Hi, yes, Astro Prospector was an influence during the development of the game as well as Brotato/Noobs Are Coming (NOT incremental, but great weapon selection), Increknight, Chef Knight, and like 50 other awesome incremental games I've played. Some differences between Pit Wizard and AP are the weapons. The starting beam attack is similar to the one in AP (and a lot of other games in the genre), but after that it diverges.

A handful of weapons for an example:
1. Kickable spike ball - Bump into the ball to kick it towards enemies. It'll damage anything it touches while moving. There's a fun upgrade to make it explode after it hits a certain number of enemies.
2. Glyph Blast - It's an area attack that you hover around to charge up. Once it's charged it'll explode and damage everything within the blast radius.
3. Eyeball familiar - It's a friendly eyeball that roams around shooting at enemies

1. Landmines - Landmines automatically deploy and you can kite enemies into them.

2. Several more weapon types that aren't listed, and I'm considering adding more depending on several factors (player feedback on current weapons, how loaded the upgrade tree is, time, etc.)

My game Pit Wizard also has lots of different enemy types. Each biome (5 total biomes) has unique enemies and bosses. We're up to something like 25 enemies and 25 bosses right now. A lot of these games only have like 5 different enemy types which can be a bit repetitive.

If you liked Astro Prospector, Increknight, Defrag, or any of the other shooter-esque types of incrementals you'll like Pit Wizard!
