It worked. It might have been more fun if it weren't controlled by keyboard but by a pad.

Really simple. The enemies don't even seem to shoot back.

mattchu: Yeah I know. They attack in numbers instead..
I should've made them spawn faster though.
Some powerups and differnt enemies would be nice too.
Hopefully next LD I'll get a more challenging game:)

There's an art to finding the right difficulty level. Most LD games are a little too hard, this one is the exception: it's a little too easy. I don't necessarily view that as a bad thing, but there wasn't enough else in there to make it interesting apart from the challenge.

The game basically stops when you die, and you have to manually quit, which is kind of a bummer when you just died...

It controlled really well, which is something a lot of people struggle with. (I'm terrible at twin-stick shooters like this, and I got to 690 points.)

Good luck on your next one!

Didn't work for me, maybe because I don't have .net 4.0. I'm just told it stopped working if I try to run it.
