Nice implementation of a survivor-like game! I think it could be improve with some auto aim and if the enemies were slower! Good job tho! Keep making games!

Developer

Thanks for playing my game! i do agree with your feedback
i did have a thought of adding a difficulty or wave system but tryna do it as what the result is right now trying to know if people feel its too difficult without those features added since you said so ill probably consider adding them in the future
Much appreciated 👍

Nice, I like how movement is implemented and minimalistic drawn art style.

Although, I wonder, when enemies stick to our space ship, it's quite hard to get rid of them,  is it by design or not?

Thanks, glad you liked it!

for the enemies i do have a dillemma on whether i put a logic for them to avoid the spaceship hitbox occasionally so it doesn't always stick to the player or making it as it is on what the current result is

since i thought the first idea would not give that much big of a challenge to players so i just make them as it is currently
