Had lots of fun with it. The graphics are simple, but I liked it a lot. Sound is fitting, and seems like a solid game. Good job!
Windows 10 might be the issue here?
- Changing shape is not enough to make monsters different from bonus. I often make mistakes. Maybe choose a different color for bonus or if you want to keep black&white style just make bonus way bigger.
- You dont have to add another key for shoot if your game need mouse and left clic is unused.
- Draw a simple grid or anything giving the player the feeling of moving. At first I was looking for a key to move forward because I didnt understood I was already moving.
Absolutely love the bullet charing mechanic on the train cars, brilliant. And the different delay in each slot makes it very satisfying to shoot.
Excellent job.
Oh well.
Btw, installing .NET 4.5.2 fixed the crash at startup for me.

Shame the graphics weren't top-down city-scape with cowboys or something, that would have made it a lot more entertaining.
The concept was kinda fun and it sorta follows the 2 button controls (except having 3 buttons and a mouse) and follows the growing theme so the only low vote this gets is on graphics. :)
