Gets really tough after a while. Could use some music. The graphics are simple but it's all in the same style which makes it look nice. Good job!
The screenshake is perfect! It lets one feel the impact of the attack.
After you loose, you can still kill some squares inside the main square to gain extra points :)
The combat feels very tactile and responsive thanks to the screen shake and knockback. The art is minimalistic, but pleasant to look at :) I really like the interactive min-tutorial!
Enjoyable game, cute assets, and a great difficulty curve!
You did a great job polishing this game, the only thing it's missing is some background music. ;)
I like how there's no set attack speed and that it's dependent on user click speed. This makes the attack very responsive. Nice touch that the cursor is confined, so there's no accidental clicking outside of the game window. I like the hand-drawn art style and that the game is playable in the browser as well.
i think it is really nice how you introduce the game. using the games own rules to do meta- actions (like start new game) is something one can always get bonus points with me.
However, the controls are kind of difficult for me. I have difficulties focusing both on moving into the right direction with the keyboard and on pointing the attack into the right direction.
Yeah I guess the game is a bit difficult, espacially in some of the last waves.
I'm glad you liked the tutorial, and I hope you enjoyed the game anyway :)
Really fun little game, you went with a pretty common mechanic, yet the waves are pretty fun, I really liked the hand drawn assets for the keys and mouse!
Thanks for trying the game ! It was hard coming up with new wave ideas (and drawing keys and mouse on the touchpad :) )
