Nice entry! I loved the music and it was pretty innovating

lidfrid 2012-04-23 15:08

Pretty confusing game O_O

sanguine 2012-04-23 15:34

The concept is great, but the game was a bit easy though.

doktor-ace 2012-04-23 15:42

Confused the hell out of me

cambrian_era 2012-04-23 15:54

I didn't really get how to play. I mean, I got the controls and all, but a bit more about the rules would have been helpful.

frankthetank 2012-04-23 15:54

I liked it after I realized what to do. Cool concept and catchy music.

zorf 2012-04-23 15:59

Pretty confusing. Passed most levels without really understanding why... Love the psychedelic graphics though. :)

fredericrp 2012-04-23 16:02

Pretty confusing. I -think- I reached the second level, but I'm not even sure of that

Took me a while to figure out what was going on. It's not clear what the goal was since both units look identical. But, once you figure out the mechanics, then it's super easy. Maybe too easy. Good job overall. Keep makin' games!

Confusing gameplay, confusing graphics. Audio is OK. Very short.

dracir 2012-04-23 16:57

With some sounds for bomb explosions and different bomb size (almost can't see it :P), this would be nice!

vdogamez 2012-04-23 17:05

I'm confused a bit. I can play the game, but there doesn't seem to be much too it. I can move blue guys to the sides and up and down with some really strange controls, and make the red guy hit the bomb, but there are some weird things going on.

Nothing is actually centered on the planet if you go up and down, the things just rotate around an arbitrary point that can be moved. In level 1, the ships go through the planet, in 3 onwards, though, your ships get destroyed if you touch the planet, with no penalties, so you can make the red one hit the bomb at your leisure. Level 2, uh... There's some kind of weird 3D physics based collision somehow. I guess it's because you're using unity? I am so confused right now.

It has a world, but doesn't seem to be very 'tiny'... by the way, how do you actually play? I sort of worked it out, but it's confusing...

jeroenimooo 2012-04-23 17:12

I walked out of the world so fast D:

netmute 2012-04-23 17:18

Took me a while to figure out what I'm supposed to do. But then I won. Nice music thought.

crazyheckman 2012-04-23 17:20

I am thoroughly confused

berkano 2012-04-23 17:21

a bit confusing to start with, but soon figured it out! great music!

papygaragos 2012-04-23 17:26

can't figure what to do :/

wyzfen 2012-04-23 17:38

Seems that you can blow up without hitting a bomb, and you can just run the enemies into the planet.

chinchang 2012-04-23 17:45

played it 3 times to get what to do...figured eventually..nice concept.

johanp 2012-04-23 17:55

Not quite sure what was going on but I won!

fabricio-brito 2012-04-23 21:12

Nice innovation, and I thought it didn't quite need any instruction. Trial and error worked just fine to figure out the gameplay.

I used Unity as well and ended up with a completely different game. That's what a game dev platform is all about: Flexibility! ;)

mattchu 2012-04-24 02:40

Very interesting concept. Took a moment to get used to it, but once I did, it was pretty easy. Would have loved to see more/harder levels. :)

nilstastic 2012-04-24 08:58

Good: Nice audio!
Bad: Wierd controls

davidllanos22 2012-04-24 09:42

It's pretty confusing D:

transmit 2012-04-24 11:52

I seemed to shoot through levels at times without even meaning it, and at one point it just kept rapidly restarting the level I was on.

pinkmonkeyhead 2012-04-24 13:50

wtf o_o

unicornpooping 2012-04-24 16:48

Oh! I get it. Took me a while. Neat. Good music.

30dogs 2012-04-25 00:08

I like the idea. You should keep trying some more level designs and try to make it more challenging. Also, I noticed it is possible to crash all of your friendly ships on the planet and still win.

rvmook 2012-04-25 18:50

Didn't really get it. But hey I won ;).

omaha 2012-04-26 04:26

I didn't quite understand what to do, but it was pretty cool for a few minutes there :)

adventureislands 2012-04-26 19:28

Nice music. Gameplay was pretty confusing, I could still cleart stages even if all my own ships were gone.

ben 2012-04-26 21:55

Good job, a little confusing, but entertaining

datamosh 2012-05-09 21:42

Music is nice. Graphics work, but could be improved. At first is REALLY confusing, even when I won I think I didn't know quite why, lol. Keep working on it! Seems totally cool for a mobile device maybe ;)

tcstyle 2012-05-12 07:05

Nice idea but it seems to be quite buggy at the moment. The controls are a little confusing at first.
