Ok i gave to confess i didn’t notice where the radio was, i picked up like 22 wood when i realized i had to come back lol, obviously this type of game is very challenging for a short jam but somehow running the errands made sense.

You got the mechanics in there, now the step to make a game loop comes, this game will serve you well as a base for several more. Just have in mind to present challenges to the player, for example the press space on the right moment mechanic is lacking the right moment part, i can spam spacebar all the time and will get resources regardless.
Fun concept! Small suggestion, maybe they key to select improvement at the end of a round could be a different key than the shoot key, many times i was trying to shoot ( i spammed enter since they shooting speed was a bit low) and i accidentally “choose” and upgrade without even getting a change to choose, also not sure it was there and never got it but a firing rate or firing speed upgrade would have been nice.
Hey thanks for the feedback, I’ll explore giving time to the hints in order to balance the difficulty in the future! If it makes you feel better i don’t think you got lucky but maybe you have more experience with Puzzle games, my testers were fairly new to the genre and it took them quite some time. I didn’t wanted each puzzle to be super long but i did wanted to make more levels, and that’s when time got me!
I like the game idea and aesthetics, but i felt like i was just spamming spacebar until level changed often missing out on the text it came with, maybe some limitation on the frequency a player can switch the light, or another mechanic that rewards careful timing instead of spamming would make it more enjoyable, at least for me. Overall it was fun.
Fun game, couldn't make it past level 3, maybe my skill is too low, but i feel everything is too big and difficult to navigate, i liked the portal idea, the FPS ability sounds like a good deal but i feel it should also slow attack rate, because once the ability wears out all the things come at you too close to each other.
