This is my kind of game, it is very cool I would like to see it grow and get more polished in the future!

Obrigada pelo seu comentário! O jogo tem alguns problemas de balanceamento mesmo que não conseguimos focar por causa da programação. Na verdade o jogo foi feito por 4 pessoas (tem os créditos dentro do jogo) com 2 programadores que não estavam tão familiarizados com a Unity, que foi o programa que utilizamos para fazer o jogo, então isso dificultou um pouco a progressão rápida para finalizar o game. Novamente, obrigada pelo feedback, é muito importante!

We actually need to work more on balancing, but as we left that for last we ended up running out of time. Really, the waves would appear every 15 minutes, but it was a balancing error. Thank you for your comment!!
Thank you for your feedback! There's really a lack of balance in the game that we weren't able to delve into much further due to limited time and poor organization. The text at the beginning, in addition to being a tutorial, is an introduction to the story that would happen when the game was paused, but due to some programming problem the game continued running along with the introduction. We tried to add more weapons as the game ran, but there was no time. Again, thank you for your comment!
Thanks for the feedback! The game actually had some problems due to the timing, such as the introduction of the story where the game was supposed to be paused while it was going on. We tried to think of a more conceptual game in relation to the theme, to differentiate it from other games. Again, thank you for your comment.

Hey! Firstly, thank you for the feedback! Could you please clarify what you meant by "I like how the upgrades are themed around what color light you pick up, though it ends up pretty irrelevant since the light colors are random anyway."? I am back working on the game after a (much needed) hiatus and would like to understand what exactly makes it irrelevant, so I can improve it. Thanks!
I meant that in a normal survivors-like, what upgrades are available to you are randomized when you level up, and in this game they're instead determined by what color lights you've picked up. However, what color light is dropped by enemies is still random, thus upgrades are still randomized, just when they get randomized is moved from "when player levels up" to "when enemy dies".
It's not technically the same since you could avoid picking up colors of light you don't want in your upgrade pool, but it is both difficult to pick up XP you want while avoiding XP you don't and also detrimental, since upgrading quicker is just better than cherry-picking upgrades.
I'd thought it'd be cool if there was a way to better specify what color light gets dropped by enemies, but thinking about it now, I can't really come up with a way that wouldn't be more clunky than it's worth (such as them changing color over time, interacting with your center crystal sets what color is dropped, or color getting determined by the enemy's distance from player upon death). Additionally, a big draw for games like this is choosing from options you wouldn't normally pick, forcing you out of your comfort build and adapting into something new.
I hope this overly verbose way of saying "ignore me, I don't know what I'm talking about" was at least insightful, if probably not helpful, and good luck with the project!
Ooh, I see. It's true that, since there's pretty much no way of controlling which color XP you get, it ends up irrelevant. I'll maybe try and think of a way to implement that, if I can, haha. Even if not, I still hope this is an interesting twist on the usual survivors formula and adds to the lore of the game. Thank you!!
