would like to see some other spawn patterns, some encouragements for playing the long game. Maybe an ammo system. Still a fun game !

Would have been fun to have upgrades

Good old boomer shooter fun! It's satisfying to pull off huge combos. The web build ran well for me.

Really fun game! Kiting the skulls and blowing them all up at once was super satisfying. Ran well and looked smooth for me. Great job!

It took a while to load up. the music was choppy for me but thanks for giving me audio options in the beginning so i just turned them down. Gave me Doom vibes. I had Fun weaving in and out of maze like patterns to try to get big combos. I had a great time!

I personally had no audio problems or freezes. The game loop is simple but effective. The chain reaction saved me quite a few times ^^. Great job!

Two issues I couldn't figure out:

  • The game freezes for a few seconds when first going ingame from the main menu
  • The audio sounds really crunchy and awful for the first few seconds after first starting the game (anywhere from 10-30 seconds)

Other games in the jam have recommended playing in Chrome (and not Firefox) to avoid choppy music. I only get choppy music in Firefox for this one too.
