It might be better if the counter that displays the number of enemies you have to defeat was closer to the battle window. It is kind of in a location where it is hard to see.
Good job and look forward to playing more of your games!
It's weird, but not bad, that's what I'm saying.
I also like the spotlight effect that happens during combat! The space invaders mechanic is not fun in the traditional videogame sense, BUT I think it makes for a weird/cool narrative device.
Switching to combat into an isolated part of the original map is a neat idea.
If you could figure out a way to make the terrain affect the battle once it starts somehow... Maybe a secondary enemy type that pathfinds its way to the frog? Stuff like that.
You gotta keep working on this, I think it could result in something really good and unique!
The basic idea looks nice. It probably was a great idea to make the battle a shooter. This could get interesting if you manage to make an strategic connection between those parts.
