  • Wave survivor is fun. Audio is a bit repetitive and gets a bit annoying after a bit. Not much of a difference between enemies, but seem to get stronger as level progresses.

I survived! I've never played Vampire Survivors, but I had fun with this one. The shooting system took getting used to, I would definitely have preferred something that shoots at the mouse instead or maybe press and hold to fire in the direction of the mouse. Firing diagonally was nearly impossible and took sheer luck / number of enemies on screen.

Very fun premise! I wish it had an infinite mode that would just keep getting harder and more crowded. The upgrades made sense and were interesting; I was hoping for a speed upgrade but went for max damage (+2 damage, double shots, and faster attacks), mostly ignoring the health and pickup range ones. The enemies filled up the screen QUICK...I wish there was a way to deal AoE or something to get rid of more of them. With the strange aiming control scheme, I found myself stutter-stepping the timing of the shots to look backwards at the enemies chasing me while still moving.

Feels easy to expand on this game...different upgrades/stat buffs, enemies that can shoot back, health + speed + damage of enemies gradually increasing, etc. Great jam entry!
