Really solid entry! I loved all the improvements and updates from the round 1 entry like some updated art and effects. I also liked the round based system with an upgrade shop in between.

Played this on stream (but lost the recording cause first time doing it, sorry!)
As the comments also point out, great work on the new systems and the overall gameplay! The boss had nice binding of isaac vibes, and i really enjoyed the whole gameplay.

I am being nitpicking here, but would have been curious how the sound could be used to tell a story. 

Congratulations again, great fun game!

Hi, thanks for the feedback! The "story" is told through the voices that fade in every so often. You may have accidentally turned that off, that's what the "The Voices" setting in the menu means.

The upgrade system is a nice addition to your game. I really like how when collecting the “money” you have a sense of urgency or it will disappear, adds a bit of risk vs reward. The music was a bit loud, so it was hard to make out the narration. Great job.

Even more fun than your round 1 version, love the inclusion of the shop upgrades! Though I will say I'm pretty sure the attack speed upgrade far outweighs the others, but that's just a small balancing issue

A great leap forward since the last round and it was great in that round.

I really liked this game in Round 1.  But you definitely managed to take it to the next level.  The upgrade system was a great addition as well.  Great job!

I can't stop but keep loving this game, the addition of the story was really cool, I love how you actually have to "pay attention" instead of it being spoonfed to you. Also I beat the Dwayne Difficulty so I'm clearly amazing.
