Super fun! I like the idea of the game, it's really satisfying to watch a huge chain reaction occur. I like the upgrades a lot, tho they seem to be priced really high unless you do level 45 to get a ton of money. Level 45 is what I was waiting to happen the entire game, it's so fun to watch a huge chain reaction happen. Great work!

I'm glad you liked it.
This is my first time trying something with a kind of semi-procedural level generation. I ended up cutting it off at level 44 and added one big final level by hand, featuring a boss with 99 HP.
Honestly, developing the game was very much in the spirit of pure chaos :D. I completely underestimated the scope and so many aspects of the process. I rushed the pacing and difficulty balance on the last day, which is why it might feel a bit all over the place.
Thank you for playing :)
I agree, the big chain reactions feel the most satisfying imo
In hindsight, I should’ve taken a different direction with progression. It turns out it’s way more fun to just stick with level 45 after grabbing a few damage upgrades, and then slowly work your way through it, triggering bigger and bigger chain reactions with each attempt.
It becomes more of a loop where you replay the same level, steadily improving your stats and pushing a little further each time, kind of like in Learn to Fly or Burrito Bison.
I watched your vod where you played my game and it looks like you had fun, followed you :D
