Good basis, difficulty could stand to ramp up a little earlier though.

Thanks, I didn't want to kill players too soon, also there are couple of stages of enemies' involvement, rushing it out wouldn't show it properly.

Need more feedback on what is happening. I didnt know I had other guns.
I was clicking outside the screen lots of times.

Besides this the game is a great small jam game.

I had whole 15 minutes to polish, please understando! But yes, pressing Escape shows your weapons, but not the buttons to select them. I ignored it as most people are used to weapon switching from FPS games but deep down I knew it's a weak excuse. Still, restarting after death was still being debugged 15 mins before submission and Escape menu wasn't there two hours prior. If I had one more day I'd add more enemy variety and one more QTE, definitely wouldn't care for resizing/fitting the game to fullscreen. For that I need a week lol.

Thanks for kind words! I guess I'll polish the game a little still.

I think that is easy on love2d. From what I remember it is just a resize = 1 on the love.config or something like that. Not sure if the mouse position follow that config, though.
