Was very difficult to figure out the game, but once I did I loved it
Ridiculously fun but difficult at the same time. One of my favorites so far.
Very hardcore! But I like This! Thanks!
I love the minimalist style. Took 3 tries to figure out how to play. Interesting concept and was fun discovering techniques to win. Hard to see enemies and had a tendency to run into the circle enemies.
Amazing.
Really hard, but looks stunning and plays brilliantly.
Very difficult but also a lot of fun to play :)
This game is incredible! I really loved the mechanics! I even don't know what to criticize ;D
This is fun. Very hard at the beginning, but when you get the idea... Great!
Cool idea - the direction in which you move actually changes the rules. Found it to be very challenging!
I love this game, music is great and the speed effects are really cool. Only two nitpicks I have are having to use the arrow keys and mouse wasd for movment would have been nice, and bullets not wrapping like the ship seems odd.
Beautiful graphics. Fantastic use of lighting.
Clever mechanics. Reminded me a little of Braid.
Well-developed gameplay with a variety of elements and mechanics.
Perfectly appropriate sound and music.
A+, no criticisms.
I was slightly confused about the abilities, but I think I got it now. Very clever, really good use of the theme. Excellent gfx and audio.
Overall I really enjoyed the game, was just difficult to get a feel of at first. I also was not fully sure how this fit the connected world theme as your always in the same space.
I thought shooting is automatic when going up. haha! :p
Maybe this is clearer:
1. Move up to enable guns
2. Left click to shoot
Nice game! :)
Like the art style and the concept but very hard :D
Difficult but fun. Very good use of effects.
Well polished with great art, but only being able to shoot while moving upwards is a bit frustrating.
Really good, all aspects of it.
Great fun.
The only thing i felt could have benefitted it was some extra lives on the ship, so you can take some bullets before dying. But maybe thats just because i am bad at it.
Cool idea! I really enjoyed it!
Wow what a great game! I think it's so cool that you have to find this balance between upgrading and attacking! also the music an how it responds to your actions... GREAT!
At first I wasn't sure about the game. I am really bad when rules get too complex all of a sudden and not ease me into the game.
Yet, this game did a pretty good job of explaining through the gameplay (and the instructions) I went in knowing exactly what I should do and how (albeit it was a bit vague that upgrading is done overtime over how long you press down).
While I don' have a score that would award me a gold medal (highest is about 86 I think), it made me feel good as it got better with time (as mentioned you'd need about 15 minutes to get used to the controls. I started with a score of 7 then went to 86 finally).
All in all, great game. I liked the music and definitely liked the sound effects.
Very well done.
Hey guys thanks for all the feedback really appreciate it :)
Great game, great idea. Very nicely done!
Is fun, only I die very soon. Maybe the game could be easier with lives or something like that. Or upgrading ship would also upgrade defense. But apart from that, good job!
That music is so good! Graphics are neat too!
So great ! Very polished ! You rock !
Julien ! Du meet up parisien !
really fun. gj. love the fact that the gameplay goes with the music
Very interesting concept. A bit hard to control, if you don't have the dual sticks. I like the asteroids-style vector graphics.
My favorite game from this LD so far. It's very hard but that's why I enjoy it! Great audio & visuals. I love it.
Once you figure it all out it's a genuinely good.
Loved the theme implementation.
Love the music and concept. It took me a while to figure out.
Beautiful and very difficult :) Nice game !
Great idea! This is lovely :)
Hi there. Looks gorgeous, sounds great. Love the colour change on direction and the different effects for directions. Only seeing enemies while moving also clever. Found it impossible to play though. Good job - but needs to be easier for humans... ;)
Beatiful and fun, I like it !
Pretty crazy idea! I love it.
I'm a big fan of geometry wars. Your game rocks!
It is very difficult to control the ship at the first time. It needs some time to be good. Nice idea and challenging game. Graphics and audio are really immersive. Great art direction.
Would have loved just a touch more space, but great overall
Very unique and innovative! But I think the control is quite hard if the player want to shoot and avoid enemies at the same time. Well done!
A bit hard to figure out but fun
Damn that was hard, I have no idea how you managed that 45k score. My best run ended with a score of 546 or so :(. I would've probably liked it a bit more if I didn't always die so soon. Maybe have each hit take off one upgrade or so, so that you could effectively keep regenerating. That might make it too easy, but some variation of the idea would maybe work.

Took me a while to figure out how things worked, but once I realized what was going on, I exclaimed to myself: "Oh, that's genius!". Really liked the concept, although I was a bit disheartened after seeing your personal best...
