It's pretty neat. It reminds me of robotron. I like how it's really simple and easy to control with just your mouse.

I really liked the simple audio and graphics. It was pretty fun!

I really like how the birds start as squares and get built up as they spawn. Great use of theme as well!

The mechanic of traveling in the same direction you shoot forces you to always be aggressive. You can't just back off and fire and avoid enemies. You really have to go headlong into them!

I like the concept, but the controls (sluggish movement, shot direction) make it somewhat hard to enjoy your game :/

Great stuff -- did something similar w/ only one bit of ammo & having to recollect. It's great to see it working somewhere else as well :)

Great concept, decent implementation. I liked it anyway.

This would be much more fun with more responsive controls. Neat idea.

Nice idea and use of the theme! Controls could do to be snappier and more responsive.

Weird controls make it hard, but I guess it would just be too easy otherwise. It's actually kind of fun trying to work it.

Really cool game. I like the simple graphics and audio. It's pretty fun.

Neat game! I like the idea of only having one bullet and having to catch it to recharge it. The moose controls are a bit strange since he doesn't directly follow you. It gets frustrating here and there, but overall it's a nice game!
