The problem I saw was instead of it being a matter of throwing corpses off of the platform to make room to move around, I would just end up dying instead because there were so many of them at once. So maybe turn down the spawn rate for each wave?\n\nThe sounds fit pretty well. Some of them seem a little loud, but overall I think they add to the experience. And the mechanics are pretty smooth, I do wish it was a littler more dynamic, like being able to move while attacking? Or having some sort of dash ability?
