Fun little game! The title screen is gorgeous and I love the little intro sequence. Shame you couldn't make the compo but a good game none the less!

I like it! It's well polished and rounded off, a good challenge, and intense in small doses :) I really like the way the game starts and the way it moves!

Could be nice if you make the mine explosions hit enemy subs - more interactivity is cool :D

@longshorts: thanks, I'm happy you like the graphics :)

@Tuism: I didn't have time to get too deep into the enemies AI. At least they accelerate and turn the same way the player submarine does. I no way perfect, but... I couldn't do more! :) Thanks for your comment! Very appreciated!

Really enjoyable game :D The graphics style is really sweet too :)

Cool pixel style, really liked the mines. Felt the movement could have done with some acceleration.

It is a good game, well polished! I do agree that the title screen looks really lovely and then the transition into the actual game looks great

This is pretty fun! I love the NES feeling throughout the game, being a retro-game fanatic. :)

Very cute and polished (the intro is great !) i think with a bit more work on the gamefeel it could be even better

Ooh I like the art ;)
I thought the vertical acceleration was maybe a bit rapid?
Nonetheless, that was pretty cool!

reidrac 2014-04-29 12:15

InfectionTeam: you're probably right! This is the first time I implement that kind of movement (tried to make it feel like it is underwater).

Thanks everybody for the feedback :)

I really liked the graphics in this game and the game play was fun enough.

I just wish there was more.

Very smooth animations!

Great animations. I really enjoyed it.

simple idea, but pretty fun. It's always nice to blow shit up, good job :)

A really nice game!

One minor thing I noticed though was this: There were two submarines shooting at me from left and right and I moved up and dodged the bullets, but each of them went straight past the other sub. I think if they would also hit other submarines and not just the player that would be awesome!

Green Lightning: it's a good idea, also the enemy submarines shouldn't go through the mines. I didn't have too much time to work on these details!

Thanks for you comment!

Nice little shoot em up. Good job.

Fun game. Not much of a challenge if you just coast along the bottom and grab treasures. I like following my torpedo :)

whiterabbitgames 2014-05-03 11:10

Good game, I played over half an hour with it :D

mrbungle 2014-05-09 22:08

Beautiful, beautiful pixels. A well polished little game.

Nice idea and great graphics. Would be nice to have some goals, maybe destroy all mines or all enemies or get all treasure chests + more levels with increased difficulty.
