Excellent game, good work.
Great game! Good graphics and the sets of rounds make you want to keep playing. Good work!
Very nice!
Really good game , I did not expect to see a boss and building mechanics.
Stellar audio and art work. Really loved the setting and the idea of cycling stages. 10 seconds made it hard to gauge hat was going on, but that's not your fault! Loved it.
Really enjoyed this. The menu screen looked great as well.
It's great fun! nice job!
Thanks everyone, I'm glad you liked the audio as I'm pretty proud of it (did that all from scratch over this weekend)
Thanks for mentioning the menu screen too, I know someone on our team who will be very happy to read that!
Only one word: THISGAMEISTOTALLYAWESOME!
This game is really cool.
I really like aesthetic that you have going on
Wow. That was pretty intense. It took me a couple rounds to really figure out what I was doing, but once I got the hang of it, it was quite fun. Like others, I thought the music really stood out. Nicely done.
Jaw dropping amazing! 5 stars all the way!
This is fantastic, the constant switching between gameplay styles livens things up no end. Not to mention that it looks and sounds amazing. A great entry.
Awesome mix of modes =D
Super hard core theme interpretation. It was hard but I liked the art. It would probably help if the transitions between phases were sliiiightly longer to allow for mental shift between the modes. Good job.
Nice one!
Love the character-deign. OF COURSE she has her own death-robot :)
Unfortunately the game lagged on my computer very badly so it was pretty unplayable. What I did manage to see was pretty interesting though.
I loved the contrast between the intro and the rest of the game. How we jump from "Hey.. you're... dreaming.." to a strobe light of action.
Nice one.
Fantastic story to the gameplay, awesome top notch with the sounds and mechanics! Teddyy!
sorry for that short)
Neat game. The art is really well done. It felt really frantic to me, but I think that was the point. I had a bug where my character just keept moving downward no matter what direction I pressed.

Awesome job guys :D
Nice game - liked the theme usage
Who would've thought that Michelangelo would get April...
Fun idea, great pixels and nice details such as the pointer etc.
I felt the game is lacking feedback when you hit things/are hit. Particle, a louder sfx or flickering would have helped... Also, the hitbox was too big (or the lack of response made me mistake it).
Great idea and theme interpretation, though! :D
Thanks for the kind words everyone
@GFM - I agree about the feedback, I made sure there were particles and a sound effect, but with everything else happening it's hard to notice. It's one thing that I wish we'd had time to do, we kept trying screen shake but it wasn't really working.
@Wertle - Yes I think that's fair about the transitions, I think it's just that when you play your own game so much over a weekend then you know what to expect
@Starspell - Really sorry about the lag, think it is probably a combination of the looped collision checking and the many particle effectss. Low powered or older processors may have a bit of trouble I guess.
@CosmicAdventureSquad - That is weird browser bug that happens if you click outside of the window whilst moving. It usually corrects itself within a few seconds. Still, sorry!
@robb - All the text says is that Michelangelo obtained that high score in April. I'll let you make of that what you will...
... Also my best score is 7080
Fun stuff, I dig the music. Props for having a high score table!
I love the art and the frenetic pacing. The ending made me laugh!
I didn't realize the first time that my health carried between rounds, and I got careless! I'm glad that this game has a persistent goal, it gave me a greater reason to play the rounds well and keep pushing forward.
I like how every elements of the game are objects from Poppy's room.
You made a real complete game, with different weapons and different game modes.
Music are really nice, the one form the menu reminds me of Sebastien Shuller.
Epic! Great work )
Very well done game. I love this tower defense stage, even if I have no clue what the turrents to. I like the mechanics and the graphics are awesome. Why is there no fullscreen option? :)
Was really fun to play and great that you incorporated three different game segments into one, also it was nice with the little tower defence gameplay to be among the other two as it gave you a little bit of a breather.
Also gotta love those turtles!
Awesome audio, you are right to be proud!
I liked it the multiple powerups and the shifting of modes kept it fast paced and fresh. Felt like a total boss firing missles and shotgunning at the same time haha. Nice work.
A very good game. Maybe one of the best game I've seen so far in term of graphics IMO.
I really like the mix between a Tower Defense and a Shoot them up in the "they are coming" phase,
I found the 10 seconds transition a bit rough, you are in plain action and everything suddenly stops. I have no idea how you could have improved that but it needs some sort of nice transition in term of gameplay.
Yeaaaah 5430 I almost die near the end ! Very good entry, it's fast and we shoot things and there's music and all !
Excellent game! Love the mode changes.
good job
Woah, I have to admit I have NO idea what was going on there - "ohh, shooting things! No wait, building something? No wait.. boss fight! Um... wut!" (Perhaps this was just trying to jam the "10 seconds" thing in there?) but damn, it was certainly a rollercoaster ride... Fantastic game design - excellent sounds and consistent aesthetic.
This game is insanity. I actually like a lot of what's going on here, but the 10 second switches are really jarring.
So beautiful! Thank you for that experience :)
good use of the theme and great idea with the different stages -- i loved it
I like the gameplay variety and the different kinds of weapons you can get.
I really like the boss design :)
The tower defense segment felt a little out of place in my opinion.
Great game!
Super great! Very polished, though a little too hectic for my taste. But I guess that is what you have to do with 10 seconds :P
Lovely graphics! :)
Very polished game, everything about it looks professional. Good job!
Very cool entry! I like everything that is dream reltated and this game is no exception.
Ooo, cool frontend!
Really nice game, I didn't feel rushed or get confused with controls, the layout give you time, and explain it really well. The art and music is cute and suits the game well.
Really good job! :)
Wow! love the art, the gameplay, the three playing modes, the music, the sound effects, just everything. This game is hard! Really enjoyed it!
Excellent. The story-telling was concise but evocative, the visuals and sound matched the mood perfectly and the gameplay was varied and fun. Very enjoyable!
Nice art style and mood. Interesting gameplay ideas. Not sure if the 10s phases work all that well with this game, sometimes it felt like the time was up just when I started doing something cool.
A solid, quality effort.
the dream beast.. great play on concept nice work guys!
Good game.
But it should be a bit slower.
I really liked this! Was fun to switch between the game modes and have the meta goal of beating the boss. Well done game.
