Frigging laserbeams! Nice one, thanks. :)
Its got friggin sharks with friggin lasers on their head. Someone hold mini me!
Best score 1660, depth 4510!
In my mission to rate all the shark related games in this LD (my game is SUPER LANDSHARK MISSILE ATTACK, see? :P), this is the best one so far :P
Cool collection of juice, and I love the surprise in the one-shot-on-screen mechanic in that I could spam shots if I control my ship just right, though that was risk/reward in itself :) Whether that was intended or not doesn't matter cos it's cool emergent gameplay! :D
Good stuff :)
Cool game. I didn't make it to the bottom. Sharks everywhere!
Liked it!Quite challenging, and I love the graphical style
Haha, love the laser beams. Good job.
Fun game with fun graphics! Challenging and humorous with the horrifyingly horrifying sharks :)
Thanks for the positive feedback! Single shot system was intended but it turned out better than expected.
I liked it! Sharks with laser beams, what more could you want! Only suggestion I have is that the hit boxes on the big shark seemed a little too big. I died sometimes when I thought I would be ok!
Oh the horror! I feel my sanity slipping away!
Also, strangely addictive. I wouldn't have figured out the one-shot-on-screen thing myself, seemed a bit unintuitive for torpedos to work like that, but it made the game interesting.
funny little game, the light-sabre-sharks are legendary =)
Sharks with laserbeams, lol... :)
Nice concept, but it ramps up too fast, imho... Other than that, graphics were fun as well!
As already said... The shark is soooo cool, I really enjoy the style =D Funny little game !
Sharks with frikin lasers attached to their heads!
There's a spot on the screen where you almost never get hurt, I made 2290 points ! Also laser sharks !!!
@thinkster yeah that was a bug with collision for the rotated sharks. I just fixed it and updated the SWF.
Lol you can't really go wrong with sharks with lazers strapped to their heads!!
Lol you can't really go wrong with sharks with lazers strapped to their heads!! Very addictive!
It gets boring when I realized that there's a spot where the shark won't go there because it spawn at the same place and have the same movement. Might trying to add some power ups or collectable to make the player moves more. :)
Nice game :)
@BlazingFanfish I tweaked the shark movement code to fix this issue.
Music would have been nice, but this is an awesome little shooter!
not the greatest game ever made. but +1 for yellow submarine, +1 for laser equipped sharks :D
Glad you have sharks with laser beams. Managed to score 1030. I like how it gets pretty hard to dodge all those sharks.
Got to a depth of a little over 7k units and a score of around 3.5k after a few tries. Would've been cool if the background kept getting darker the farther you went. Some ambient background music would've also worked wonders. Not a fan of the single-bullet-on-screen mechanic, but I guess it added an interesting risk vs. reward mechanic.

I experienced a couple quick depths from sharks when I was close to the edge of the screen. I know that part of the strategy is to try and stay in the middle. It might help a bit though if there is an indicator for where a shark is coming from before it enters the screen. Even if it is for less than a second. Maybe it will make the game too easy? Not sure, but perhaps worth a try? Nice work :)
Good graphics, the sharks are really horribly horrifically horrifying.
Nice game.
What the... I'm not sure what was it, but it was cool! Really simple gameplay but quite addictive! And it's yet another game where I love the bubbles. I guess I'm just a sucker for bubbles. Didn't know that before this jam, so thanks, I guess! Gotta make a game about bubbles myself next time!
Max depth of 5694. Interesting game, adding the lasers to the sharks is a very...unique touch lol.
Very cool, I like the sharks with laser beams and that they come in different sizes! It got a bit frustrating to kill sharks with only one bomb at a time, but getting in close worked well. The difficulty ramping works well too!
Got really difficult! The one shot on screen at a time thing was interesting, since I could try to stay right over a shark and keep shooting rapidly, but in practice I died a lot more trying it than I felt like I benefitted from being able to kill a shark fast. Would be cool if there were markers at certain depths to let you know milestones as you descended.
