I played this for a little while, and had some fun with it. I really like the idea itself, but I think it's incredibly challenging, maybe a bit too much. The very first enemy is already shooting in 4 directions and his bullets are pretty fast, I die very easily. Maybe have the first few waves be slower enemies, weaker weapons, and work up to these harder guys? Either way, I do like this arena shooter style game and I think you can do a lot with it. Good job.

Yup I agree with Drachlen, it gets really hard quite quickly but in the beggining, the space between enemies is very slow.

Robotron! Getting cash faster would have been nice, but maybe I'm just bad at it. :)

very slow paced but not bad

Fun addictive little game. Really liked the shop system. Probably should stop the user from going off of the screen.

Fun game with a few tweaks it will be a really good game. Good job

SO HARD! I don't understand how to kill an enemy without taking just as much damage as I deal.

Interesting game. I enjoy in game shops.

Interesting, but starts out really slowly, and then there's suddenly way too many enemies. Gameplay is negating by just holding a key, which just shoots a straight line of bullets, making the game rather easy.

Could have been better, but I do like the basic concept of it!

Always love a dual-stick shooter.

Simple but great game. Try maximizing the window for a cool effect

Cool. Very simple presentation but it works and it is quite fun to play. Good job!

Well, I don't have much to add. Basically what DaVince, EmptyFlash and choqaae said :)

love this genre of game. nice take on it using the theme. Plays well difficulty ramps up quickly.
