Nice, well thought out, intelligent game.

Some balancing issues... it starts slow... 1 on 1, after 4 rounds I got hit by 4 subs at once!
It reminded me of the old ZX Spectrum classic, high-noon! :)
Good job!

Fun game! But pretty hard. I barely got past level 1.

Technical question - Why did you make your game download images rather than just bake them into the jar or with the download?

Awesome game, although it is ridiculous. I died after 10 seconds of playing it after a sub came from in front and a missile(?) hits me

While the game itself is quite entertaining to play, there isn't anything special about the game that made it stand out. The graphics is decent, there is no lag, but...
It just doesn't have uniqueness to it.
But a fun game is a fun game. I'll give that a credit :D

Wow! Only 25 Kb? I love it!

Level 1 goes on for ages, hit boxes are little big, and some of the upgrades don't server enough of a purpose. A little disappointing to not have any audio too. If this if your first jam game, great effort!

Nice game. Enjoyed playing it.

$58 and Level 2... love the boss and the particle effects! Might want to put instructions at the start (for the controls and stuff).

Wow, this game is really fun! The mechanics are solid and the upgrades are definitely a plus!

One thing I think I'd like to see is a recolour of the enemy's bullets, just so it's a little more obvious which ones are yours and which ones are theirs once you get to the point where you have quad shooter or minigun and bullets are just flying everywhere! Also, the pacing seems a little off as in the first level was really long, but as the game continues it seems like the boss comes earlier and earlier?

Overall, this game is awesomely fun, even without little extras like audio :]! Awesome work :D

Really challenging ... but don't you think the gravity is a bit too strong for a game with a underwather-setting?

Quite hard, couldn't get behind level 1, also some lags. Nice nevertheless.

Cool game. Liked the look of it. Good use of particle effects. Very challenging.

Strangely aesthetically pleasing.
Pretty hard too. Sweet game overall.

I couldn't see my sub!!

teamkwakwa 2014-04-30 12:48

Yay, I made it to level 11! 499$ left, had managed to equip armor 4, engine 4 and minigun 1 (and I was sparing for minigun 2 :p). Simple, yet effective. It was very fun playing it!

eckcz 2014-04-30 12:55

AAAAAAHH died at Lv11. It's some kind of hardcore after like Lv7. It's really hard and fun to avoid the enemy missiles :D

Nice game, pretty funny

terraco 2014-05-01 00:25

Nice work

Nice little game but a bit monotonous. Youd shoul add some powerups, other weapons. Maybe you did but Level 1 seemed to be forever...

hyouko 2014-05-04 15:57

Made it to level 2. I liked the sub-customization aspect, but the way the health was set up it wasn't super clear how armor works (does it block 0.5 damage per bullet?)

Found it a bit amusing how every enemy sub apparently carries exactly $1. Times must be tough in the Land of Red Submarines!

It's too hard and repetitive in my opinion. Controls are ok, graphics too. :-)
