Meh. It's ok, but it doesn't look pretty, and the cutscenes are kind of annoying.
Just feels really clunky but gratz on making the game.
I understand the dark colors fit the theme, but this is probably way too much :).
It's a bit dark. Also, I think I managed to both win and lose at the same time on level 2.. First it said that everyone died, and then Jimmy was praised as a hero. Then level 2 began again and I instantly lost again. Think you've got a bug there.
During the first play I ran outside and noticed the appearing powerups later. Then it was easy to rush to the left side and kill the beast. But my poor base suffered and was stormed on the next level.
Without the sounds it has quite a creepy atmosphere.
I liked the atmosphere for this, and it was pretty fun running through guys once I figured out what was going on. The particle effect when you killed an enemy was cool.
The shooting was pretty much useless because everything was too small and/or took too many shots. The bullet velocity didn't scale well, so I was often moving faster than the bullets I was shooting. The powerups spawning in the base seemed counter-intuitive since the only way to save my base was to leave the base.
Also... "Jimmy"? Really? :P
It's a cool idea, but deflecting the rocks or balls or whatever is clunky. That mechanic needs improvement, either by being able to jump to dodge, or make hitting them more effective, or just make them explode when you hit them.
A little awkward in the controls, plus not being able to see very well is problematic. A good start, though.
