It is very complete and has a novel mechanic (moving the sword with your mouse). Those 2 things are what gamejams are all about: finishing something, and being just a little bit experimental. I do think the game is a little unbalanced. The first 2 waves are really easy, but you don't make enough money to buy any upgrades. I got enough money in the middle of the 3rd wave to buy the damage upgrade (and really needed it!) but I didn't have a second to breathe and purchase it. I died right after that.
