At that point, there's no motivation to switch to either shape when killing either will net the same reward.

I suggest using j k l and ; as the buttons though, so they aren't above WASD."},{"author_name":"BigBrother","author_uid":"64007","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 1:32am","epoch":1461029220,"text":"Wow!

And those explosions are great, I love the effect from blowing up the ships.\r\rThis was fun, I didn't get quite to the point where I was effectively hot-swapping weapons when I faced mixed waves, but I was doing pretty good with the basic swaps. I liked that it was a little more than I could handle with the tougher stuff.\r\rNice entry!"},{"author_name":"Khaoz_Fang","author_uid":"91082","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 2:10am","epoch":1461031500,"text":"GG,very cool 2D art"},{"author_name":"chrras","author_uid":"58408","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 9:02am","epoch":1461056220,"text":"Your game is fun, but maybe a bit same-y.
