The music is great and the upgrades are fun. A suggestion is to balance the wave system because for a bit I could not get past the flying wave. Once I did get past the wave it was satisfying to be upgraded. The gun sound did not interrupt gameplay. Great Job :D

Fun game, but the difficulty curve was a bit steep. The variety of enemys was a good way to change up the gameplay over time. The only thing I would say is to change/add the shop button, as I found using 'B' was a bit annoying and would have preferred Q/E/Esc. Adding a few small details such as an effect for the piercing upgrade and enemy deaths would be a good way to start for a post-jam version. Overall, quite an enjoyable, but challenging game.
Fun game! incremental upgrades make the difficulty ramping well! good job ;)
Really enjoyable game. Gave it a few tries but couldn't defeat the giant enemies though. Having the game pause while buying upgrade is a nice touch.
Seeing the family at the window made me think that they were the health (house gets attacked and you lose a family member until you're the last one kind of thing).
The only thing the game is really missing is just some balancing on the enemies
Realy cool game. I liked how you had to strategize on how you purchased your upgrades. I tried realy hard to beat it but once you get to the realy big version of the enemies I keep dying. So I sadly was not able to complete it. but besides the difficulty very fun little game
I really like this! Definitely tough but there's a satisfying sense of progression with the upgrades and I like the fact that it takes multiple shots to kill the enemies, you really have to play strategically. Nice work :)
Pretty decent game! Graphics are fine, but could definitely use some effects like screen shake or lighting. Loved the getting stronger mechanic and buying stuff from the shop.
I think the biggest issue is that it's extremely tough. The flying enemies are way too fast and there's too little knockback, so they can kill you immediately even with a bunch of upgrades.
The game is very nice but you could have added a little bit of effects. The game gets very hard from the second wave .
I liked the sense of progression quite alot and it felt satisfying getting stronger and stronger, although it is quite unforgiving as you die as soon as you are hit by an enemy (especially when the flying ones come in, but maybe thats just me being bad at the game lol)
