I can manage to get a 100 on one item and not on all of the other items. Too much key pressing for m.e. sorry. Hopefully some other hero can finish the quest.

I felt like right at the start I had enough mana to sustain myself indefinitely so the coins (score?) was just seeing how long I wanted to go rather than how long you could survive, so an increasing difficulty could be good, maybe an increase in the spawn rate as time progresses. In the case of increasing difficulty, there could be room to allow the player to increase his own power with mana, maybe summon upgrades like damage, attack speed, or even multi-shot.

I was trying to think of a different spin. Alas, I didn't have as much time as I hoped, but it was still fun!
