I have no idea what I was killing, but I bygod killed it.

I liked the turrets that slingshot the bullet.
Kind of a strange game, and wierd to have a melee attack for this type of game. Very original though.

Ramming things to attack them was kind of annoying. Other than that, a passible little side scrolling shooter.

Melee shmup, why not? :)

The game didn't work; crashed on startup. :(

I have a soft spot for melee "shooters" - actually made one before - so this is interesting. Main thing is that the physics are difficult to handle. If I were to make a ramming game like this, I'd probably go with an Asteroids-style control system instead (left and right steer the ship, up accelerates, down brakes). Also, why do the bullets follow you for such an incredibly long time?!
