I love the art and the gameplay. My favorite game in this jam so far.

Developer

I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the game! I hope to expand on the concept in a future project. Thanks for playing!

Really cute and cool idea. Would love a score counter.

Developer

Thanks for playing the game! And yes, a score counter is a great idea! I was thinking of adding an endless mode where the player could keep fighting ever increasing hordes of enemies to try for a high score. Now that the basic gameplay is set, it should be pretty easy to make. Thanks for the feedback!

I wanted to return some good feedback but I'm not very good at this so.

The cute pixel art style looks nice.

Funny dialogue could be better if I had more time to read or be able to stop and read.

Maybe It has a bit of a problem that an enemy can spawn on top of you but It's no big deal

Thanks for the feedback! It's funny, my son said the same thing about the dialog. If I take some time to update the game, I'll be sure to implement a system to allows the player to control when the dialog moves forward. And yeah, I noticed that same problem with the enemy spawning. I think I should change the script that spawns the enemies to check for the player's position, which will be a challenge, but I agree that it would be much better. I appreciate you taking the time to play the game! Thanks again!
