This game is a blast! Getting those chain combos off is so much fun, and the eggsplosions are very satisfying! Normal mode was very accomodating to my bad first timer build, I will have to cook up something better for the next run!

This is really fun, the scaling is at a surprisingly perfect rate so that you have to be extremely conscious of what upgrades you pick. Overall it's perfectly balanced and really fun to play with a nice learning curve and progression. My high score after a few attempts was 800. I love being able to use reactions as well. This game is super fun and I hope to see a full version in the future.

There are only 3 minor things I would change it would  change:

1. A way to rearrange the elements you choose in the hotbar and also be able to save elements for later in your inventory so that you can get a full inventory of every element, just not usable at once. To balance this elements may need to become more uncommon though, and I would maybe even mix them in with the standard loot pool of upgrades.

2. More enemies! The ghosts scaling was fine and still lead to really fun gameplay as enormous hoards of powerful ghosts covering the entire screen move toward you. However, it was a bit confusing at first that I couldn't one shot a ghost with 20 damage upgrades later in the game even though I could with none at the beginning. To avoid this it would be nice if there were some other creatures that appeared as you progressed and all had set health values, speed, and damage.

3. Optimization. I couldn't really tell if all the ghosts were loaded all the time, but I assume they were as at one point there were hundreds upon hundreds of ghosts on my screen, which lagged the game to about 10 fps even when I ran away. Another option to fix this may be to remove collision and just have some checks be used to keep the ghosts from running over each other, but that might not work and would make pathfinding tougher.

Only the last one is something that really needs any attention and the others are more so quality of life. That's just my opinion. Overall I really enjoyed the game, it had a really nice artstyle, memorable music, and super engaging gameplay. I will be playing it more in the future. Looking forward to a full release!

a cool take on the survivors genre. You really start feeling powerful once you get the hang of mixing the elemental effects. The HP bar is hard to read once the action gets going. I wish there were no numbers, just a clearly visible bar that you can check quickly from the corner of your eye. It could also use some variety in enemies to give you more feeling of progression besides just stacking bigger numbers for minutes. Fun to play! Hope you will do some little updates once the voting is over.

Cool survivor vibes. I made it up to 400 seconds. The way the elements interact is awesome! I kept switching between attacks to see what happens.

Honestly, just a blast to play through. The sound and visual effects are perfect and when you get the combinations going, the ensuing explosions have that sweet crunchyness, that impact that it needs to be really satisfying. I'm not entirely sure if it's intentional, but at one point, everytime I'd level up, two of the upgrades would be Special related, which didn't really fit with me since I didn't use the Specials a whole lot (I probably should've lmao).

With all of that being said, this game is very satisfying to play and also quite well optimised. It only really started to get some small lag in the last 5 minutes or so of my run, and only when I'd stack a bunch of enemies after me.

Nice job on this game! I had a lot of fun playing it!

Really enjoyed how you mixed the two themes together. Felt really satisfying when they clustered together and you nuked all of them at once.

Music is boss. The game mechanics are not apparent initially but get more and more fun the longer you play and understand. It's easy to get in the middle of playing this and forget it was done in two weeks. Awesome entry and great work!

Very upbeat sounding! I enjoy it! And leveling up is quite frequent, which kept me  absolutely engaged! and combing of elements fit the theme so well
