How does your game bring our theme, The Error is the Feature, to life?
The player shoots lasers to kill the monsters but the lasers disappear randomly when we fire. They don't disappear but are hidden behind the background. So sometimes the lasers don't hit the monsters. They are supposed to be killed with a single laser but because of the error it takes multiple hits, so a weak monster seems like strong one.

Did you include a fake publisher splash screen at the start of your game?

No

Did you use the Audius API in your game?

No

Not bad for a 3 day game jam! I really enjoyed the angle you took with making the lasers disappear and hide behind the background. I did feel that the mouse control for player movement was a bit quick, and a couple times I died, because I wasn't prepared for a new wave to spawn, so I was at the top of the level when they did. An indicator for when a new wave would appear would have helped quite a bit!

Overall, I can appreciate this submission and I think you did great for a 3 day jam. Thank you for the game!

Thanks for the feedback. This is my first time making a mini game so I know it needs a lot of improvements. I'll keep your feedback in mind for the future.
