A How to play description would be nice, it took me a few seconds to figure out how to play. But other then that it was super fun :D

onehappygiant 2012-08-27 18:18

Thanks! I can't believe I forgot that, actually. I'll add that post-LD. :)

Good gameplay, I really like to use arrows to shoot! Did you get this idea from another game or just come up for this one?

onehappygiant 2012-08-28 02:09

I loosely based it on the old StarCraft custom map called Evolves. http://strategywiki.org/wiki/StarCraft/Evolves

Awesomely retro! Great fun.

As some of the other comments have said, it needs a how-to or manual or something. Gameplay isn't too bad, I ended up playing a few times.

Fun game! I like it a lot.

frederickk 2012-08-28 13:59

Simple and fun, I liked it!

solid but very confusing!

I so desperately wanted to use them mouse to aim, probably because I was getting destroyed though. Overall a good retro shooter, felt nice and solid to play.

onehappygiant 2012-08-29 18:13

The mouse is a great idea. That will be improvement #1 in the post compo version. Thanks for playing!

onehappygiant 2012-08-29 18:14

Thanks to all for playing and leaving feedback! It's much appreciated. :)

Cool stuff! I totally dig how frantic the whole experience is :-) AI is a bit too hard to keep up with + the game could use a multiplayer mode—that would be the only two suggestions from me :-)

orni 2012-08-29 21:46

fast, hard and fun game - just as I like it.
took me several attempts to get it right though. the very first time I didn't even understand what was going on ^^
nicely done

Extremely frantic, but decently fun once you get what's going on. The AI is pretty rough however, tried twice, can't keep up with their skills haha.

Short but sweet!

Dave says: Simple but lots of fun. Only thing is it's a bit too fast to start. Maybe add a count down to when the game will begin? Just so the player is not in the middle of it without knowing.

jacic 2012-09-04 21:51

Very fun, action-packed game! :)

Fast, simple and fun. I really like this game. cool graphic art style. sound is OK but I liked gameplay the most. Add multiplayer and you will have great game.

onehappygiant 2012-09-06 14:10

Yea the sound could be much better, but it's not my strongest area. Multiplayer would be awesome! Adding it to the to do list. Thanks for playing!
