Nice one! Your best LD entry. A couple of bugs, but not too bad. (Full coil stops shooting, and you can't crouch). Good work!

We watched your stream on twitch! Good job :)
Hey! Thanks @Rocketship for being there! Although there was only up to 3 viewers at once. :3
@Boodog Yeah, this is the first time I actually got to complete a Ludum Dare game! And I've fixed those bugs a long time now! :3
Fun little game. I feel like the hitbox of the runner is a bit too wide. there were a few times where I was clearly ahead of an eyeball, but it counted as a hit. :\
@Tritax Ok, sorry, about that! Will work on it tomorrow!
I like the general "side-scrolling Space Harrier" idea, but the pace doesn't quite match - it just doesn't feel like there's enough to shoot at, and my bullets travel so slowly that I'm not sure I could hit much of anything if there was.
Also, Comic Sans doesn't seem like a proper fit for the game's whole "fighting aliens" theme. Maybe you should find a nice sci-fi font to use instead.
@Ryusui When you beat a level, and you upgrade coil, and shoot, those two things carry up your shooting speed, and if you ever reach level 8, you should have maxed out everything to get a chance at winning! Can you recommend any fonts I should use? Or if not I'll just try one for myself, thanks for the vote though! :D
Hi there. Like the look and feel of your game. Amazing amount of extra features like badges and skill increases between levels. Good job!
@mrexcessive Hi there too! I'm glad you do! I spent most of the time on these aspects as well! But no matter how many game fixes I fix, each other person still find something different wrong to comment on, on the newgrounds page!
the main character was pretty creepier than the eyes, but other than that it was pretty sweet. once i got the shooting upgrades i was godlike!!!
i wish the gravity was a little stronger tho
@Simplexcity
Hey! Thank you for rating my entry! I always wished the gravity was stronger, but because of the planet, not even the anti-gravity we add when we upgrade jump would help us much! :( Blame the planet! XD
Nice work!
Oh the misery, the pain!! Really enjoyed the funny audio. Challenging and fun! Nice entry!
Fun game. I like the music. Getting shot with boogers is funny.
Hey man! This game has a really sweet beat, but we all know that music isn't the only element that makes a game. This is a solid entry though, the idea could be fleshed out and the art could use more polish, but at the end of the day it is still a decent game.
Stress of music! But the enemies are very funny!
Thank you all guys for rating my entries, and I'll be sure to rate those of you who I haven't already! :D
Too easy... I think eyes should go much faster over the time. Can just hold down the button for continuous shooting. Art and sounds need a lot of love.
Crouch and shoot, that's my key to victory. The voice over at the end was funny.
@Rage Paint Well at level 8 the eyes come much faster, if you made it that far though! O.o
@Budaniel Great idea! Now I'd be able to "beat" it out now!
crouch + shoot = win!
Great use of parallax scrolling in the backgrounds. The pacing is a bit slow, but well done all around.
@TedBrown Yeah a previous user told me about that solution, although I still did not win the game in the end.
@waynaul Thanks! The pacing speeds up after each level, so I won't know if you made it that far!
It is okay... It is nice to be able to upgrade your char after each wave, but the difficulty curve must be adjusted, as the first waves are too easy.
They stat easy, but on level 8 it's too hard to beat it, for some though.
For some reasons the controls didn't work for me (I tried shooting, WSADing, making sure the game has focus...), so I cannot really play your game. Leaving without score. >.<
Uh, alright, the controls finally responded in the Newgrounds version (weird, because these two should be the same...), but I wasn't particularly impressed with that, anyway. First of all, there were these annoying eyes that land on ground, making them immune to shooting; I could stand that, but with way too wide character's hitbox they're pretty much impossible to avoid when in large groups. Also, the sounds are definitely too loud and annoying compared to the music. >.<
Well, at least it has upgrades and achievements, I guess? ^^"
