Does your game contain AI-generated content?
I asked ChatGPT for help with solving some bugs I could not fix. Copy pasting was never used.
How does your game fit/incorporate the theme of the game jam?
The game is about starting as the V1 body, and evolving past it. Though I did not have time to implement such a mechanic.

Fun game but enemies get stuck beside the machine, making the game difficulty non existent.
I have seen your list of things to add, you should cut that list in half and anything that you didn't mention is probably not that important, if you want to finish this game only add what's most important or you will suffer from scope creep.
Good luck with development!
The crosshair being shaped like a turtle is a nice touch. I think it would be better if you could move while shooting / reloading. And maybe consider giving Neuro a more unique weapon instead of a generic handgun.
The idea was that this is Neuro's V1 model, using a handgun with 10 bullets a magazine. After the first few waves you can evolve into NeuroV2 or into Evil Neuro, player's choice, with different weapons and the ability to attack while moving. Thanks for playing and for the feedback.
Nice simple game. The movement could be more fluid. Having the waves tied to the terminal is an interesting choice but maybe needs a more compelling mechanic for it to not feel like a chore. Thanks for making it though!
