Very solid game. But I think it slightly unbalanced:
-- I understand why enemies move through walls, but with their speed it's hard to counter them, especially the boss. Maybe walls should slow down enemies?
-- I think signal should knock down already unshielded enemies at least for a small time window.
-- Not a big issue, but I wish to have some kind of laser sight maybe for better aim.

Nice top down shooting game. I wish the main gun could kill enemies without requiring weakening signal and the signal stunned enemies instead.

Did it! Nice game!! Impressive compo submission for sure!


Gameplay wise, when I play, I felt like wanting something like an area attack because I thought it was interesting how the shots don't damage the enemies but attact them, and signal shot in an area. But without any area attack upgrade, it was unwise to do so because I could only shoot one at a time anyways.
