Not sure how to make it to the end of the level but I really like the interpretation of the theme! Could use like a simple text to explain the shooting, since it took me a minute to figure that out lol.

thanks. Oh sure, we was must to write a management tutorial somewhere. Regarding the complexity of the game - yes, we didn't manage to adjust the difficulty of the game well :/

thanks for responding

The idea to spawn enemies in the dark areas is cool. You can also add spawning in the shadows or behind the buildings.

I think you need to put somewhere that you can shoot with LMB. It is not stated anywhere and not obvious. Also you can shoot only in the dark area, where it is hard to see enemies. I'm not sure if health is regenerated, but it is really hard to catch up if you ever want to look back to figure out if there are still enemies behind.

thanks for the idea, maybe we will implement it in the future. Oh sure, we was must to write a management tutorial somewhere. Regarding the complexity of the game - yes, we tried to create a game that was not too simple and not too difficult, but it did not work out, thank you for playing and for such a detailed response

No matter what I did, the progress bar depleted and I kept dying, I couldn't finish the game. Liked the implementation of the theme though!

we tried to make the game not too easy and not too hard, but it doesn't seem to work ;( , 

thanks for playing this!
