Apr 5 15:55:05 Board to DEATH ♥ 2 Outstanding work! Wonderful graphics and a great game concept. I found the puzzles to be on the easy side and wished that reset would work instantly instead of having to sit through the animation. The rules also weren't 100% clear, had to find out through trial and error that enemy pieces only capture once. But those are pretty minor flaws and the idea and execution are both superb here. Good luck with the ratings I feel that you'll do very well!
Apr 5 20:33:23 4h 38m This Mortal Coil ♥ 1 Very interesting take on a bullet hell! I ended up playing a few games and got 536125 points with a time of 573 on my last attempt. Some thoughts: - On my first few games I was often confused as to what hit me, until I figured out the appearing flames and the tails on the purple projectiles. Maybe those could be clearer somehow? - The sides of the screen seemed like very dangerous places to be with the screen-width beams spawning right on top of you. It felt a bit bad to lose my multiplier to something that's so random. - The clocks giving a (seemingly)random amount of extra time felt a bit strange as well. - I would've liked to be able to keep moving by holding down a direction. Though I can also see why you'd have it the way it is. Overall I found the game enjoyable and novel, good work!
Apr 6 10:23:01 13h 49m TAILGUNNER ♥ 0 Running out of ammo and being permanently stuck in an up-down limbo I found a bit weird. Also, for a bit of unsolicited advice, I think the bullets and rockets would look better if they were a lot bigger, and it would also improve clarity of the game. I found that kind of visual feedback to be a bit lacking in the game, it could definitely be more dramatic! Anyway, being clearly new to making games you did a great job, the audio and the pixel art were both excellent.
