Super quick and fun game. More powerups could be added and I guess that artwork needs some updates as well.
Overall good gameloop and the theme is there. Good job!.

I like this ".io" vibes and music, but seems unbalanced a bit. With the same skill of mine I get very broad score range and survive till the wave 2-3 even if I don't miss a shot. Need some improvements, but feels good!
Well done!

p.s. 15'640 is my best event with ~4-5 consequtive "attack speed down"

Although the game is quite simple, I found it quite enjoyable. It reminds me of my days of kiting entire hordes of enemies around in WoW and then mowing them down all at once when they are all grouped up! The horde gets overwhelming FAST if you let them catch up to you, but you also have a lot of control in making sure that doesn't happen. Great job overall!

Super fast game, I think I never managed to survive longer than a few seconds. Super cool music and atmosphere, really nice!
