You need to work on the difficulty curve. By the end, I could just stand in the center while my weapon dealt with the enemies for me.

However, I have to say this is probably the best game I've seen here so far! I really enjoyed the gameplay of chasing down those little thieves. On top of that, it has a pleasant visual style and fantastic music!

Cool game! Would love to see more usage of gold. I didnt have any money issues, game balance was good at the beginning, later on I could just stand in the middle. The aura upgrade was disappointing as it only collects the oil that is stolen. The aura would need to be bigger, so I didnt invest into it more.

Nice job making a fun survivors-like game! I really liked the variety in weapons but it feels like the player out scales the enemy very fast. You get so many levels while the enemies don't get that much stronger so it is pretty trivial to win once you get the ball rolling.

However, moving all the enemies felt very satisfying and I had a lot of fun with the game. Nice job!

Woooo this was fun! I made it all the way through. Would definitely love to see more upgrades/balance/etc as the other reviewers have mentioned , but as a jam entry this ruled. I haven't played an auto-shooter / tower defense combo before. I enjoyed it a lot!

I really enjoyed playing this, sadly I lost with 10 seconds to spare. One thing I would recommend is making the collector aura fainter and less flashy, it becomes a bit of an eyesore and makes it hard to see when it's filling a lot of the screen.

Had me sweatin in the first half and by the end i was unstoppable and the screen was full of explosions which was pretty cool.
