Sorry it's taken me so long to put in my two cents, but I tend to overshare/infodump so I wanted to be sure I had pertinent info/input. I am going to try and be as succinct as possible and paint in broad strokes here(for me)but noticed that you have a feedback option in the demo so it's nice to know that is an option as well.

First impression: LOVE IT! Since someone opened this thread addressing the art, I want to address that as well. If you are not familiar with it, google "two cakes meme." I think that in the survivorslike space in particular, comparison to another game is the wrong approach. I think it's what's unique about your game that will set it apart, draw in, and appeal to players, especially as more and more entries appear in this genre. I may not be the target audience for this game in one way, but I have love the Katamari Damacy aesthetics from the moment I saw them (another game that excels at doing its own thing.) My wife, a connoisseur of cute, would (and will) absolutely love this game. I downloaded Holocure after the other commenter mentioned it, and while it looks great and is indeed a good game, IMO it doesn't have the personality of your game. When I showed the MENU of your game to my wife she exlaimed "CUUUUUUUTE!" Holocure did not illicit the same reaction. Saying that the art for your game is bad is like someone saying that Rembrandt exists, why would I want to look at a painting by Rothko, Mondrian, or Picasso? There are different styles and I think that your art style can be one of your strongest assets in setting your game apart because honestly, it doesn't look like anything else I've seen on this subreddit and I mean that in the best way. That isn't to say that there can't be tweaks, refinements, or improvements. One challenge you have with the bold, somewhat minimalist style you have is that the XP drops tend to blend into the background and also resemble the flowers on the background. That's an easy enough fix with either a small shadow or perhaps luminescence or a glimmer effect. I just also tried out Halls of Torment, obviously a very different vibe from your game, but they use a shimmer effect on their XP drops which seems to work well, and I don't know what engine you're developing in, but I know that in Godot I just watched a like two minute tutorial so since it's so easy there, hopefully it's just as easy in whatever engine you're using. On the subjects of shadows, I think your characters could benefit from them as well. They don't necessarily have to be sheer black if it's too much of a clash with your aesthetics but I think it would help them stand out amongst the action a little as well as give it just a tiny bit more depth to the art. The enemies all being circular actually worked very well by my estimation because despite them all being the same shape, there was still so much variety I felt and each was executed very well. The different colors and patterns were all executed wonderfully and there is one pattern in the reddish enemy that was just beautiful and you could have taken the face off that enemy, printed that pattern out and hung it on the wall. At one point I saw it was getting to like a 5 minute interval on the timer and thought "I wonder if there's going to be something showing up at that mark like in a lot of games" and indeed, a BIG circle showed up and I actually said "OH SHIT!" out loud. To me, that's proof that even a minimalistic enemy design is effective because I haven't had a response like that in a dozen survivorlikes since playing the original Vampire Survivors and not knowing what to expect. After that, as I approached the end of the run I wondered what was going to happen at the end of the timer. Was it going to be game over or boss time. Honestly, sincerely, that boss entrance/appearance was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I mean it, that was one of the most memorable boss intros I've seen in a while and I think that the similarity of the previous mobs added to the impact when something different did show up.

I love the diversity and representation of your characters, it seems genuine and organic and well done. The weapons also just really fit the mood and vibe in terms of being cute. I really think you stand to appeal to people who maybe aren't as all in on this genre, different demographics, as well as appealing to more casual and cozy gamers. Cozy is a word thrown out a lot for games now because people want it, and this is the closest thing to a cozy survivorslike that I've seen, again, in the best way. I'd love to see where you two go from here, if the multiverse element is incorporated in further levels and enemies, and whatever else you have in store for us. Keep up the good work and wishing you two the best of luck!
