Screenshots I wanted to added but Itch was complaining about them:

Shop:

Preview Tile:

Thanks for playing! Appreciate you giving it a shot even with the lack of tiles.

The shop is only accessible between waves, so when the "next wave timer" is ticking, you can pause to access it. The pause button is different depending on if you're playing the web browser build (Backspace) or the desktop build (Escape).

Escape feels like a more natural pause button, BUT when you hit the button on web it can affect things like full screen and mouse mode, so I decided to make backspace a substitute on web.

Once you pause you'll be able to click on whichever items you want to buy (If you have enough gold for it).

Once you buy some tiles, you can un-pause, and place them in any grid cells that are empty. You'll know you can place a tile by it's preview mesh (Just a white dither silhouette). Left click to place down a tile:

Thanks for the feedback! Believe it or not, turning while charging did cross my mind a few times, so might be worth exploring that along with the other things listed. 

I also found myself using the same three actions + the uppercut(Duck -> Swing) since that keeps enemies in the air for longer, and lets me charge up my bat at the end of a combo, but future enemy types will motivate the use of the hop stance as well.

I will be looking to commission for music as well. Figured since this was an early build I'd just focus on getting sound effects in at the very least.

Left click once you've got at least one mark.

Some restaurant goers did not get their ice cream, but I'll blame the chefs trying to kill me. Nice game! 

If I could give a 6 in presentation I would! Felt like I was playing a game from the Saturn/Ps1 days. Game play was also really fun, and cool. Had hard time with the jet mode, so stuck on mech mode most of the time. Great job!

Glad you liked it! I definitely got lost in the sauce of my own mechanics and ruleset lol. Was able to get in a playtest or two before submission, so was able to make some final tweaks, but definitely could use more polish and spaced out levels.

Thanks! The robot stage was the very last stage made for the game, so it could definitely use some more polish.

Thanks for playing! Glad you liked the concept. Definitely could expand upon it more, and work on making things a lot more clear.

Great game! My maneuvering was horrendous, but was able to find some sweet spots within the patterns!

Amazing art and fun weapons, nothing more to say other than great job!

Game looks great! Favorite mini game was the shmup.

Nice putting two game modes into one! I think the big mode one was my preferred mode. Interesting way to handle playing as a giant character, even though I squashed more people than I had hoped...

Thanks for playing, and appreciate the insight! Some more basic levels probably would help in getting the fundamentals down, but glad you had fun nonetheless.

Thanks for playing! Glad you were able to get the hang of it, and defeat the robot. 3D environments (Even in a 2D perspective) aren't my strongest suit, so I'll keep on practicing them.

Really like the look of the game, and the concept is pretty interesting. I think the player's attack being the thing that moves them is pretty cool. With the size of the enemies being so big, I found myself not having a lot of options in terms of moving around them. Best time I got was a 39.

Lost 3 bags of money, gotta keep your mind on your paper in this game. Was overall a fun strategy game. One thing would be maybe having markers on the players to know what id they are on the map.

Art is great! Gameplay fun and super simple. Thought I was doin nice, until the big blob killed all my little bots, but eventually figured out how to fight them!

Love the low poly pixel render look. Also crazy how much more fun you can make a game with a good grappling hook! Didn't end up switching modes too often, my favorite mode was red.

Game looks amazing, read the title "Mecha Mode", and was not disappointed!! Super satisfying having a rapid fire weapon, and mowing down hordes of goblins. Not sure how collision normally is handled in horde games, but did find myself getting stuck between the walls and goblins a lot, but could be bad skill on my end tho. Great game!!!

Thanks! That's super encouraging, and I hope to do something with this, but probably not too soon!

Yeah keep an eye out 2033, base story should be out by then.
