It does indeed :) at first minions spawn every 2.5s, as you buy more upgrades, you reduce that timer so that you have to wait less time before the next spawn
could you tell me more about the freeze? does it fix itself or do you need to reload the game? and are you playing on browser (if so, which?) or the downloaded version?
I've been looking into it and it seems like Firefox and Godot are not a good combo, unfortunately I don't think there's much I can do, I tried other export settings but the issue still persists, sorry :/
