EX-TERMINATOR by steel465
You're tasked by your employers to clean out a rather decrepit area reported to have a bug infestation. Unfortunately, the area seems to have reeeaally bad bugs. Bugs who have mutated the urge to become hostile toward humans. But- you need your paycheck, so in you go!!

Had fun, at first my tab was muted so I was confused why there was no sounds and thought it was lacking on that part but I'm just a dork :D
Cool submission, props for making it! Big Vampire Survivor vibe. I wonder how many upgrades there is?
Lacks some sounds
But it was fun
There was a weird bug I encountered in my second playthrough (no pun intended), in the run the swatter didn't work, the upgrade somehow unlocked the grenade. I bought it as first upgrade but could only throw grenades, further upgrading it didn't seem to do anything. But other than that it is a really nice little game.
a couple of things that i'd like to comment on:
- 2 out of 3 times my character didn't get any damage;
- 1 out of 3 times i had the grenade from the start;
- the bugs push you constantly :D
- the second bug (maybe third as well, not sure) sprite is located under your spray sprite, so it is hard to see them when they are near you;
it would be so fun to have some background music! and some sound effects for start of a new wave;
- sometimes there were so few bugs I got lonely :D
- you can push the bugs and they stop attacking you and just float somewhere...
- it would also be fun to have additional enemy types and more variations of your weapons :)
a nice entry, good cleaning technique! wish you best of luck with your games :)
