MERRY BELATED XMAS LYNX

You gave me some difficult criteria! Like, "not stupid"! And "Depth"! Those are things I don't normally attempt, but this game turned out really good anyway!

Don't Shoot is an arena shooter where instead of shooting, you run into enemies to destroy them! Sometimes the enemies shoot at you but YOU CAN RUN HEADFIRST INTO THEIR BULLETS AND GET POINTS RAAAR FUCK YOOUUUUU BULLETS

Kill lots of stuff really fast without dying and your multiplier goes up! Complete all four waves and the game loops over, harder, and the multiplier MULTIPLIES! (I have yet to actually complete all four waves but I've gotten close!)

Sound effects courtesy of my son Eric, age 6. He insisted.

I finished this game like a week or two ago but I've been stuck on deciding what music to put in, and finally I decided that you should listen to your own music while you play. It's a feature!

If you want, you can edit the levels by messing around with waves.csv! Make the game vastly easier, or thrust yourself into a punishing, treacherous hellscape of your own devising! The choice is yours! The order of the columns is:
level name, max pursuers, max exploders, max orange circle fuckers (seriously fuck those guys), game ticks
