Nice Game!

Wow, it was hard. A funny game!

Probably my favourite game so far. It took a while, but I beat it! I have two small suggestions to make it even better; 1: Don't restart the music all the time. When you play many times the restarts gets annoying. 2: lock the win screen in place for a few seconds. I beat it many times but though I lost since I was spam clicking and the win screen dissappeared immediately and the game reset (as if I had lost)

Kevlanche
"Probably my favourite game so far." Oh! You almost made me cry. That's why I love making games.

I feel more or less proud with the result. But you are right, some improvements should be done. I would like to make more and more levels for it now I've got time.

I'm afraid I didn't see your point 2, because you are right. Thanks for the advice :)

Haha.. that was fun.. and hard....

As everyone said Hard&Fun!

Reminds me of a level in Donkey Kong Country Returns.

Man the game is hard! But I really really like it. It's more like a puzzle game than an action game, figuring out the patterns of the aliens.

Difficulty is a bit strange, it's quite hard to get to the gun, but then it's very easy.
Also for the compo you're supposed to do the music yourself.

autlos 2013-08-27 16:47

Hi Latcarf, thank you for you feedback. Yes, you are right, it's easy after you got the gun.

About the music: "Fonts, drum loops, drum samples, and sampled instruments are allowed IF you have the legal right to use them."

And I DO have the legal right to use it.

Doesn't run.

autlos 2013-08-28 10:38

Hi almightzentaco. Have you got java 7 installed?

So sorry for that, it seems you are not the only one who can't run the game. I'm trying to fix that.

Liked the gameplay a lot in the way, although it took me a while to figure out how to play the game properly. It's a shame there's only one level, but then again, I think the point is to beat your own score, isn't it?

Nice! I really enjoyed this one! I liked having to play it over and over and memorize the exact timings of all the enemies to make it through. I managed to beat it!

sengi 2013-08-29 17:28

I'd like that! Nice difficult

mlinus 2013-08-29 17:44

I missed the space bar feature the first time I played. That made it pretty hard, I must say. :D

Really fun game, I liked the timing stuff and that you could use the slow down feature at different places to get different results. Fun idea and well done! :)

Great music, and I agree that it's really hard!
Though the aliens did not have to disappear as soon as it touches the edge of the barrels if you just drew the aliens on a lower layer than the barrels.
It was quite fun! Great job!

Nice entry. Admittedly not my kind of game, but I see how some (or a lot of?) people would enjoy the mechanics. :) Also nice tutorial.

alexfili 2013-09-14 09:31

Great music. The actual gameplay is interesting. The AI patrols are a bit annoying but they do have a pattern. The slow motion ability didn't really have a lot of use, but it's definitely nice to have. Good attempt and nice use of the theme.
