Im in the early stages of development on this small arcade style game im making and i would like to hear if its something you would play. You play as some red dude with a bow and you can move to 3 rows with A and D, middle, left and right, your bow automatically fires every second and monsters slowly come from the opposite side of the screen in one of the three rows making there way to the other side of the screen, if they touch you or get to the other side of the screen, you lose a heart but if one of your arrows hits them, they die, you have 3 hearts in total and if you lose them all you lose the game, the monsters start spawning faster and faster as the game progresses (much like an arcade game), every time you kill a monster your score goes up and if your score is higher than your past score, it becomes you high score. Does this sound fun? I only have about 3 sprites completed and i only have the character movement down so far but i wanna hear peoples opinions before i invest like a week into making it. 

Your endless-runner with shooting mechanic game could be a good casual game for some people, although it would probably find more players on mobile than on desktop. No-code gamedev software like Hyperpad could easily recreate this for mobile and tablet platforms.

Thats actually what i do want to do but sadly im broke so i cant pay the 25$ fee to upload it on android playstore

I would definitly play the game!

Glad to hear!

Does this sound fun?

It does sounds fun but at the same time, it sounds like automatic version of shooter defense game.

If you're aiming to create simple game, then it's good enough. But if you want more than that, you'd need to expand the concept further.

i am actually aiming to create a simple game that i dont have to pour much time into, i think i might add some sort of power-ups though now that i think about it..

I made a health system, a basic enemy ai that spawns in one of three rows and moves forward, auto shooting and some animations. tell me what you guys think
