Nice game! Pretty solid mechanics, art and audio. I think that the game gets a bit too difficult in night 5. The gameplay was fun though, and I tried multiple times to beat the game because of it. Good job!

cool gameplay here :) the upgrades were helpful, but I feel like the difficulty curve went up pretty fast in the end - I couldnt make it to night 6

I made it to Night 7! But only by building a fortress of trees in night 1 to carry me through night 5 and 6.

At one point, it appeared as though enemies were able to get inside the fire/muzzle radius of the weapon, and so I couldn't shoot them. I had to use the power-ups. Some more information around those would be good to see, too. +1 that the tiny window on launch is weird, too.

Nice pixel art! Pretty fun gameplay, too. I look forward to seeing more.

I like it! Small and to the point, very easy to get into, but still a fun challenge. I only managed night 5.

  • The game launches as a tiny window that's very hard to see on a high-res monitor, but full-screening is easy enough of course
  • Variation of characters and weapons was fun
  • Pixel art is great, and music/sound effects were good too
  • Play area felt a bit unfair - often enemies were inside the trees so I could not hit them. Sometimes got stuck when I placed a tree on the edge
  • Great use of wildcards

Couldn’t make it past night 5, despite a good 4 or 5 attempts. I’m definitely not especially good at these sorts of games though.

Really enjoyed the art and music. Great job!

Made it only to night 5. I enjoyed the pixel art. The Level up would have greatly benefitted from power upgrade path choices imo.
