good job, nice bomb animation and the middle pad as well

This is fun! I think finding another hook, to make the shooting being the way you move along with how you kill should be more connected! Like perhaps mostly trying to get away being the core experience, and if you can double up by getting away and killing enemies seems pretty good! But then having stuff like holes you can fall down or mines that go off or a counter weapon that grapples you towards enemies could be a good balance of strategy, yknow?

Thanks, great ideas, I was going to add holes but I didn't have time. a grappling hook sound like a fantastic idea, I will add it after the jam ends, thanks for the recommendation

Very interesting game design where you travel and defend! A little bit hard at the defend stage as we need to stay at the spot, so I have to shoot double in counter directions fast for an enemy hit! And it encourages fast movement. I like it! I love the animation when the player tower is turning, super satisfying to watch!

Thanks, I made the animations in 3d(in blender) and rendered them as pixel art sprites
