THIS RETRO PIXEL 3D STUFF IS SO HARD TO PULL OFF AND YET Y'ALL MAKE IT LOOK SO BEAUTIFUL SO EFFORTLESSLY. I LOVED TEH CRABS AND THE ROBOT AND THE BUILDINGS THAT GOT MORE AND MORE DESTROYED AS TIME PASSED. FEEDBACK: IT WAS HARD TO EARN ENOUGH MONEY TO MAKE MY FIRST UPGRADE AND I WASN'T SURE HOW TO REFILL AMMO. BEING ON WAVE 3-4 WITH NO UPGRADES IS ROUGH-- I WOULD SMOOTH A BIT OF YOUR EARLY GAME AND BE MORE GENEROUS TO THE PLAYER. GREAT WORK!

Really cool looking game! Loved the modeling and aesthetic. I did have a bit of trouble with the camera when it would get stuck on an upgrade block. Nice work!

Thank you for the feed back I will update the camera angle when voting for the jam is done, I'm glad you liked the art!

Really great style of a game and well made at that. Nice job for 2 weeks of work. But the Mech is to preset in the camera and blocks the line of sight towards the enemies, but still a really good game❤

I think makings some changes to the camera angle would do a lot to help the playability. But i like the graphics and i can tell you put a lot of work into it! Good job!
