It plays and looks really good. I liked the progression idea of spending health to get a higher max health, and then some upgrades costing more health than your current max so you need to upgrade etc.\n\nI think adding more bass to the sound effects would really give the bullets more punch!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Pepijn","author_uid":"1144584","time":"2019-04-29T23:10:57Z","epoch":1556579457,"modified":1556579568,"text":"@danga thx for the feedback!\noh and btw to everyone else if you want to get your game rated plz comment a link","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Codesity","author_uid":"1120245","time":"2019-04-30T12:00:07Z","epoch":1556625607,"modified":1556625607,"text":"funny game.

But this won't help beyond wave number 3. And I just couldn't get enough upgrades to survive on later waves. I think the balance is wrong for an LD entry (a game people will play once or twice before moving to a different one they need to rate), but I still liked the game a lot. The graphics are great (I love pixel art), the music fits the action, and overall impression is just great!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Akronsus","author_uid":"1151806","time":"2019-05-04T12:06:08Z","epoch":1556971568,"modified":1556971568,"text":"Managed to get until wave 60 or so, made 237 kills.

I don't know where to start :) The pixel art is amazing. The epic moment of slow motion when killing an enemy is so incredibly satisfying. I might steal this idea for the next ludum dare :P The Music was great and  and fitted the action gameplay perfectly. The upgrades gave you a feeling of becoming more and more powerfull over time. Especially the upgrades to your firerate were cool. You did an unbelievably great job balancing the upgrade effect, their prices and the strength of the enemies and waves. Sometimes the enemies got stuck in narrow corridors which made it easier to kill them. I don't think this was intended but I liked it because it made you feel even more powerful. Playing this game made me want to checkout your games from the last few ludumdare gamejams but it seems like this is your first time participating, which makes it even more impressive!\nWe also created a top-down action shooter and would be really happy, if you tried it and told us what you think about it :)","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Joror","author_uid":"1000362","time":"2019-05-04T12:32:55Z","epoch":1556973175,"modified":1556973175,"text":"Really fun game! The dodge & run tank tactics really got me. The tab-to-shop gave some pause & consideration space.\nI got to wave 13ish and 49 kills, when the gatling-tanks came in and cornered me :smile: \nLoved the 'kill cam' feature too, nice way to highlight a moment and give some rest, but not too long to be tedious.\n\nNice one!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"vjmunhoz","author_uid":"1144255","time":"2019-05-04T13:55:24Z","epoch":1556978124,"modified":1556978124,"text":"I love the slowmotion when an enemy dies.
