I think I got dizzy from all those flying bobs! Nice though, performance runs well. And although there's no background music, it's nice to have those Piano notes SFXes as an indication of progress.

Thanks for the review! Background music is right on its way! Actually, I just uploaded the new version.
Also did some balancing and whatnot
As soon as I realized that your minons take bullets for you, I started having swarms of them flying a 45 degree pattern of interference infront of me and then had the rest fly a tight back and forth jiggle all around me as protection. Loved it. Got 23k something of a score. :)
I enjoyed this game... I liked the intensity of it. Fun graphics and music to accompany the gameplay. Now to let me eyes get back to normal, haha! :-)
I liked the minions, made for a unique and interesting gameplay.
Awesome Game!
One of the best game designs so far. Love the music very simple but complex at the same time.
Wow. VERY smooth and fast-paced gameplay. Creative game mechanics as well.
The generative sound design approach would have worked better if it was a little more harmonious, but the background music is quite nice on its own.
I feel like the game starts to get very visually cluttered once you have a lot of minions, it's really hard to tell where your character is and what the heck is going on. Still, an impressive effort!
The gameplay is interesting and kinda innovative!
Ouch! Its so hard to hit the enemies with the minions!
Loved the game but it was a bit hard for me
Excellent game, some really good visuals and the audio was spot on as well. A great, solid idea for a game mechanic, would make really enjoyable game if you fleshed this out into something more.
Dude, really cool art! Especially for the first time. Innovative gameplay and smooth controls too!
I'm not sure what this had to do with evolution, and it was a bit disorienting.
Having said that... I LOVED the concept of this game, and the simplicity of the audio (when hitting/being hit was a very nice touch.
Wow, I think all the flying bobs gave me a bit of a headache. I really love the way you incorporated the audio in this game. It was magical and beautiful. The graphics were smooth and slick, even if the swarming minions nearly caused me to fall over.
I found the gameplay harder to get into though, because as beautiful as they are the graphics were also rather disorienting and it was difficult to really know what I was doing.
Outstanding! The pieces fit really well together: the soft music and the winged protagonists flying over snow-covered mountain ranges convey a sort of solemn piety, contrasted very fittingly by those scattered piano notes of violence :)
I especially like the faces of those minions; some of them are not too happy about being drafted for your purposes :D
amazing I liked the idea the bullets convert my minions and making paths for the minions :D
The progression was a little fast but the idea and execution was spot on. Like I said I would like more time to get use to my bob minions. Super cool!
good job!
Awesome! The concept of painting the paths of my cannonfodder was confusing first, but grew on me - especially considering the hordes of enemies. The audio is outstanding, although it needs a bit time getting used to it. I first expected more normal sound effects. Great game!
Doesn't really have anything to do with evolution, cool concept with the cannon fodder minions, they are so fast they are bit hard to control though.
It take me one game to understand the mechanics, but the second one was really enjoyable.
i like how the mechanics work a lot. great game!
Really liked the game mechanic and the piano sound effects were great!
Love the gag with the minions flying over the camera :)
Awesome. Just awesome. I only got it after the first play like many others here, but then it rocked. It's different, and almost feels soothing. I personally enjoyed hugging the top of the screen and sending my minions up and down the play area.... Just awesome.
