This is pretty amazing! Are you going to make a mobile version of it too?

cryunreal 2014-08-26 07:38

Yes, of course! Android version is sure to be)

atta 2014-08-26 07:42

Great artwork! Liked so many weapons type and funny graphic!

jaspreetdhanjan 2014-08-26 17:45

Fantastic game. Everything from the art to gameplay to the sound was really done to a high standard.

techblogogy 2014-08-27 15:33

Really cool visuals and game is really fun.

teoacosta 2014-08-27 15:56

So much content for 48 hours! Well done. Great art style :D

primitiveconcept 2014-08-27 15:57

It took me a while to figure out how to connect planets (collect resources?) but once I figured that out it was pretty fun. I love the little animals ... especially the one with the banana-shaped head, haha!

eigen 2014-08-27 16:07

Pretty rad content for 48 hours. Something about this reminds me of the Halloween Harry game.

doctor-broccoli 2014-08-27 16:08

It's a cute little game, but it got old really fast seeing as every world was a bit samey.

udo 2014-08-27 16:12

The art looks amazing on this, but I can't get it to run right (Firefox or Chrome on OS X, Unity plugin installed). The music starts playing, but then I see only this:

Great game!
But a little boring at first, you can only press "space" and go forward.
This game need more difficulty

jahmaican 2014-08-27 16:19

You did good. Have some vodka.

cryunreal 2014-08-27 16:23

Sirry but this game was made in 72 hours (jam Entry))) I publish build for android (apk), windows standalone and web(fixed aspect) after a few minutes!!! )))

hemuuuli 2014-08-27 16:24

Really nice work from the artists, the gameplay gets quite repetitive but great work anyways!

yodamaster 2014-08-27 16:26

Very professional.

xgor 2014-08-27 16:30

Nice presentation but really lacking in depth. Spamming space and walking right isn't that exiting.
Also it feels so wrong to see virtual buttons in a game that dosn't even have a smartphone version yet.

mechanicmoon 2014-08-27 16:33

The character design is very well done, the game is fun and sounds good

loren 2014-08-27 16:34

nice art and design :)

nonentheless 2014-08-27 16:36

Nice presentation!

rjhelms 2014-08-27 16:36

Very nicely polished, and a really funny visual style. One of the best I've played so far!

I shouldn't figure out how to switch weapons with the keyboard, though. Maybe update the description with instructions about the key controls?

bg1987 2014-08-27 16:37

Really fun

headmade 2014-08-27 16:37

Great graphics and art design. I love how the guy smokes under his helmet, and how those fish creatures look.
Gameplay is repetitive but the item shop made me play for a bit more.

akymos 2014-08-27 16:41

Well done!

sunflower 2014-08-27 16:53

Pretty polished and silly, but monotonous at the same time. Also, I didn't know telecommunication was *that* aggressive business.
(personally, I initially expected violence-free game, and was rather disappointed to find out it's not ^^")

danbo 2014-08-27 17:12

There's certainly a lot of meta-stuff here around the act of holding right and mashing space...

Quite slick, either way.

isaacl-balogh 2014-08-27 17:28

The art and audio is really good. The gameplay was simple and addicting though I'm not entirely sure how killing things connects planets. Putting in a jump or dodge would be really useful too so that players can attempt to get out of the way of bullets.

soulgame 2014-08-27 17:57

Nice realization for such a short time! Gameplay is a bit repetitive but that goes along with this kind of hardcore shooter :) Great work.

glaydur 2014-08-27 17:59

Nice game overall! The controls were all over the place though.

borgi 2014-08-27 17:59

The theme was a bit weird but nice addicting gameplay!

axebane 2014-08-27 18:03

WOW! This game is amazing for something that only took 72 hours!! I was particularly impressed by the vast array of weapons, although I didn't get to try very many of them out because it took a little while to get enough materials. Anyway, very very good work on this!

micdoodle8 2014-08-27 18:04

Lots of content, gun types, levels. Textures and sounds/music are great. Nice job.

radmars 2014-08-27 18:06

There's a lot going on here in terms of systems and content which is commendable! The gameplay though is very bland and the tactics don't seem to really change. It's just a lot of graphics skinning the same thing. It only seems to get harder because you throw "more" at the player rather than "different". Well done getting such a robust game and menu working in such a timeline though!

crocantidepollo 2014-08-27 18:08

Nice graphics! A bit too easy maybe.

bio-bob 2014-08-27 18:22

Really well made! I feel like there could be more controls like jumping and maybe reloading as well as having ammo as a resource, but overall seems like a very well polished and fun game. It also seems to have endless levels, pressed the pan button for a minute or two and managed to get up to level 2000... So maybe another goal, if this is to go further could be to add an optional end game, so players can level up until they're ready to finish or keep going for as long as they want.

hb3p8 2014-08-27 19:08

Funny game)Awesome artwork!

muumeroinen 2014-08-27 19:29

Wow..

jharler 2014-08-27 19:29

This was a fun, albeit grotesque experience, haha. Well done.

alpha_rat 2014-08-27 20:37

Great art and sound! I like the vast array of weapons even if the gameplay is a bit repetitive

dragonxvi 2014-08-27 21:40

Art' 'n animation's gorgeous but gameplay's fairly repetitive. A bit more interesting enemies 'n levels would help considerably. Also, I take it it's procedural levels? The level select screen just went on forever :p Pretty impressive for 72 hours overall though, congrats!

georgebroussard 2014-08-28 10:21

Solid entry for 72hrs. Would like to see combat paced a little differently and less spammy. I basically just ran right, held fire, and never worried. Very good base for a game, though.

mechabit 2014-08-28 19:02

nice production values for such a short time

stasss 2014-08-28 19:18

Awesome... A very very lot of work were done! Looks great. Congrats!!!

goosetickler 2014-08-28 19:23

Wow you guys made a lot of content, would have a liked a little more depth in gameplay. I also enjoyed the funny style and theme you guys were going for, good job!

orangeez 2014-08-28 20:26

Nice game! The amount of content is pretty impressive too - I scrolled to, like, 300 levels and it still felt like there's even more. Well done!

honcho 2014-08-28 22:15

SOO MANY LEVELS! Love the artwork!

savethejets1 2014-08-29 01:02

The graphics were really great.

chuigum 2014-08-29 04:57

Love the art style, very cool game!

randomnamegenerator 2014-08-29 05:08

Really fun game! Played this for way longer than I should have lol. Great job!

ninjascript 2014-08-29 05:27

Amazing stuff for 72 hours. Took me way too long to figure out how to switch weapons. The resource distribution could have been a little more even, I wasn't able to upgrade anything for way too long a time. But I like this game! you should continue development.

crazi456 2014-08-29 05:38

Awesome art, great music! Great work!

william_edwards 2014-08-29 10:16

+graphics

Gorgeous.

The theme seemed a bit tagged-on though, as though this was a game you'd make whatever the theme!

Very very racy pace though :)

otrorainteractivo 2014-08-29 16:21

For some reason Chrome crashes everytime I try to play but after a while it did open. Cool game, it will do well on mobile

jukimv1986 2014-08-29 17:38

Damn hardcore!! But nice gameplay , good graphics and smooth controls. Good work russian friends!

badlydrawnrod 2014-08-29 19:46

The cartoony graphics were pretty cool, although you did spill a large number of bottles of ketchup across my screen a few times.

frr171 2014-08-29 20:24

Insane amount of content for so little time!

eruiz00 2014-08-30 09:28

Great ske animations and graphics, and got a laugh from me (specially that dogs...) however, it's not contra. Very professional, indeed.

jimmypaulin 2014-08-30 16:01

Totally hilarious, I LOVE the 'enforced connection' theme. The artwork and sound is brilliant, it wasn't what I'd call a "deep" experience, but my belly laughs certainly were!

hbocao 2014-08-30 17:54

Amazing content for 72h! Kudos! Spectacular art! Great job!

kaa 2014-08-30 19:22

Very nice brutal game! Molodci

someone 2014-08-30 20:54

That was awesome. Really well polished and good fun.
I got to the 14s with everything unlocked before it got too repetitive.
Starting next to an invisible wall that enemies ignore was odd.
The coal resource seemed to be missing its graphic.
Also the resource numbers look like they refer to the wrong resource due to how they are aligned.

malf 2014-08-30 23:26

nice art, but i don't know if i'm missing something , the only viable strategy seems to be to go foward firing :?

phocker 2014-08-31 15:19

Pretty good game. I really like the main character, and pretty good use of the theme. It got a bit repetitive and some of the enemy ai could be better. But, expected for 48 hour compo. Nice job.

gwa 2014-08-31 16:16

I love sidescrollers

lkr 2014-08-31 20:54

Really nice graphics and sound, and a shop with weapons and upgrades adds a lot to the variety.

Also liked how different the planets were, with different backgrounds and enemies. Impressive for such a short time in development :)

vividhelix 2014-08-31 22:20

Awesome graphics!

kortuga98 2014-08-31 23:21

There was definitely a LOT of work put into the graphics and polish of the game which I really appreciate, but ultimately the gameplay is really lacking. Every planet is walk right or stay alive (or the resource thing which I didnt understand), and the only choice you have is deciding whether to shoot left or shoot right.

h1s2 2014-09-01 20:08

I sure played this game long! The balancing isn't perfect yet but I really enjoyed it.

spotco 2014-09-02 05:18

I was scrolling right on the map and was like "dayum that's a lot of levels". Then I read infinite space. 10 infinites out of 10.

Oreganik 2014-09-02 05:43

Better controls (e.g. "how does this work?") and more clarity on where resources are acquired (or even what they are) would only improve an already awesome jam game. Well done! I haven't seen that much blood and guts since Mortal Kombat I.

saschanarr 2014-09-02 11:28

Amazing graphics, but the gameplay lacks a bit and gets boring fast. Great polish though, and getting a complete shop/upgrade system in place in such short time!

s0rax 2014-09-02 12:15

It's a beatiful game, the sound, graphics, everything is perfect !

lowcade 2014-09-02 15:23

The graphic is nice and funny. Great work with the guns. Congrats.

strong99 2014-09-04 09:41

Neat artwork! Very nice. Very brutal indeed.

emak 2014-09-04 12:08

great entry! very long and addictive!

2hitmatt 2014-09-04 13:26

I dig the weapon progression and the difficulty curb is nice too :D

arhpositive 2014-09-05 17:14

Nicely done, a great entry, although a bit loosely themed. Keep up the good work. I found the gameplay highly enjoyable.

brokenbeach 2014-09-06 11:50

Well done on the entry. The art is pretty well done. However I though it got old fairly quickly. It could use another element to add some depth to it.

Otherwise, good work guys.

dohan 2014-09-07 14:38

Really fun entry, the ammount of aliens and weapons is impressive. The stone/coal/whatever resource seems to be invisible.

elefantopia 2014-09-11 04:00

Fun game! The graphics were humorous and the audio was very serious. Too bad I did not have enough resources to buy new weapons.

ragepaint 2014-09-12 04:29

Awesome looking main character. Nice touch with the bullets coming out where his gun barrel was located.

sketchygalore 2014-09-13 23:24

I can tell the artist had a good time with this one!
I did run into what looked like a gamebreaker, though. The planets seem to be procedurally generated on the map, and after about 10 planets, the next planet was placed too far away for me to connect to, so unless there was a way of increasing the range that I missed, it was impossible to continue.
Good work with the visuals/audio, though!

jcsirron 2014-09-14 00:10

This was a really fun game! I love how some of the enemies just explode into chunks of meat.

alexfili 2014-09-15 18:58

The gameplay is a bit mindless but I've seen mobile games not as good as this selling for a few pounds, so having this as a free game is a pretty good deal. I do like the art style and the quirky sense of humour. One of the most fun LD games I've played
