I bugged outside of the map at level 9 and can't get inside the box again... The game is pretty cool visually and on the first few levels, but then the performance and the quality drop. Hope you'll find your way around it because I think the idea is fun and the atmosphere you've created is nice :]
I played your game, and there are a few points that need to be addressed:
First, the good points:
πThe enemies are very cool.
πThe main square is also nice.
πThe power-ups are great.
πThe music fits well with the game.
Now, the bad points:
πYour game has a big optimization problem. I'm currently on level 7, and I see a slideshow in front of me. I think you're not removing the old enemies when moving to the next level, which is a shame because your game has potential. But if you're creating a game with loops and you don't think about optimizing it, that's problematic.
πThere's also the rhythm of the game. I feel like the game doesn't speed up. It doesn't get harder; the only difficulty is the number of enemies. But because the game lags...
πThe music is nice, but it doesn't play continuously. At some point, you canβt hear the music anymore, which takes away from the game's value. Also, why is there no sound? The game doesn't have enough sound effects. Sound effects are a crucial part of the game. Ideally, a game should be enjoyable even without music.
πFinally, the theme is not really followed unless your goal is for the game to become worse over time, which is where things go wrong.
I'm telling you all this because your game is really good, and everything related to the enemies and the environment is great. The idea of having levels with a loop also works well, but there are a few things that ruin the experience. Try fixing these little things, and you'll see the game will be much more enjoyable to play.

You
can play my game and rate it if you want ( after what i said, i'm not really sure that you want to rate my game π)
Thank you for the in depth review! I agree that it could be optimized a bit more but I just was not sure if it was the game or my computer. I also agree that it could be a bit harder. I don't know why you had a problem with the sound effects because the game does have some sound effects for shooting and power ups. The music is set to loop so that is either a bug or a problem with the engine. I would love to rate your game but I can't really download games. Otherwise, great review and thank you! I will definitely take care of some points you mentioned in the future.

For the sound effect i thinks that a bug is created when the game start to really lag.
