirming out from under dubious penalties.
With that said, at the price I don't plan on refunding. It's not bad per se, just entirely skippable. With managed expectations it's not any worse than any other cheap time-waster.
