Game description
Dive into a fast-paced platformer where strategy, skill, and survival collide! Jump across dynamic platforms, dodge or defeat cunning AI enemies, and test your reflexes with guns, sprinting, and high-altitude enemy drops. Collect points, survive waves, and race to reach the elusive green platform.

Theme interpretation
I interpreted waves by adding enemies that spawn in waves. The enemies start out at 3 and then increasingly get bigger and bigger until there is a literal wave of enemies. The player has to balance surviving the waves as well as platforming around to reach the green platforms. If the player goes too high, they risk a huge drop of enemies from the sky! Good luck everyone!

Cool fun premise. I like when a game does a risk/reward thing and I like the idea that you only get points for the platform and that if you go to high you spawn waves faster. Given your premise the enemies might be slightly less meaty I think it would make the wave part more wild if you could drop them faster. The overy numbery style is actually pretty cool. Overall there are some good bones here.

I like how the reload indicator is a massive float.
