Really loved the vibe of this! I felt the beeping audio got a little annoying after a while, I think that could be replaced with something a little more subtle. Also sometimes I would accidentally click and buy something from the shop since I was already clicking the mouse button, so maybe there needs to be a slight delay before the shop appears. Overall a great entry though!

this game reminds me a lot of brotato / 20 min till dawn i like the upgrade system. 
 The only thing I would change is that the slime grows when you don't shoot 
 as I was always on 1 bullet to keep him away from me
 but i like it

Really like this game!!! Interesting concept. Great execution. I was engaged the entire time. Like the sense of risk and reward. Do I gain more bullets but reduce my vision or keep firing to reduce the horde of enemies coming towards? It depends haha. Tactically, it's pretty easy if you can get past the very beginning of rush. Fun to see to more upgrades with weapon. Awesome Game! Good job!

Really like the quick movement and creepy design! Wasn't sure how to keep out the slime border effectively, it seems to widen when I shoot? Thinking maybe its part of the gameplay to try and balance your shots and the border? Great entry!

Loved the art and sound design! Plus the idea that saving your bullets is actually a negative thing is very interesting. Nice game!
