I like the idea of Space Invaders with upgrades, but the upgrades felt a bit slow to unlock. After 3 games, I only had enough to get a marginally faster bullet. The fun content like weapons should be unlocked much faster for a jam game.

Yeah, balance was definitely the hardest nail for me to hammer down - there's never enough time, and I should have seriously done some self-inspection with respect to my own skill levels before I decided to resurrect space invaders (read: oh my god am I bad at traditional space invaders) - I kept flipping and flopping on the ramp up of invader difficulty and the pacing of weapon unlocks
