Beautiful pixel art and animations! Controls felt a little strange (enter to fire?!) but they were easy enough to grasp, and then it was all about the waves and zapping and zapping. Have to admit I didn't last very long, it's pretty unforgiving! But I tried and tried again because it was so nice to look at :)

Seriously such a great game! Charge Guardian reminds me of risk of rain how there are waves of enemies being summoned to battle. the robot was fun to control and i found fighting easy. But after a few waves the difficulty was too much. would have loved some power ups to assist in the fight. Thanks for making this.

⚡Spark 🔋 Rush⚡Really cool game. I really liked the graphics, art style and the different types of enemies. One thing I would for sure improve is the difficulty. Make sure the first few levels are pretty easy, so that players can explore and learn the mechanics. Keep in mind that you do a lot of play testing when developing the game and you get pretty good in it. If it feels too easy for you it is usually right for new players.
Congratulations to this nice game. Had fun playing it!

Power-Up AdventureNice art and animations! The mixed variety of enemies and attack patterns were interesting. I like how the enemy corpse melts and stays on the ground without covering other UI elements.

Battery MageSolid entry! I think the way you worked in the theme is top-notch! While I liked the back-and-white aesthetic, I thought some of the enemy designs were pretty cool and I would have liked to see them in more detail. Since it was kind of challenging maybe it would be a good idea to break it up into escalating levels. Great work!
