Great game! I loved the music and art, even though it was simple.  I liked the double wave idea. I appricated the tutorial and the weapon recommendation - it was really a great idea, as I assume you had fun implemented various weapons, and recommended the ones who worked the best - I tried all of them, and my favourite is the one that rapid fire and bounce around

It was a little bit of a slog though, as there were only 2 enemies, and you unlock weapons slowly. Honestly the only upgrades I took were damage/fire rate - the rest seemed less needed. Also the game didn't full sized properly for me - it stay on the top left

I tried to screenshot the last screen but windows didn't save it for me for some reason - I think I survived to wave 23 or something like that - with more enemy variety and maybe faster progress and less issues, this one could be really awsome. Great job!

It is an interesting game.

Great work!

Outstanding work! Could use a bit more feedback on damaging, otherwise a full-on banger!

My game shares some similarities in its basic aspects. Let me know what you think about it! I'd love to get some advice (I guess you're experienced 馃榿 based on the entry)

Nice work! The game play is very tight and enjoyable. The music is banging as. Managed to get to wave 27 i think, and i don鈥檛 think there was a moment where i wasn鈥檛 enjoying the music.

As other鈥檚 have said the game over menu is misaligned, and I will say the slow punch through upgrade being behind the fast shooting uzi-like upgrade felt a little strange.

Overall though i think this is a really solid entry, great job!

I attempted to play, but the game over screen & menu were not lined up and would not let me retry/continue.
