After playing the game for a little and getting to wave... 56392?!?! My final opinions on this game are:

The concept and idea for this game is actually really cool! Destroying robots with souls and using these souls to revive the dead to help you sounds like a very cool game idea and you should definitely keep expanding on it, i would love to see where it ends up! I will say however that this version of the game is really repetitive and doesn't offer much content, and i might just be dumb but i don't really see where the theme applies here, what's the top you're reaching exactly? I also like the pixel art you've added, it's simple but it gets the job done and hey, as long as no ai is involved then anything will be good to me! I don't have much to say about the audio, it's alright!

Overall this is a really good foundation for an awesome future game and you should definitely keep working on it once this is over, I would love to see where it goes! But it feels a little unrelated to the theme and it lacks content those are honestly the biggest down from this submission. Great job however and best of luck!


p.s there's some visual bugs i've encountered like skeletons randomly becoming invisible or replaying their spawn animation and i don't think the wave counter works as intended, keep those in mind!

Thanks, yeah there's definitely bugs with the wave incrimenter and I think the z order for the map hiding NPCs that popped up when I was rushing last minute. Admittedly, I had a slightly different concept in mind with a very different mechanic, but I kind of forced myself into having to change it up last minute.
Also, I figured it might not be apparent that the "to the top" theme was supposed to be shown from the skeletons "resurfacing" out of their graves to the surface, which I could have elaborated on lol 
I should be dropping the first update right after the jam's over and I should have the "real" game loop and mechanic ready by then, if you're interested to check it out!
