Very nice game for a first game jam. I think it could be better with some more types of enemies

Sound programming effort but I'd say the game falls short of being compelling for a few reasons:

-The enemies start spawning in a tad too fast
-They spawn randomly (sometimes right next to the player)
-They shoot too often.

So rather than skill, one needs luck.

A few ideas:

-Have a spawn animation/icon in the spawn position for a few seconds before the enemy appears
-A few different enemy types, so that not every guy has the fast burst shot
-Slowmo ability

Tried playing the game; unfortunately when I run it, I get a flashing grey screen and cannot continue. Running Window 7 64-bit.
