Looks and plays like a hidden gem from the early Sega Genesis era.

Really solid entry, although after a while just sitting in the middle with a massive pile of corpses felt like I was unbeatable and actually had to try to lose. A Vampire Survivors-esque spin on it could work really well if you choose to continue this project.

Thanks! I did notice the difficulty issue myself after submission. I think we probably should have made the brown bug part not fire a weapon and just be armor.

Love the bug vibes - diggin the start menu, music, and over the top bug dying noises. Good work :)
