I liked the variety of different guns and monsters. And it's always fun to shoot bad guys!\n\nI think it would be even better if different guns shot at different enemies, closest to the gun and not to the player character.\n\nAlso, there's not enough visual feedback when player or enemy was damaged. For example, they could flash red or white. Right now there is a sound effect and knockback, but I think you could improve the game here.\n\nAnother thing I noticed is enemies just appear out of nowhere, they could come out of doors or portals so the player prepared for their appearance and it wouldn't look so weird. If you want the enemies just spawn in, you can add a short spawning animation, like an interdimensional portal opening or something like that.\n\nAnd I think there is an issue with game balance. Defensive stats are outclassed by just more guns, more damage, more knockback. You can just stand at one spot and watch everybody around die, so there's no point in lifesteal or regen right now.\n\nStill, I really enjoyed playing and managed to collect 5 different guns and beat the boss!","format":"md","likes":3,"spam":"N"},{"id":1180468,"author_name":"Kitira","author_uid":"kitira","epoch":1760172438,"text":"@accardo , @madcat92 , @xahon , @thierry , @rentem , @evgenii-petrov , @raysplaceinspace , @naru , @woona thank you all for playing and for your feedback! :) \n\n@accardo , yes, you're right, the balancing isn't well-adjusted yet. However, there is a small indicator of how difficult the waves will be \u2014 bigger treasures are guarded by more and stronger enemies :) Nevertheless, you're absolutely right that the balancing needs fine-tuning.\n\n@thierry , yes, the balancing is indeed not quite right. Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time for fine-tuning... \n\n@rentem , haha... That's a great idea! With enough upgrades it could definitely be fun :) \n\n@raysplaceinspace , oh yes, you probably chose the wrong chest. Not all chests are doable at the beginning, so you have to choose them carefully until you have enough weapons and good stats :)\n\n@woona , wow, thank you for your detailed feedback! And yes, you're absolutely right, all of that was on our to-do list, but then we ran out of time... But I'm glad that you played through to the boss anyway :)\n\n\n","format":"md","likes":2,"spam":"N"},{"id":1181200,"author_name":"LDJam user 268934","author_uid":"268934","epoch":1760207298,"text":"20 stats a lot of guns you made a lot of stuff.
