Game
Controls

wasdm, zqsd, or directional arrows to move.

Right click (or space) on those to absorb the monster power.
Note that a right click costs a heart!
Goal
You need to collect all three ameliorations of each special monster to complete the game:
- Spitters give you piercing bullets.
- Dogs give you movespeed.
- Big monsters give you one heart slot.
Everything else should be self-explanatory. Don't hesitate to post comment if anything is not understandable or for good or bad critic.
Have fun!

Onto the game: It's nice, but I think the artstyle needs a bit more coherency.. ssome sprites are quite minimalistic, which in itself can be nice, and some use a lot of "scattered" pixels, which feels incoherent to me.
Good gameplay,nice graphics and soundtrack
Also you hitted the fly making the enemy lifes the currency
Congrats for your entry !
Just a heads up, using someone else's music/sound effects isn't really allowed in the compo; this should probably be submitted to the jam instead.

It looks pretty interesting though; I'll definitely give it a shot if you swap it to a jam game!
* The washed-out color of the player character makes it quite hard to see him against the gray background. This might be remedied by...
* Fullscreen mode! On a high resolution monitor the window size is really small and can't be resized.
* As mentioned by others, you are meant to make *everything* by yourself for the compo, so I will deduct a point for using someone else's audio.
Still, a solid, well-polished little action game.
*edit: it doesn't seems to be possible*
