Great game ! Hope you expand on it
LOL I was not able to pass wave 4 only.
The boss may have had 1000hp... There is definitely a massive difficulty increase going into the boss battle. I’ve only beaten the game once and I think you need GTG Gun Mk.X with battery dump and cell to get an infinite damage generator. I also had shield dump and a second battery dump. Also Zap Canon is a viable weapon.
A masterpiece! I really liked the pixel art and the assets. The game was really fun, I couldn't get past the fourth level. Those Watch-shaped ships were really giving a hard time. But yeah, It was truly fun. Rated the game as well :)
Thank you so much!! You should have seen how quickly I was pumping out those pixel art assets in photoshop! There is definitely a real learning curve to knowing what all the enemies exactly do and which laser blasts you can take.
I really enjoyed this game :) it reminded me of a game i published recently called Asteroid Destroyer i loved the menu after round but it took me a second to realize what the ui on the right was for
Thank you for playing it!! I’ll have to check out your game. Yes I wanted to add some sort of tutorial system that taught how all the mechanics worked but I ran out of time. Oh well
