Not bad.. I imagine a creepy soundtrack and alien discovery scream sfx would add a lot though!

Ahhh, They Live! Nice idea, I like that the aliens nearly jummping in your face when you discover them ;-)

Some sort of visualization for the discovering "wave" would have been nice. Was able to get an idea of it from trial and error, but..

My virus scanner blocks the download "Generic_PAK.01". Probably false positive.

Yeah, its fine (unless my computer was infected). I'm guessing you use TrendMicro? It looks like out of the 43 scanners, only that one thinks its infected.

Yep, "cursed" by TrendMicro. Since it's my office laptop I can't deactivate it. I'll see to it on another computer.

Got it to work on Windows. It seems rather crash happy.

Sometimes the wave stopped working and usually after that the game would crash.

The idea is a nice one. Once an alien is waved they almost too fast advancing on you so you can barely react.

It's a good idea but it keeps crashing on me. :(

Yeah, the compo version crashes a lot. Especially the Windows version. I had a few problems building that version and it didn't get nearly as much testing. The Jam version for Windows might also crash quite a bit, but I haven't tested it much either, mostly just on a Mac. Next time I'll focus more on getting a working Windows build earlier on.

An interesting idea, and what I could play of it was alright, but it was frustratingly buggy and crashed before I could complete any of it.

Played the compo version on Windows.
