I had a good deal of fun playing this game. I like that the goal and controls are displayed before you play and the music adds a nice touch. My only issue is not being able to see the house or being notified when the monsters get too close. The first five minutes confused me because I was losing and not understanding why then I realized that the house was out of frame. All in all, it was a fun game and I had a lot of fun keeping those monsters out of my house!

This is a really good game! I enjoyed the art but I feel like it was a bit to easy to stand in the center of the house and just fire in both direction so you cant die. maybe some kind of cooldown or ammo on the gun would help
Neat little game, maybe increase the difficulty by the killcount? The monsters health is based upon how many kills you have?
Cute visuals, nice music. The idea is ok, but I would have worked a little bit more on the design. For example, jumping is useless, why should you jump? Also moving far from the house has no advantage, you just can't see monsters coming from the other side. I suggest you to think a little bit more about the game mechanics. Maybe some monsters variety could be helpful, to exploit better what you developed.
However, everything you did works nicely and game is solid, so nice job!
Very cute game. I really like the art. The camera does seem to jerk a bit downward with each shot which can be a bit nauseating but otherwise, it's a good time. Great work! Keep it up!
