Interesting idea, but it's very devoid of much purpose, to be honest. I like the pun "beneath the SURFACE," though, that was very clever. The controls felt a bit stiff, and the collisions were not very likable, as many times I'd die on the corner of something that I did not think I was hitting. 7/10
Hehe... I also thought to make it about the Surface. Like the visuals, great colors. But I couldn't hit stuff, it felt random. So yeah, the controls need more work.
The controls + collision weren't too good, but other than that this is awesome!
Thanks for the comments guys! I agree that some things could use tweaking, it is my first LD and I was working right down to the wire... Thanks for all your input!
I also imagined MS Surface when theme was announced, so funny idea :)
controls are really hard (movement), shooting is click-fest, collision were not really noticable, also you can hardly tell if you manage to avoid the 'logo' or not - maybe 3rd person camera would be clearer
Nothing too great here. The movement was bad and the aiming seemed rather off. And I was going through and hit something and died but it wasn't apparent what I hit.
Nice idea and visuals, but the controls and collisions felt strange. I'd suggest less drag, a freely moveable crosshair and better bounding boxes.
I liked the idea of going through the monitor. The collisions seem a bit hard to figure out, which made the game really difficult.
Haha beneath the "surface". I laugh when I saw the screenshot, great idea. Love the graphics, but the controls and collision, a bit odd (hard to stay alive...)
Colision it's a bit too weird, but the idea is marvellous and I laught thinking on it, good try overall
Very cool graphics and shattering glass sound effects! Some difficulties with the controls, though.
