Cool concept - reminded me a lot of Ikaruga.

Cool concept - reminded me a lot of Ikaruga.
I like how life bars are shown for each enemy.
That got pretty overwhelming fast! lol
Good game, but when I click with RMB in web player, it opens up a context menu, so I can't react quick enough
Nice concept, but really hard game :(
Thought of Ikaruga as well ;)
Disabled the context menu in the web version. Thanks for letting me know :)
For those having difficulty getting to the boss: Stick with red so you can ignore the majority of the bullets, and focus on killing the large blue enemies first. They don't shoot directly in front of them, and you do double damage while red.
THANK YOU FOR THE CHALLENGING GAME!!! It seems like a lot of the entries this LD have been on the easy side, and this game does not fall into the "boring" category. Best of luck to you!
Neat! I do think the player's hitbox is a little big for this kind of bullet density, and I found myself staying on red most of the time because using the face buttons made switching awkward.
Great game, WAY too hard, couldn't get that far.
So I can't really do a proper review... :/
Nothing happens after the boss has died, that was a bit disappointing. The boss felt pretty epic with all the bullets flying around you.
waaay too hard, nice idea though
The only thing I found unfairly hard were the bosses fast blue bullets in "phase 1". They killed me more times than I want to admit. On one try there was also an enemy that was so close to the edge of the screen that I couldn't shoot it normally. The player ship is also a tad finicky to my tastes. The shooting sound also got really annoying after a while. Nice little proof-of-concept / Ikaruga-lite anyways!
