Amazing, I was so prepared to play this for 3 hours straight. I almost cried at the end, absolute cinema 10/10. Can't wait for the sequel.

nice one, I like the reptilian enemies, I don't know if it goes in line with the "conspiracy theories" thematic, but, if so, I think its a good idea, I respect lore that makes sense.

The Enemies being lizards was  inspired  by  the joke(? at least  I hope so) conspiracy  theory of lizard people being  a big part of the  government and what  not. So the people living around the main character got transformed into other lizards because of the 5G. Why  does 5G do that? We thought it would be funny because  we could use that as an excuse that those conspiracy theories about 5G and lizard people are both correct and  somehow related.

Nice twist at the end. Brainwave weapon is so fun to use lol. The graphics are really amazing, I think the dark green color just makes it a bit difficult to see lizards on dark brown ground. All in all, good work, you did the game well.

Big fan of the spitting lizard. I like when he goes "Blugh"!

Had tons of fun with it! it seems the upgrades are predetermined, which might hurt replayability, but very solid game! At first I couldn't manage to change weapons, and then I realised the game expected me to stop attacking to do so. Congrats!

Has the feel of an old school flash game. Fun to play and enjoyed making a specific build. A higher difficulty spike would be great otherwise I would only use the beam upgrades.I also got locked at the end of wave 12. Good submission!

Glad you liked it and thanks for the feedback! The waves do get a bit more challenging towards the end but we really could've upped the ante a little. I remember there being some random error I couldn't reproduce,  sucks that that happened to you. We thought the game was pretty stable all in all but you can only ever do so much testing for a jam, sorry.
