This would probably be a little more fun if it were sped up a little. I did enjoy the powerups and when I had a crazy amount of bullets around me.

Nice game! The shooting sound did get a bit annoying after a while, and the frame rate was a bit low, but the graphics were nice, and it was pretty fun to play!

Nice. Simple. Objective is clear. Audio gets a little weird with the multi-shot. Nice visuals. Liked the text/font. good job! :D

Very nice!
Just wish the blob would move faster, feels so cumbersome - which is probably the intended behaviour

Little slow, but rather awesome nonetheless!

This game has a great vibe it, I really like the mood and some of the art. I agree that I think it would be better if it was sped up, and perhaps if the entities in the game were a bit bigger. Great job overall!

As other said, its a little slow. I also feel there is way too much space with how small things start. I found a few bugs too. One was some bullets didn't get cleared from the screen when I retried I was able to walk into them after. The other issue is the sound effect for shooting seems to multiply if you have a multishot. It was really hard to hear the background music over the volume of the stacked sounds. Other then that its a cool concept and well done.

Fun!! I also think it will be better if it's faster!!

Game needed a whole lot of speeding up. Apart from that though, good game! Love the visual effects.

I love the upgrades~ =D Enemies spawning only from the corners did make things a little on the easy side.

It's a funny and addictive game. A bit larger (and more detailed) graphics would be nice.

But it's a very cool game!

Fun little game, I really like the idea of getting bigger for each enemy you kill. It's a nice natural way to increase difficulty. I think it needs to move a bit faster and the player needs to grow faster. Solid effort.

Very fun variation of this type of game. I especially liked the power-ups, most of all the cross-shot. Good work!

Great job for 24 hours. I liked filling the screen with waves of shots but the shooting audio became a bit oppressive.

Wasn't too bad. Needs an upgrade system, rather than powerups I think. Fun, though.

Pretty fun! A little more variety would be cool, but it was very good! Nice work!

Nice and simple game! I liked the persistent effects on the ground, which definitely helped show your progress through the game. I read your blog and it's really good progress for just one day of work, it's a shame you didn't have more time to work on it.

I think a couple of tweaks would have gone a long way, speeding up both the player's movement and the enemies would improve the pacing of the game.

I would have preferred a mute SFX over a mute music button, but thanks for adding it. Adding a few different shoot sound effects to just randomize through would have gone a long way to improve the audio of the game, it sounded like you were using SFXer so a couple of different mutated variations of the basic shoot sound should have been pretty easy.

Overall I'm pretty impressed you got this done in just a day, so good work!

As people said a speed up would have been good. But good work.
