The mech idea was AWESOME seriously although I could spam it all the way making it kinda easy toward the end.

You guys had the feel down pat, on top of an absolutely pumping soundtrack and incredible pixel art.\r\rThe rhythm of switching from melee use to special weapons (and timing mech transformation!) and the feedback of blowing up enemies was absolutely perfect. I have to admit I actually got goosebumps every time I laserbladed some enemy mechs.\r\rOnly comment I had was the connected worlds theme was a bit of a stretch, but hell, this is a 5* entry.

I guess the feel of progression just isn't there, since you're confined to a certain area and the enemies spawn in waves, which are indeed always a bit harder, but still pretty similar to the last wave.
