Thanks for sharing your game !
Firstly congratulations on participating in your first game jam, I hope you had a good time 😃
I also like the music, thanks for making me search about Eric Skiff, he has good tracks indeed !
Your game good but very simple and could have many more things coming in,
Some ideas :
- The story, meaning of why we play is very abstract for now. You named Bob and Billy, use them to add some context / story and explain who, why they are, why do we need to protect the central cube. Some lore :D
- I found the beam weapon much more efficient next to the laser shot, maybe boost up the laser shot damage a little. Being slow while firing beam is not enough as a drawback. Maybe also allow auto-firing while keeping leftmouse pressed.
- Add some diversity in the enemies, you can keep them as simple design like this but for example change the colour, make them faster, moving differently, etc. For now the waves goes on but doesn't bring new stuff to the gameplay
Keep it up ! 💪
