The controls feel nice, shooting the "repeated" shotgun was fun :P I also like the sounds. I actually really liked the music too, although it didn't seem to fit the idea of being "invaded"

I'm sorry to hear about the lost progress >.< I recommend using a Subversion of some sort, like SourceTree, which comes with Git if you choose that option.

I would like to see more enemy types, along with limited supply of ammo. Maybe ammo dropped by aliens? Maybe new weapons after defeated tough enemies/bosses?

Cheers

I had limited ammo and a working game over screen, unfortunately, I had not made a recent backup. I will have to make sure of that for next time, and thanks for the suggestions :D

The graphics were nice and the controls were solid. Very nice.

Awesome and fun! But I think this game needs some goal. Great job!!

Ahh, the joy of committing shotgun-powered mass murder in the evening! This was way more fun to play than it should have been. Is it normal to run around with negative health or was that a bug?

the shotgun feels really nice to shot. Its a shame you lost your backup, the game would be pretty fun if there were more threats in it! currently it seems I could keep killing those barman robots (they really look like barmans ahhahha (?)) forever xD

this was fun - although it's not very difficult or rich in variety.

the music somehow accompanied the gameplay in a strange, yet great way - certainly didn't expect this light-fun sounding melody while looking at the screenshots

all in all a very nice entry - I'm looking forward to your upcoming ludum dare entries in the future :)

It's not HTML5... you might want to change that in the link description.

I changed the link - thanks for pointing that out

Not a bad fps for 48 hrs. The way the theme was used was not very strong, but good entry nonetheless :)

Strange game, the shotgun always firing straight ahead even when you point it up/down war downright hillarious... :)
Not bad for 48 hours, also not specially good...

Not the best gameplay or relevance to the theme, but I have to say that I found the sound absolutely stellar.
