Love the circular and streamlined movement!
Love how simple you made the gameplay with just one key, adds to the challenge . Nice! :)
Nice simple one-button gameplay, nifty! :D
Quite addicting.
Very nice little game! I'd love to play this on my phone, would control nicely as only a single touch would be needed. :)
This is great! I love the simplicity of the mechanics :)
And difficulty ramps up just right.
Really great! Well done! :D
Cool concept, minimal controls. Nice work!
Great fun game! Would prefer a continue and a life system but fun!
I think you have got the difficulty level spot on
The game was funny, I would have liked to restart at the level that I died on. Great job!
Really awesome! Simple, easy to play, addictive, and a PITA.
I really enjoyed this game. Great job.
Pretty interesting thing. Some music would be good.
Simple and cool
Awesome one-button idea. Like it.
Simple but fun! Well executed.
The health bar being yellow on white makes it really difficult to see peripherally - should be yellow on black or something high-contrast like that. The sprite works is decent, and the SFX are about the same - what really kills it for me is the lack of music. Good gameplay, but weak thematic interpretation IMO.
Challenging but fun! Controls a little difficult to master.
I like mechanics, but it's very hard for me
Puzzle games always rate high in my opinon!
Awesome game. I found myself trying to beat my high score.
I really like the simplicity of the controls. A lot more to this game "beneath the surface". ;)
wow! hard and fun! great game.
Great game! Easy to play. I enjoyed it
Cool game. Would have worked great in the one-button compo. Personally I'd like it better if the movement and shooting were given to the player. Congrats!
Really fun (and a very original idea!)
Not ever a fan of repeating levels when dying though...
Nice one. Very addicting ;)
Cool concept and pretty well made. Would work great as a mobile game ;) Nice job!
Fun yet simple.
Cool concept. I really like the simplicity of the controls.
With more polish you might have something here
Solid basic gameplay, nice addictiveness
great little game.. i love the simple mechanic :)
This is fantastic. Basically Super Hexagon with a gun and dodging bullets. Surprisingly balanced - constant struggle of choice between dodging/surviving and destroying the surface to get through. I love it!
Very interesting idea! Minmalistic and yet requires strategy! Graphics and sound effects are a little bare bones but that's to be expected for 2 days of work. All in all I enjoyed it.
Simple, but fun. and really cool concept.
A really nice simple game! Love the one button control, well done!
Simple and nice ! :)
Awesome! This is my favorite minimal game made this LD. I wish the loading time between levels was less ('cause I die a lot). The AI is super smart though. Can't beat it :P
Good job :)
Awesome. Best controls ever.
Minimalist and fun. I really appreciate that game.
Perfect example of a simple game mechanic that works really well. Such a polished game, super congrats to you sir / miss !
pretty hard but great fun. Would love to see this on mobile, nice job! :)
Super addictive! The simplest mechanic for a great game, really well done!
Awesome game for such simple concept! The AI is definitely a plus!
The sound effects could have been a little bit better though.
This is genius game design. And it only uses 1 button! The simplicity of the mechanics is brilhant. Well done, sir!
I enjoyed chilling out any playing this - a simple premise that works well. I'd probably have played for longer if there was a life or checkpoint system, since repeating the earlier levels got old after a while - but I guess this would be more of an issue if there were more levels. Would work great on mobile, being a single tap control scheme .. great stuff.
Not a bad game, but difficult to control.
A simple but great game! Improve the graphics and release it for mobile. I would buy it.
Love the simplicity!
Quite hard :( I couldn't get passed level 3. I liked the simplicity. Wanted to see more levels. Practice, practice, practice, I guess. Otherwise loved the gameplay. Could go on a phone *hint hint*
Not bad. Fresh bullet hell idea =)
But it's bad to pull down player to the end after death.
Nice and fun game! very polished!
Pretty cool, and a unique concept. Don't think I've seen something quite like this before.
I would have liked to have been able to retry the level, instead of starting over from scratch. After a dozen attempts or so I managed to get to Level 5.
I love one-button games ! Quite hard, I wish you'd add more lives, or a checkpoint system (it was boring to start from the beggining each time). Otherwise I love it :D
Nice and original game, good job :)
Simple, hard, fun.
The gameplay is really simple and fun! The controls were hard to master at first but I got the hang of it after 2-3 levels. I'd love to see more content added and please do make a mobile version! Good job, keep it up.
This is a great one button game idea! Nice work. The difficulty curve feels just right for me.
This game is simple but fun. BUT The Permadeath (you must restart every time you lose is very annoying).
Solid game! I had a lot of fun with it. Only got to level 6. The mechanics were fun once you got into it. Would play 50 levels of this but would want the game to save per level :)
Really interesting concept. Super simple to pick up, hard to master. Nicely done!
Cool game with a nice, simple mechanic, reminds me of super hexagon. Smooth design, good job!
Just needs some juice like flashes and camera shakes to pump the gas -- solid design!! :)
Very nicely done!
Challenging but fun game. I included it in part 16 of my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/ruvs0qoO4zU
I made it to level 6 - wow this is hard.
Awesome game! With a single button, you have been able to create a fully working game mechanic, and it is fun!
Audio is great, graphics are good, and it may lack only one thing: explosions :D
The Flappy Bird of breakout games: everything with just a single button/action, I love it!
