Pretty fun, I like these kind of game
About the highscores though, it seems to be ordered from lowest to highest, shouldn't it be the opposite?
Anyway, nice game!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback and playing my game. Hmm, I'll take a look at that. Thanks for letting me know.

Fun. Reminded me of old NES games. I think you should push more development after the jam.

Developer

Thanks! Yeah, I was going for that feeling :) I will 100% keep working on this. Was a lot of fun

I think it would have been better if you made it MORE complicated.

Developer

It gets almost impossible after a while. What score did you get to?

Developer

I set the spawn_interval to 1.5 seconds initially, and then decrease it at different score milestones. For example, at 1,200 points, enemies spawn every 1 second, and at 5,500 points, they spawn every 0.4 seconds. There are more intervals too, of course. It gets kind of impossible to play at that point, in my opinion.

But waiting for this moment is boring

Nice, but I did find the music a bit repetitive. I hope you develop this into a incremental game!

Developer

Yeah, the music is kind of awful at the moment. Thanks for the feedback!

Simpler in what way? Thanks

Like either get rid of the moving or the aiming I think. And just focus on one of them.
