Awesome take on the classic arcade game. I like the SFX, I love how your own projectiles are also something to consider. Would have liked an extra enemy or two, with their own special SFX. Cool game!

Didn't expect much from this game but it was really nice, it was a great design choice that you need to catch the bullets or else if hurt the defenses.
Brilliant game. I destroyed my own city with the superweapon, so in a way this is a pretty accurate simulation of what would happen should I get my hands on such a weapon. Beautiful graphics, and behold, it actually has sound, and it's even pleasant. One of my faves so far.
Great twist of a concept of having to catch your bullets before they can do any harm. I like that. As expected I destroyed the city I was supposed to protect - lesson learned: never let me control an invincible superweapon...
Superb graphics and sounds, really, really neatly done.
Very well done, i love the sounds!
This is great, I love the firing mechanic. I do feel that the player moves a tad too fast though, I found it hard to make accurate movements and mostly resorted to swiping from side to side, ha.
Very pretty and innovative.
Fun little game, it was nice that movement wasn't the predictable invaders style enemies. Nicely done.
I like the art style. The sound effects are bordering on annoying, but much better than silence. I think I did more damage to the defences myself than any meteors did - at least in the early stages it seems more effective to just act as a mobile shield. Fun though!
This game is pretty fun! :) I like the simple retro-style aesthetic, I enjoy the nice sound effects (though it can be alittle repetitive after awhile), and I especially enjoy the element of choice when you have to judge if releasing your own projectile will help clear the red projectiles or if it will only harm your barrier. Great work!
Color palette is great. Very old-school feel. I love that your own bullets turn into 'enemies' if you don't use them effectively.
I was confused whether I actually had to shoot or if I could just block the meteors with my ship - but I did like the music element!
Really, really enjoyed this! I dug the soft string sound effects and LOVE that your own bullets come back to cause trouble.
Would have liked more variation to the sounds though.
Overall a great little game. Nice work!
Very nice particel effects. I like how your weapon can cause more damage than the enemies :D
This was a very cool game to play. The difficulty buildup is just right and it makes you want to keep trying to beat your score. The mechanic is fun and punishes you for spamming. You will be spamming in the end though, it gets quite hectic. :P Very nice work!
You did the minimalist graphics and sounds perfectly to me. Also very interesting new take on the classic formula, very enjoyable to play and challenging.
Simple game, pretty fun
Great style and interesting ideas at play here =).
Firing accurately is a bit difficult, though, and since projectiles can cause collateral damage it ends up being easier just to collide against the enemies.
Great sounds and graphic! Simple and challenging game! Nice work!!
Very cool, almost like a souped up version of Space Invaders.
good job! so cute
Very clean and neat looking. I didn't realize at first that I had to catch my own bullets! Man, really cool feature, and hard. Nice sounds; the bouncing bullets and particle effects were very cool too. Nice work.
i love the game -- great concept using your own weapons against you. great job!
I really loved this entry. It embodies the theme well. I liked the sounds and the graphics a lot too! Great job!
Put me in a trance, great game!
