After you finish the game is there anything else you will be able to do such as travel around the place or infinite battle game mode because playdate has game such as Saturday edition which is really good and awesome however once you finish the game there is nothing much you can do.

Very interesting idea! Maybe there could be an infinite wave mode? Love the idea.

I just love this art style and was interested the second I saw the art on the coming soon section of the store, I'm just getting into making games myself for the playdate and this just inspires me. I'm really excited for the release day as its similar to the type of game I was wanting to make someday hopefully.

Happy to hear that! Thanks for the interest and hope you're able to make one as well!

Saw it on the playdate update. I really wanted an action game like this on playdate. Really happy to know that it exists and looks really fun! Also that the performance seems to be good, 50 FPS? I don’t remember you mentioning anything about when the game could come out or a timeline? Can you say anything about it? Thank you and eagerly waiting!!!

Glad to hear! The current target date is end of 2024.

Wow it looks great. Definitely expecting it to be a favorite of mine. Will donate or pay for it when it's ready! :)

Thank you and thanks for the interest!
