This was very fun! I love the multitasking and interesting decision making that comes from it. I would have liked the upgrades to be during maybe a rest period between waves where you can consider what you want to buy. I usually am a sucker for upgrade games, but this one was so fast paced that it took away all the potential fun of upgrading. That said, I still had a lot of fun anyway! Great work!

Very polished game! Great job! In my opinion the beginning is a bit hard because you have to control the shield and the turret! Maybe add one thing a bit later in the game!

Crash & DriveNice game :)
I like your transition animation between the main menu and the game.
It is very challenging to upgrade your cannon while you have to fight against the meteorites, but thats not bad :)

Dain the DragonThe idea that I can control the cannon + the laser grid is really cool and works well. Much more interesting than just having the cannon! + the UI and main menu is really nice, in all a really good game well done!!!

Turret Protection934 High-score! I liked it a lot, perhaps my only suggestion would be to have the enemies spawn in more of a wave-thing. Because at the moment, you didn't really have time to chose your upgrades - as soon as you looked away at the icons - asteroids punished you at once.
I guess after a few more tries you get to know where the buttons are and what's what so perhaps that's not much of an issue. ^^
The game looks very welded together and it feels really good to play! Well done. :)

Meow Meow AvogatoThis game was very good the use of powerups was a very good touch. The game looked great and fit the theme perfectly. The sounds were good however the music could've had a little more. overall 9/10.

TestSubjectThe shield and gun combo really came together in this game it felt very deliberate and strategic! Wonderful job on this submission enjoyed my time thoroughly :D

AnimaspireThe sprites and the menus are really well done, I also appreciate a lot the "double mechanic" of having both the shield and the turret. It could have been interesting to have some variety in terms of asteroids with different properties, but having upgrades available still manages to give enough variety and progression. As a minor note, I felt that the difficulty ramped up a bit too harshely, but I may be just bad at playing ahahah

K/Nightnice game! it is very similar to a game I made a while back except with shooting and upgrades! the game is a little hard but with some skill people can surely master it.

Swords and BotsReally fun, very engaging with so many things to manage, and cool aesthetic! It was very hard but not unfair, which is a very good basis for streamers. I can really see streamers getting competitive over this one :)

Nut on my watchreally fun and simple game! I think i would have prefered doing the upgrades in between runs instead of in the middle of the action but overall fun!
