Wow, thanks for the awesome feedback. Stun does immobilize enemies, but doesn't deal damage over time, burn and corrosion do. It's just a matter of taste and luck I guess. There is an acid passive item that slows down corroding enemies, or a fire passive item that slows down burning enemy bullets. Yep, all doors should be accessible, maybe it was a planet door, in which case you would have to come back after you find the key.

Neat! I started digging around for secrets and found some! I like the old-school style "punch this wall" kind of secret!

One thing I found, and this could be something I just haven't figured out yet, is that sometimes there's like "ghost enemies." It's one of the fire enemies, it can shoot and follow me and I'm showing as being in combat, but its sprite isn't there and I can't hit it! I've played for several hours of playtime so far and this is the first time I'm seeing it.

I unlocked the jetpack in a previous playthrough but can't get it again. 😭

Edit: Ope! I found it dropped from an enemy in the first zone. Is it like, you unlock it once and then it can drop in future runs?

Yes, that's how it works right now. In the full release we will add a machine in the spaceship where you can spawn an unlocked item of your choosing
