Hey, thanks for the feedback! We had a lot of fun making this game as a university project, and we plan to keep working on it for a while.
We had a pause menu but it was really buggy so we decided to scrap it for the final version, and the fact that the volume meter actually does something is new to me ahah, menus were made by designers and I thought it didn't work at all so I kinda just renamed it for fun :) For the controls, we wanted to put everything in the settings menu and make it tweakable, and also as scribbles in the elevator. The enemy spawn is also kind of stupid right now and we're planning on reworking things, the slot machine as well, we have an idea for it to give the player 3 random upgrades to choose from and make the gambling feel more fun overall.
The level idea you mentioned is cool, we had a lot of fun level ideas and designs, but we were given a 3 week deadline and it was not enough time to implement everything, we actually wanted to tie the theme to hell, like calling the game Circle 4 and having Culltist enemies for the forest level.
End of note here, haha and thanks for playing and reviewing our game!
