How does your game fit the theme?
There's an upgrade section (the calm) before each run where you can spend currency to enhance the run (the storm).
Did you write all the code and made all the assets from scratch?
For the code, yes. As for the assets, most of them are royalty-free.

Even though the graphics are simple, the controls and gameplay carry the experience. It reminds me a lot of the old flash days and I could imagine myself playing this over and over again in computer class haha
Really cool game! Like the overall concept and the upgrades were quite interesting. Feedback: Definitely needed more polish(sfx, screen shake, particles, etc.). I liked the upgrades but the game got boring after 1 or 2 runs and was fairly easy. I would've liked it better if got coins for every wave u finished and and upgrade panel showed up every wave. Would've made it more interesting and strategic. However really cool game and can't wait to see more :D
Pretty cool game overall! The graphics could obviously be improved, and you could definitely add some more juice and polishing to this game, like particles and screenshakes. I loved the music and the different enemy types. But for the theme, I didn't think this was a very good fit. Other than that, good job!
Really cool game!! Went on to play until I got all the upgrades and was going to play it more if not for playing the other games. Smooth and crisp controls. Loved it!!!
Just could have added some thing that depicted the theme a bit more.
Kudos!! you made a great project..
Hope I had a good score :D
Hee-ho. Cool game
I really like the game design aspects of a roguelike where you die and come back stronger and that game type has always been fun, and this game hit those 2 concepts pretty well! The graphics and mechanics remind me of what I would make back in my Scratch days! The music and sfx were rather relaxing and I zoned out to wave 14. As for the theme, being honest I don't think it fits very well but that might just be me. For game balance I think it's pretty good, other than the Shotgun being better than the more expensive Piercer and damage upgrades not really impacting the game (purple and cyan enemies take one less hit to kill between no upgrades and max upgrades and none of the other enemies take any fewer hits to kill). The graphics are very simple pixel and I like that someimes, though I feel like anti-aliasing was causing it to blur a little which is a pixel's worse nightmare. If I could change just a few things it would be to add a boss at the end of every stage with the Piercer doing extra damage to bosses and make enemies have more health but the damage upgrade has more increase so that each upgrade has a real impact on gameplay.
I love how tight the controls feel! I can see so much potential in this game! Congrats!
Very arcady and minimal but fun to play game xD Got a new high 🍀
not a bad little survivors-like
I enjoyed this game. Found it hard to see the bullets against the background in Area 1. Area 2 background was definitely much better.
loved the agar.io look fr! could lean harder into that aesthetic.
i think that it would be more interesting to unlock weapons and upgrades in the run, not only in the main screen. is kind overwhelming the first time
idk if it was intentional for the bullets to curve tho!
overall very simple and fun experience, perfect for some quick play, i'd love to see some online version .io style
I like the simplicity of this game. Had fun playing it
the game is fun!and simple!
This game really reminded me of the flash era, where games were very simple but also had a lot of replayability. What made it very replayable was the upgrade feature, which lets me buy different weapon types and armor which I can use in subsequent runs (my fave weapon btw is the shotgun, it's so good).
I do think however that the color of the background and the objects on the screen can be adjusted a bit, as at times the objects can blend in and become hard to see because of the background. Overall though, I still enjoyed the game, and I am glad I was able to get a high score of 2,913 on it!
The Game is really addicting, and fun! The polish is amazing as well! WELL DONE
Very simplistic, but extremely fun! It feels like the perfect arcade game, and I can definitely see it with a scoreboard in the future with everybody competing to be at the top. The different weapons and upgrades add a lot of variety to the game. The only complaint that I have is that it's hard to see enemy projectiles in later stages when the background color changes, it would be nice if they maybe had an outline, were bigger or if there was an option to change the colors. Honestly, I am enjoying this game too much and will probably be playing it in my lunch hour at work xD
Love the enemy variety! Simplistic but very rewarding! Love the upgrades :D
This game is really fun, I spent a long time playing it
I really enjoyed the game, the calm and chaos phase dynamic is awesome! I think this type of game has a lot of potential. If you improve the music and graphics, it could go far!
Thank you!
Felt very fast paced and had a good time - This has good foundations for a game to build up upon so nicely done!
Thank you! If this game was to be developped further, what would you like to see in the game?
