Great soundtrack and controls! However, the levels feel somewhat lengthy, and the downtime in between gets a little boring.

A pretty fun Brotato like game. The power up design is very smart around the count down theme and i think it has a lot of potential. Character is simple but effective. Overall a pretty fun game!

Nice game. Music bugged at some point. Really enjoyed it :)

I liked the game a lot. it was hard but I kept wanting to play it again and again!

Very fun. Maybe took a few too many waves to start introducing the other shapes. Also a hit effect when a bullet hits an enemy would go a long way. Also always impressed with a game that implements upgrades/powerups in such a short time.

Just plain fun

really clean and satisfying game!

nice job, enjoyed the game! 

I loved this game, it is so easy to play and enjoy. Only thing that I would change is putting the music in loop because it only plays once and the theme is nice. Well done ;)

Hello, really liked the game, wish you luck for the rest :) peace

This game reminds me of diep io and a roguelike merged into one game. I like this idea.

The upgrades are cool and unusual (big shot if ends with 9 for exampe, or movement speed on odds). I'd say it's very original.

The graphics are basic but coherent. It's an easy an fun game.

Yep, as the others said, the levels last a little bit too long.

I think the controls in this game are pretty smooth, and tying upgrades to time is quite interesting. However, like others have said, the levels feel a bit too long. Also, the background music seems to stop after playing just once?
IMO most of the part in the game is quiet nice. Just need some more play testing I guess. Good job :).

basic execution is good, but i feel like waves drag on for too long for how basic the enemies are.

Thanks alot for playing my game! I had alot more than these in mind but I think I went a little to ambitious for trying to do this solo.

This is a very fun little game!  I enjoy the upgrades being based on the clock.  I'd say my main feedback is that the waves feel long, especially for only getting one upgrade per wave

Developer(+1)

Thanks alot for playing my game and the feedback! I really wish I could've polished this further and get some playtesting from other people, but I'm happy with what I could get done in the time. I'll take this feedback into account if I plan to revisit this game further.

Yeah very fair!  It's tough to get a game together in such a short time, especially as a solo developer.  If you check out my game you'll see it's quite unpolished lol
