Fun....But....read before buying

With small tweaks this game will do great. 1. Gun cooldown will ruin your experience around the 7th or 8th wave. You simple can't kill anything fast enough. Regardless of what upgrades you get. I haven't made it past wave 9 or 10. There's to many enemies, not enough dmg and the gun CD time will make you lose. Every time. 2. Turrets....idk if it's just me but not being able to toss my turrets even just a few feet away is crazy annoying. 3. Gun swapping. I get it. 1 Gun that can transform into others is cool.....but when you couple the time it takes to transform from one mode to the next AND super long cooldowns AND low damage.....its almost not worth it to switch. Having your sword on your hip or shotgun over the shoulder is infinitely a better idea. 4. Tracking/accuracy seems SUPER OFF. I get there's simulated spray so not all your bullets fly straight but there's virtually NO REASON AT ALL to aim down sights. ESPECIALLY with the sniper. Your best bet is do a random shot and hope it hits. And adjust accordingly. Sniper shot if anything should be the most accurate and it just isn't albeit strong. 5. Why. WHY TF is the shotgun a pump action? Trying to reload it is so clunky and awkward.....swap to a auto shotty with 6 or 8 shots and then put it on cooldown to auto reload. The pump reload is 100% trash. Lastly....... give people some kind of tutorial. Let people know they have to suck up the gold cubes tov level up. Should we be right up on the portal or 10ft back? Does dodging actually help? Is there another way to get health? Do the different turrets do more or less damage? Like you HAVE to give us a bit more info than open portal and figure it out. This game has so much potential. Honestly tower defense shooters like this are GOLD if done right. Now clean this up and Do it right! It's so close to being great. Even at the clunky stage it is now.

Good game but

It’s a good game but can you make it so you receive backup. Since enemy troops are coming at you fast make it so you receive. Troops from like drop ships to cover you and can move forward on the map. This should only happen if you have made it to wave 10. Or higher and if you have half of your health. That’s just feedback hope you add my ideas. And one more thing don’t just respond to. Reviews that say things aren’t working and also respond to reviews that have good ratings so people know they were read.

Conceptual win!

The portal worked on my quest 2. The graphics are great, but probably better on quest 3. The weapons, on the other hand, I felt were a little lacking. They look great don't get me wrong, but they run out of charge or ammo too fast. As the waves come they seem to do less and less damage making it hard to keep up. Other than the weapons, the execution of the game is top tier
