Cool idea and cool take on the theme. I like the art style and how its playable on mobile.

This was very cool. Might have to play again later to try and get more upgrades and kill more stuff.

Stack the upgrade that does like -80% cd and you become a self-sufficient mob of machine-gun fireflies that can simply stand still and consume the world (and RIP to your ears if that happens to you)

not even dogs fear my firefly swarm of doom

Played for well over an hour. It's addictive.

Great implementation and congrats on finishing the game! Feels a little too similar to vampire survivor though!

Been playing this last round for literally over 6 hours and CANNOT die! I AM INVINCIBLE!!! :P I even left it playing and went off to make coffee, do dishes, bathroom breaks, and long conversations with the hubby. Love this game! Thanks for making it. Can wait to see what you do next time ;P

It’s a very hard game on mobile, the virtual joystick is in the middle of the screen, on top of the flies, so very difficult to control.
Congratulations on subirions your game in time, it’s no small feat!

Great vampire like, rescuing firefly's remind me Warcraft 3 game. That's most satisfying.

Tip:
- Increase quality of input, now it fells little awkward
- Decrease cost of upgrades in shop
- UI

I thought rats were bad and then dogs came on.
Could use a visual cue where the enemy is going to spawn before it happens, even if for a second.

Cool use of visuals and controls

I've played it for about an hour, trying to figure if there's an ending. My first couple of play throughs I had an imbalanced setup when I wouldn't die at all because I essentially had 0 cooldown on shooting (pour + happy), so I had to reload the page in order to reset it and see if there's something else. After that I've discovered meta progression (trying not to become invincible) and it became even more imbalanced :) In the end I left the game running for like 15 minutes, bullets shooting everywhere, but haven't seen any ending screen, is it in the game?
Overall I liked it quite a lot, you have a lot of nice components in that game, which make it addictive!

a very fun game! impressive for the short time! never been so scared of a praying mantis or a mouse :P gameplay was fun and addictive. getting about 0 cooldown on the bullets was pretty overpowered but felt fun, also the mice kept spawning directly on me after a while maybe adding a larger distance check for them would feel less punishing :D

The 'let it pour(?)' upgrade was fantastic. I ended up with almost no cooldown time. :smile:
I had fun! Nice one.

Cool VS like with some crimsonland elements.

This was fun to play, even if the game itself was pretty simple.

I wasn't really sure what some of the upgrades actually did at times (there was at least one ending with "cd" that I wasn't able to figure out), and I would have liked it if the boundaries were marked in some way - I definitely ran into the top one without realizing a couple of times.
