Very fun little game! Nice work! Not having control over the attacks feels appropriate for this kind of game, and the passive upgrades feel great. I like those character sprites, too. I did feel like I was cheating by walking off of the edges of the screen to get around enemies, and after I while, I had completely lost track of where my companion had run off to. I ended up with a total score of 71500, with 51900 of that coming from me.
Nitpicks:
- The screenshake starts to get pretty dizzying after a couple upgrades
- Enemies can spawn maybe just a smidge too close to where you're standing
