Number of Enemies in a Full Length Game

[Syaxamaphone]

There is no one correct answer for this question. Many developers take different approaches to enemy selection and design.

Personally I try to always have at least one enemy specific to every stage I make and then a pool of 'regular enemies' I mix in. You can take these regular enemies and mix them in with stage-specific elements to make unique challenges.
