Use of the limitation
Slain Dragons drop gold coins, which can be used to purchase upgrades, including one that increases coins dropped by slain Dragons. By the end the avalanche of coins starts looking like a low resolution fluid simulation. (It goes BRRRR)

Cookies eaten
~40. Now that I'm seeing it written down, I feel an odd mixture of pride and indigestion. (They were frosted oatmeal and peanut butter cracker cookies BTW)

Interesting concept. The enemy ai sometimes would get stuck if you were right under it but maybe that was intentional. Nice work, 40 cookies eaten is def an accomplishment.

Really cool progression system. It's super addicting to play as i kept going back for just one more run lol.

Really enjoyed it. Addicting in the same way that Vampire Survivors is. Only thing that bothered me was the jump. Attack was cool to play with and progression was great. Awesome game!

Get prickled!! It was really satisfying sniping with the attack since it was so thin, and the enemies were really tiny. Felt great to hit them as they were just falling off a ledge with precision shots. Nice job!

This hit that monkey part of my brain that loves seeing numbers go up. Starts slow, but once you get some attack speed boosts and coin burst upgrades the game becomes very satisfying and challenging! I love that you can play even after you win to fully appreciate your upgrades.
