Art is nice, music is solid and doesn't get irritating, and it uses the mic (!), shield power up was a nice surprise.

Hey Dom! Thank you for the feedback 🙂! There are just the 3 enemies in this version. The variation comes in with more enemies per wave and speed increases at waves 10 and 20. Though more enemies and firing variants are a great idea for a future version!

The art is mostly from itch assets, though one of the enemies was done by me, and the cover art was some by my wife.

Glad you liked the cat, it was my final stretch goal for the jam 😺!

I liked it! A fun concept and pretty well executed. I liked the inclusion of different enemies and power ups.
