For one side it's total ludum dare candy, but on the other side it's SUPER FUN.\r<br\/>- It follows the #1 Roguelike rule IMO: &quot;Hard, but if you die, it's your faul.&quot;\r<br\/>- Marvelously color-coded. You always know who is who and what is what.\r<br\/>- TIMING. F*cking, timing. Generous pauses, upgrades and time to breath and take a cup of water between raging waves of spiders.\r<br\/>- Controls are absolutely responsive. I know what i did and why i did it.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Above all, it's FUN. FUN DO YA HEAR ME. I would absolutelly pay for a longer \/ multiple-staged \/ co-op version of this game on Steam. It feels absolutely badass to shoot while digging and throwing resources at the camel\r<br\/>\r<br\/>For me, mate, you win. Big time.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>To be fair, my critique:\r<br\/>- The intervals should be more spaced: getting inside one of those stations should A) Clear the enemies B) Enemy spawning should cease as soon as the station appears in scene.\r<br\/>- While inside the stations your life should be displayed. Sometimes i was unsure of how many hearts i had. It would be good to know how much i've upgraded other stats as well.\r<br\/>- There should be an alternative way to gather the resources. Example: Keeping &quot;C&quot; Pressed while close to the camel would transfer resources, two points\/ second. Throwing  should be a faster, but alternative way (more risky).\r<br\/>- I believe more enemies would add a lot to the gameplay. That considered, i believe player and enemies should have different colors.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Kudos mate.
