Use of the limitation
The idea is to give the player upgrades after each "wave" or "round", but each with a downside, eventually breaking the game or destroying your run. Everything will be going wrong, because the upgrades are not always what they seem to be from their title and description.

Had a lot of fun trying different builds on this one! I was surprised by how strategic you can be with the upgrade choices, and the downsides made it a lot more interesting. The upgrades are really funny, I love the "mini gun", tower defense and isekai especially hehe. The main problem I had was with the mouse sensitivity, which was way too low even on the highest setting and I needed to manually increase my mouse's DPI to be able to play. Maybe it's a problem with firefox since I don't see anyone else mentioning it? The crosshair also seemed to not be very accurate, it was quite hard to aim sometimes (even without upgrades that messed with spread), which was probably worsened by the slow bullet speed (I think hitscan would've worked better here). I managed to make it to round 26 at which point the rounds took so long I just let myself get killed haha, fun game!

Thats an amazing Score! Thanks for Playing ^^
Yeah, regarding the mouse DPI there are some issues, generally aiming and such. I haven't worked with that much yet and there was not a lot of time to optimize, but thats definately something i will work on improving.
And yes the crosshair and shooting system in general is very flimsy from its very core haha, the bullets come from the guns barrel, but that is fixed in place with the cam, so depending on the distance the crosshair will not be where the bullet lands unfortunately. I might look into hitscan next instead of classic collisions.
Overall a nice experience, did get the hang of the shooting on the first try, but on the second could make to wave 5.
The greed when choosing the upgrades was my downfall.
I did put on the headphones but did not get so immersive, add some music, polish some sfx and it’s a good and fast game to play.
