Love the graphics, how each pixel is visible... Great work...
597 was my score...
I did notice that the projectiles have some extra pixels at the edge of the sprite when fired in certain directions (like right) and the hitbox seemed a little big...

Music is pretty well fitting too, and the sounds are not harsh or annoying...

Really great look to it. I just wish you could hold down the mouse button to shoot repeatedly, too much clicking. Maybe one alternate/powerup weapon would have been nice to add some variety. Graphics 5 stars, nice and distinctive look.

The art and music are awesome as well as the dynamics! Probably opponents are too large and move too fast for such small screen, especially wasps. Some indication of being hit would help too because it's hard to understand when I've successfully escaped attack and when I was hit.

Nice game! :) Really like the pixel-art-work! Slick font too. Everything seems to work really well.

One thing though: probably use a different key than "fire" to start over when you die. (I immediately skipped to see what score I got; around wave 14.)

[+1 for using Phaser ;)]

This game looks very good, and plays well! I like the sound effects of the creatures when they die, also.

I wish there were plain arrow key controls in addition to WASD, for those of us with non-standard keyboard layouts.

Really like the graphics here! There wasn't really any innovation at all, but the controls were really satisfying.

Cool game! I only wish there were some alternative form of combat - the gun seems a bit lacklustre later on.

My hand got tired of clicking, then I gave up. Some more variation would have been nice.

Lovely graphics and audio. Fun to play. Good job!

Whoa rough night in the jungle!
it got very hard once the wave start immediately filled the screen :-)
Agree that additional weapon/powerups would have been awesome.

Love the graphics! I Included it in part 3 of my Ludum Dare 31 compilation video series, if you would like to check it out :) http://youtu.be/81u-vDEfxwU

Really polished little game, very fun to play and with room for future expansion. Power-ups or loot drops would be cool.

Really great arts & audio, keep up the good work!

Enjoyable game, good job! Having 4 hearts and but losing them gradually rather than in chunks felt weird, but that's not a huge criticism! Well done.

The graphics are amazing, they look really well! The game might be a bit simple, but I just had to try and stay alive for as long as possible.

The ambiance in this game is fantastic. Graphic and music fit perfectly with the game. I like the one hit kill too.

I died after wave 13 just because my finger got tired of clicking. May be wait between the waves is good or after each wave ask the player when they are ready to take on the next wave.

pew pew! Fun game!

rantt 2014-12-11 03:13

Love the pixel-art graphics. The music and sfx are all really nice too. Fun game, great job :)

rottenmage 2014-12-11 13:50

I like the art. It would have been nice to have slightly more varied gameplay, because it lost me quite quickly. Great effort!

slothmachine 2014-12-11 18:18

Nice game. Good gameplay and stylish pixels. :)

erhartmikale 2014-12-11 20:45

Woah, awesome job!! Graphics are unique.. and fast paced gameplay. Sweeet:)

ltyrosine 2014-12-11 22:25

Amazing music!! Cool snes like graphics (you said nes but I guess its more closer of snes!). Gameplay gets a little repetitive after a while.

runvs 2014-12-13 16:25

Cute game! I like the retro graphics and the palette very mucht.
some score screen would be great since i often died and did not manage to look at my score and so couldn't tell how good i was.

alabebop 2014-12-14 16:50

Really nice shooting game! The art is very well done, audio goes right to the mood :)

billrizer 2014-12-14 18:55

Really nice visual effects and presentation.

+ Points for making it super accessible via Phaser.

Would have loved to see different guns and variety in gameplay
