I'm glad you enjoyed the game. I had planned on adding sound effects as you suggested but I had run out of time. For the art, I plan on learning how to create better art in the future. Thank you for your feedback, I plan on applying this in the future.

The game is very addicting to play! Couldn't stop playing for 10 minutes. It was a slow start but it became challenging as time went by. Maybe you could've made it more difficult by also making the enemies come from the bottom and top.

It's great to hear you liked my work! Your suggestion on adding more routes for enemies is something I will surely implement on future projects.

A couple of things to help with your game:

  • Add  in more varied attacks to help sell the idea that you're playing as the boss. Nice touch on having a cooldown on the shockwave one, though.
  • Have the shockwave kill the heroes rather than just pushing them away. Add up the points based on how many you kill.
  • Add in an unconventional enemy that would help invalidate the player's safety by just standing still and therefore, cheesing your game.

Thank you for your insightful feedback. I will consider these the next time I make something similar to this.
