bobo72a 2013-04-29 03:16

Best game I've played so far!

bb_buster 2013-04-29 03:19

I Liked it, nice and simple and pretty fun =)
Good job.

bloogloo 2013-04-29 03:29

Very cool

Zenithik 2013-04-29 03:41

Awesome :D

maloki 2013-04-29 04:19

I love the concept! At first my right hand felt awkward not having to do anything...until I remembered that the arrow keys worked too. :P

cacciatc 2013-04-29 04:30

I like how all the necessary info you need is integrated into the back of your character.

suese 2013-04-29 07:18

Casual. When my brain hurts from playing so many games the one handed thing feels nice for some reason.

Not having to use the mouse was awesome. I digged the music and the art style.

ianmaclarty 2013-04-29 09:37

Brilliant!

multitude 2013-04-30 02:39

One of the best games on here. a endless mode with harder enemies would be cool. love the auto aim function.

msquirrel 2013-04-30 06:30

very nicely done, I just couldn't get the hang of the controls though :S probably more my fault than yours! :P

spierek 2013-04-30 08:45

Really great. I liked the randomization of the levels and the overall visuals.

My only gripe was the "singlemindedness" of the enemies - almost all of them jump out of the cover at once, raining bullets on you; then at the same moment they all hide again.

robcozzens 2013-04-30 17:10

Pretty cool!

snakeeater 2013-04-30 22:01

Very nice game, congrats :)

celticraft49 2013-04-30 23:25

I loved it, but it took me fifteen tries to get past the 1st level.

khaotom 2013-05-02 06:18

Wow, very clever and fun.

tzamora 2013-05-03 03:22

I like it.

somenetworkguy 2013-05-04 05:26

Excellent job. By far, the funnest game I have played so far! The reloading and gaining health by ducking/not moving mechanic was nice. The level design was excellent. The animations were perfect. Hearing the bullets whiz by me was a nice touch.

I think the only problem I had about it was I don't want to stop playing it!

Very well done!

hughsk 2013-05-04 06:11

Was actually pretty fun once I worked it out - it's a bit hard at first, but otherwise great job! :)

jwin 2013-05-04 08:21

Thanks for playing it everyone! I'm glad so many of you seem to enjoy it.

It seems like my instructions were a bit lacking, however, so I added a tiny blurb to the description. Hopefully that will make it a bit less confusing when starting out.

beerman 2013-05-04 11:19

Really fun. Once I got the hang of using the cover and popping up to shoot I had a blast. Make more levels! :D

minionstudios 2013-05-04 14:52

Great cover game! Impressed by the simplicity of the system used...

dmitrix 2013-05-04 19:25

I like the music and graphics.

naoistheguardian 2013-05-05 00:13

Cool game, nice and simple!

biscuitdough 2013-05-05 08:11

Kinda want to see it as a phone game, very interesting controls.

covenant 2013-05-05 12:45

Fantastic stuff, really boiled down the essence of a cover-based shooter... Really loved this one, even if it is very difficult!
Excelent work!

Awesome game! Minimalistic Gears of War. I would really play an expanded version - more enemies, more weapons, more variety, some simple procedural storyline. More kinds of rooms.

MAKE IT INTO A FULL-BLOWN ROGUELIKE!

The ending was kind of anti-climatic tough. I entered the obelisk... and that's it.

ltyrosine 2013-05-05 14:58

This game is pure fun. Nice music, furious action. Really nice work.

kyyninen 2013-05-05 19:38

Good reductionist take on the genre! Definitely my favourite shooter so far.

messiano 2013-05-06 00:22

Simple and fun, at first I didn't understand how to duck, but once I realized it then I liked the minimalistic controls. Good take on the theme.

monxcleyrproductions 2013-05-06 04:36

Well done! Concept fits the theme well, and it's surprisingly fun given what little the player has to do. A lot of nice little touches as well, with the sound of bullets whizzing by and the reload/health meter on the back of the player's avatar.

fishbrain 2013-05-06 14:05

Nice! ...that was fun!

zkenshin 2013-05-07 01:23

Quite fun, bit hard though. :P

exclamation_mark 2013-05-07 20:11

Very enjoyable! The controls aren't 100% spot on, but I think this is not a bug but a feature :) The ending is a bit disappointing though, it definitely left me wanting more.

turbodindon 2013-05-10 16:39

Hehe cool, like a simplified version of Mass Effect using gameplay cover.

Very fun game.

lu3mm3l 2013-05-18 11:40

Loved it. Everything. Well, except that I'd prefer to pick/aim myself. But that's me ;)

xanjos 2013-05-18 12:02

Incredibly fun and addictive. The ducking/reloading mechanic makes the game look like a really nice cross between Gears of War and Time Crisis.
