I've just added a stack dump messagebox to catch crashes. If it crashes for you, let me know what the first line of that says and I'll get fixing!
Will you marry me?
fantastic, the gamefeel is absolutely perfect and the sounds/graphics/overall mood is incredible.
Cool game, very nice concept :D
It starts a little slow, but gets better and better. Lots of variation in the enemies and a nice difficulty curve. Great job!
Amazing graphics and a good take on the theme.
Thought it could have used more enemies though, and it would have really benefited from having some music. But overall, good job!
Bit of a shame about the 450MB framework I had to install to get it running that I'll probably never use again!
Cool game, great work
Not bad at all, in fact, lots of fun with a xbox pad, awesome game ;)
Impressive! It's got me playing for quite a while.
Awesome graphics and sound effects, perfect gameplay with great controls and an awesome upgrade system!
Some music would've been perfect, so I encourage you to add it and release somewhere! Good job!
Looks and plays fantastically. Could have used more enemies and maybe some background music though.
Well done, definitely an idea that could be interesting if expanded upon.
The above/below water thing is great graphically. While the absence of music gave a certain atmosphere, I think something minimalist would have also fit well. I don't think I noticed if the handling changed when submerged, but it's probably because I'm not very good at this type of game. :v
Could've been more exciting to be honest :) Other than that pretty cool :p
Very fun, the parallax adds a great visual effect. I was thinking, "what happens if I go underwater? Do I die? OOOHHH the theme!" Maybe add more features and it could become a great exploration game.
Hi, this is Vector from the Victory Garden team! (posting under Solifuge's account)
This is really cool! The enemy design is good, the level progression is nice, and the sound effects give a really satisfying feedback when you're playing. Honestly, I have nothing bad to say... just that maybe a backing audio track that crossfades when you're in the air vs. underwater would be cool? It'd also be nice if the two regions were somewhat differentiated mechanically, though obviously of course this is just a 72-hour game jam.
Anyway, nice shooter, nice UI! Thanks for the experience.
16400 points in first try ... Awesome :D
The controls feel pretty good, and there a re some nice effects all over which makes the game pleasant to play. Good job
Really love the game, a lot of fun to play. The parallax effect is totally awesome! I also liked the physics of the ship, very deep indeed. Cool transition between the sea and the surface. You could add enemies which need to be defeated by shooting above and below sea level.
Really fun game! I just wish the enemies weren't so spread out. Maybe tightening up the levels would make the game a bit more exciting. Great graphics though and I love the spin down sound of the ship's guns.
Crashed on Windows 7 x64 extracted into /tmp/LudumDare29/. Was proper LD zip. "Problem signature" sent via e-mail. Happy to review properly
The game is pretty fun! Though the map is rather big IMO. Great Game anyway! :)
Crashed on open, but I ran the openAL installer and it worked fine after that, I scored 12600! This game's graphics are phenomenal, the parallax and particle effects are just gorgeous. The gameplay is really fun also, the only thing I'd say could've been done better is maybe having lots of a weaker type of enemy in the first stage or two. I loved the variations of enemies later on, and the upgraded weapons!
Oh my god, this was amazing. The parallax scroll was absolutely awesome, the pixel art was beautiful, all the tweening effects were just great. It just looks and feels so good to play, you really nailed the "feel" of the game. The ability to go beneath the surface and see a whole other world as well differentiates this from other such games and really ties in the theme.
Nice one, I look forward to your future entries.
Super fun game!!! I included it in part 12 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series! http://youtu.be/O5O979VlwyY
I picked this one because my wife liked the screenshots. I'm glad I listened to her. I love the old school graphics but what appeal to me the most are the slick slick controls. The inertia is perfectly balanced; it's not easy to maneuver but it is never unfair. The piloting sensation is great.
Power ups work well to : they come at the right pace and really make you feel more powerful.
I guess you wanted to do something with the towers but didn't have time.
I hope you'll want to keep working on it. The best action entry for me so far. Good job.
note : the game crashed but I didn't see any window pop up after that.
Amazing visuals. Underwater combat was a nice twist, but overall combat could be more satisfying.
I'm getting some Defender vibes, which is good because I loved that game. Loving that parallax, nice game!
I LOVED the graphics, a ton. Very fun! I really like how there's differents waves too. Great job!
Very good game.
