Gameplay is fine, but the sound&music are way too loud.

Like raincole said - sounds are waaay to loud. At first I didn't understand concept - "Why there are shoots without ships?" "I thought it's HP of my planet, not mine.", but then I got it and realized that it was even better idea - that trying to avoid bullets and hit enemies and not taking care about planet. It reminds me stuff like Binding of Issaac, but in space. Good job. On other hand, there are many little stuff to polish like color of health to pick, feedback and effects etc, but c'mon - there was only 48 hours :)

Yeah, I could make some tips what is the goal.
And it was risky to make a game without tutorial or tips. But I see you figured out what is the point ;)

The audio was a bit on the loud side, but this entry was pretty fun! The different kinds of ships gives a good sense of variety.

I really like this game ^^, the graphics are great, the gameplay mechanics are actually rather inventive, i didn't notice i could collect the fallen enemy pieces to get more health.

Actually bookmarked you so i can play again later ^^

Simple and fun, played for a good 10 minutes! But damn those pesky little buggers! So hard to hit! x)

I thought there was no real challenge until one of the big laser beams killed me in one hit :( Awesome game!

The music theme is pretty sick!Great overall!

Really cool game you got here, need to be juiced up and youre done! Music is kind of annoying and some bullet are small to be hit.

Such a simple concept, but what an implementation! Really cool game, so many ship patterns, power-ups, and it's pretty hardcore too. Great entry. Check our game, we've finally updated the link

Pretty fun and good looking but I did not really get the thing with the hp, I absorbed incoming shots? Nice powerups. Sounds were a bit load.
