Awesome project. I loved the art style and how clean the UI all fit together, even the font choice was spot on. The sound effects were a great mix of satisfying and relaxing, and I liked the balance of the difficulty a lot. Only critique is that I wish the shots moved a bit faster, they feel super slow travel wise, but other than that awesome work

Developer

Huge thanks for your positive feedback! I'll definitely take a closer look at the speed issue. Thank you again :)

Sound didn't work for me though...

Developer

It may be worth trying a different web browser or checking that your sound settings are not muted. I hope that helps!

Lovely minimal graphics. Very playable. Very smooth. Humorous. The moving eyes on grumpy are a really nice touch. Shooting is a bit slow, which is okay, but there should be some indication when you can shoot again. I like that you show the high score below the current score.

Developer

The shooting speed increases over time as more enemies spawn. I highly recommend keeping the left mouse button pressed, as it will automatically shoot once the cooldown is over. Thank you for your feedback!

Very nice game, looks really clean and has a lot of great details, e.g. the eyes movement etc.

Very well done!

I love visual and audio. I found this game too easy (may be I play too much at Vampire Survivor). Great entry !

Developer

The game becomes increasingly challenging as you progress, with every shot counting after reaching a score of around 550 points. Thank you for your kind feedback!
