Interesting, but got repetitive quickly, especially with the constant pew-pews.

Very silly, I laughed a lot. It was very difficult to aim, since you both aim and look with the mouse, and you are always moving forwards

I think aiming would be a lot easier if your shots were aimed a bit lower on the screen; once the health bars load up it's very hard to actually see where you're aiming.

I lol'd hard the first time the octopus deathbeamed me.

Nice entry :) The models & textures are well done, and the pew-pew is pretty funny. Though I had a hard time aiming because the bullets weren't being shot from the middle of the screen and there was no crossheir.

The boss' OHKO attack was kind of a bummer but the rest of it was pretty fun.

The lack of a crosshair and having your shots aimed at your score meter took some getting used to and made it harder to learn though

Aiming is too hard, and the sound is too repetitive. But it's fun. I hope you polish it more sometime in the future.

Great feedback! Aiming has been slightly calibrated to better match center-of-screen, should be a bit less frustrating.

... This was.. special :P - The pew pew was funny at first, but very quickly got annoying :P The graphics were good, but the gameplay got repetitive quite fast.

Haha good one! XD But the octopus is almost killing you in oneshot (too hard)

Really liked the mood you set but i felt frustrated by not being able to reduce/increase my speed at will to navigate easier and aim better. Fun nonetheless

Pew pew! :D

Haha, the sounds made me chuckle. Cool that you had a boss! I wasn't sure sometimes why I died, but the overall experience was fun.

Hahaha, that's so silly that it's allready cool :D Great sound effects too. Definetely 5 stars for humor :) Great entry.

Amusing game. I like the PEW PEW lasers. The short draw distance was a bit odd, but otherwise the graphics are good. Seemed to go a bit too fast to control very well, as well. Pretty good overall.

Nice gfx!

icereci 2014-05-03 12:33

Played the Rift Version, felt a bit weird that the model clipped through my head but I liked the Kraken.

It downloaded for like 10 minutes, played for a few seconds then suddenly the web browser acted like I had clicked a link and I got taken to some other page.

I really wanted to check this out, but that was not worth repeating to see what the heck happened. I really like mantas, so I hope this was a good game for those who could play it.
