First of all important info : i’m on windows and i played the web version, i had the broken font as well so i’m not sure what’s the issue but it doesn’t seem to be linux specific, hope this helps :/
About the game itself, i managed to figure out the start button despite the broken font and i really liked it, it’s a solid top down shooter and i like the very “Giger-esque” background, paired with the ominous music it really makes you feel like you’re attacking some strange alien fortress. I dig the fact that your mech has both a gun and a melee attack,
i’d say visually it just needs a bit more flair with a few more effects and all but i totally get this isn’t a priority for a jam version cause of the work to make everything esle especially solo ^^
I’m not counting the font thing into the rating cause this is basically the type of thing you don’t really have control over.
It’s honestly a good base it already has quite some character to it, well done :)
