That doesn't surprise me - I'd be the first to admit that I'm practically tone deaf! I think I was going for a "Pacific Rim"-esque (giant robots vs giant sea monsters) feel in my head, but my limited pixel art skills meant the graphics didn't really fit with that level of epicness. Glad you enjoyed the gameplay though :)

Why thank you! I think it's probably just down to experience as it's the sixth game I've made now. :)

Thanks! I hope it came across clearly - I have a habit of making the game and then forgetting to explain it until the end, so I just have to hit people with a wall of text at the beginning.
