I like the idea. It could make for a good game with more time put into it.

I like the nod to the movie. Movement is a bit sluggish, maybe that was the intention. Good job.

The graphics might be simple, but there's something about the art style that I like.

Very very simple and fast to understand :D Good Job

I was confused at first about what killed me (only getting hit in the white spot kills you), but other than that it was pretty fun.

Like the idea.
Movemments are just to slow !
Movie hint is very funny :)
Hope you can get a new version out with more time !

Like the idea. Needs a lot of work, but there's a neat little arcade style game here, I think. As it is I'd see this as pure prototype that warrants additional work.

Nice

Nice game seems a bit empty but I like the Idea.

It was very confusing at first, I really couldn't understand why couldn't I destroy planes with laser.

smaxx 2012-12-17 14:33

Minimalistic... but it works. Someone being a fan of ID4 I guess. Took be some time to figure out I can't shoot down the planes, though.

You have to " commit suicide" a couple of times to understand how you can kill and avoid :)

rasmusrn 2012-12-17 14:56

I like the idea - but the game needs some polish to be really.

I know this might be due to time constraints, but I could help asking myself:
- Why can't I shoot the aircraft?
- Why are they acting like kamikaze pilots?

Good idea, I wish there were explosions like in the film and it was a bit difficult to actually blow things up on account of those dastardly planes

Small game, misses a bit of more stuff.

fishbrain 2012-12-18 15:32

Nice clean graphics.

Mmmm... confusing

michax 2012-12-21 21:07

Needed a little time to figure things out. But in the end i got it :) Spaceship could be a little faster and maybe continously working laser would be more funt to use.
Anyway, congratulation on finishing compo!

I thought the city specific landmarks were a great touch and chuckled. I found it difficult to evade the jets and wished I could defend my ship against them. Liked it overall.
