OK - game mechanic could do with some changes
Game looks good and sound ok - but the game mechanic ends up a quasi-selective button-mashing crank-fest. I liked the concept of this game, but reality of playing it didn't deliver.
The three things that let the game down: the special attack sometimes randomly does "misses" (WTF!), the power meter becomes empty if you overfill it (DWTF!), and if you get hit with a web, then you probably get hit by another, and another, and then die (unless you get lucky and the special attack doesn't miss) (FOUL!).
Rather that miss, the special attack should have silly attacks - like sparkle vision! Also an attack to slow down the bugs would have been nice - like wall of flowers (obviously the bugs eat their way through!). As for the power meter - if it overfills it should explode, destroying everything (including the player). At least that would be a satisfactory "loss of power" (LOL!)
As for the spiders - maybe if you get hit with a web, then all the spiders should stop firing, rush to the front of the column, and advance double time down the screen!?!
If the player had lives, then if the spiders got you while you are webbed, then they could cocoon the lizard up and hold it hostage in the next wave - if you release your previous life, then you get double firepower!! Galaga style!! (OK, so maybe you don't really need this - but I did get bored pretty quickly with only one non-upgradeable attack).
Also, to have the attacking bugs be all bugs: rather than rocks - it should have been pupae (two shots to destroy the cocoon, one the grub within!), and rather than dynamite (WTF?!) it should have been fire beetles or flame butterflies or something equally creative.
Also what's wrong with eating bits of bugs for power (as opposed to coins)? The player is a lizard after all! It's not like the game needs to protect fragile/innocent minds - it is essentially a game about SHOOTING THINGS.
PS Your medals don't work altogether or something: the first time I play I got carnaged, so only managed CHILDS PLAY. When I finally worked out a quasi-strategy, I managed to get over 60000 points, but was only awarded GETTING WARM. And now I finally managed to get over 80000 points, I only got awarded BUG BUSTER. Anyway - I still have ATTENTION SEEKER (lol!) to get, so may get SUPER LIZZARD yet!
And I didn' touch no-ones squirrel - it was all the squirrel's fault!
