Hey

This is a surprisingly great game loop, I could keep going for hours on this. I did struggle with shooting a little bit especially the blue circle bullet. Nothing would happen on that, I don't know why. 

Good luck :)

I think I didn't ended up understand what the square bullet does but other than that it's a cool game ! :)

Totally blown away by this one. The base game play is super fun, and was awesome seeing the variety of weapon types and enemies. This is definitely an idea you could take and run with.

Enjoyed each new bullet upgrade! Nice work putting together all the music and sound effects too. Everything being a tad bigger would help for visibility.

Nice visuals! I recommend adding some screen shake or something. Also, a tad difficult to understand sometimes

Good job creating the enemies from simple shapes. Each was nicely distinct.

It seems you've used some gdextension(s) which are not supported in the web export, did you set the gdextension option whilst esporting?

Developer

Thank you for pointing that out. Yeah, I didn't set the GDExtension whilst I was exporting the web version. It should be playable now, though!

The web version did not work for me, so I downloaded the windows version, which works fine. The UI was pretty cute, and the background music kept the game from becoming boring at any point. It's also cool that you used all the wildcards. The only problem was that no enemies spawned at any point in the Windows version. I walked from tip to tip of the arena and no enemies spawned.

I had the same experience. The web version seems broken and there were no enemies spawning on the Windows version.

Developer

Thank you for playing! I already fixed both broken web version, and no enemies spawning on the Windows version.

Developer

Thank you for the feedback! Both the web version issue and the enemy spawning bug on Windows have been fixed. Appreciate you checking it out!
