I am DEFINITELY no good at this game, but I love the concept. Basically turning the usual game on its head. I just wish I was better at getting the bombs and avoiding the hearts (a sentence I never thought I'd type in real life).
Hey man, I did my full 10-minute review during my Twitch Stream last night (twitch.tv/aaknox), but I'm going to summarize what I said during my review:
Art: Everything was drawn great. But the almost-one tone color of everything is red, so all those details are lost because of that. I would definitely suggest that you choose different color for the walls to stand out better.
Animations and Controls: Controls were very simple, which is I love. However, the animations need some revision. If the player starts in idle, then it should be a still frame instead of a mid-stride frame. The pickup UI looks neat though.
Sounds and Music: The sounds are awesome, guys! No complaints there.
Overall gameplay: The base concept for the game works for the theme. However, the level design is formatted for like a mobile game instead of a web browser game. Overall, once you guys find a great balance curve for the game, this will be a very good game.
Thanks! That was a detailed and accurate review. I agree with you on most of the drawbacks you mentioned, which were largely caused by the limited amount of time we had to eork on this game.
I am definitely going to keep on eye on your twitch streams.
I think you should balance the game difficulty because right now it's quite too hard and it introduce frustration but otherwise it's a great game, i think it fit well the mobile game format
Thanks for your feedback! I updated the game and adjusted the difficulty and added music and sound effects. I would be delighted if you try it again and tell me your opinion.
Definitely picked up like 50 red hearts before giving the description another look :P
Got pretty fun after all the heart types where happening in the same level. Sometimes the bombs or hearts got caught on the edge of the map while falling.

Hahaha. I fixed the bug you mentioned and made few changes on the game. Feel free to play it again and have fun!
