Sweet logo! I found the game pretty tough. Also, going into debt buying items is a really odd mechanic, I don't think I've ever seen that.

Nice!

Great concept, wonderfully executed. The graphics were adorable and the audio was perfect - extremely nostalgic. Took me right back. Loved it!

Ravetcofx: On it! I haven't used Ubuntu in a long while though... hopefully it doesn't take too long.

For a bullet hell, you've got the proper elements: small hitbox, erratic wave patterns, and those occasional hard-to-reach coins.
Music is nice, and controls are smooth.
I'm not sure though if having negative money is a bug or not; whenever I play the normal "start" mode, no items are for sale.
I wish the game though have its powerups spawn more frequently (and to balance it out, less ammo) The cross gun is too imbalanced.

Fun, and cute graphics!

Whoah~! I really like danmaku genre. This title is crazy!

The wave levels were a mess. My experience with BH games has been that they have a pattern you can learn and predict, though it may be very hard to do so. These just seemed random. Not a deal breaker by any means, but it made it much harder than I was expecting.

I've never been very good at bullet hell situations, so I couldn't survive long enough to see the whole game.
From what I've seen, though, the game is really neat and to the point.

Had fun playing this, the graphics were pleasing =)

Wave 4 wtf... haha this was a fun game. Pretty tough.

I liked art and music, but the game itself is a little bit too hard. Going into debt is a good mechanic, as it really helps surviving.

Good and addictive game with some good ideas like the item shop. Try to add animations on your player next time it would be more punchy!

Cool ideia and I loved the graphics. Too bad that I suck at "bullet hell" games.

Pleasant execution, but really really tough.

I never saw any other powerups then the DEF.

A very excellent avoider! I like that there are upgrades. A really tight little game. Good Job!

tainted_code 2013-08-27 23:14

It was hard, and wow, I love the debt idea ;o

Brilliant dodging game - challenging but doesn't feel unfair, some interesting mechanics and nice graphics and audio.

jimanzium 2013-08-28 10:25

I love the graphics style, and the way waves varied was pretty good. Fun to play, good job.

gamexcore 2013-08-28 20:42

Fun, but really suffered from the difficulty curve, it took me a fair few attempts to get past lvl 2, then lvl 3 was a doddle.

namrog84 2013-08-29 06:53

Well put together and executed! good job!

Would have preferred higher res or 'resizable' cause its hard to see small

xaychru04 2013-08-30 10:29

This is very difficult, but I enjoyed it. The shop adds a lot to the game too.

Intense gameplay, managed to buy stuff but no money in wave 4 :o Kept it alive til wave 7. Was fun to play. Nice done.

Cute graphics, solid gameplay, all around great entry. Only complaint is the upgrade system should have shown you what you could save for, instead of only showing you what you can buy.
