I think this game has a neat concept and well executed. The graphics and sound were both a nice touch, very retro. Great job!

Gameplay is different than I expected for a space shooter, but still quite enjoyable. The graphics all work together really well and the audio is great. Would love to see more variances in powerups if this were expanded.

Gameplay is original, graphics are kind of unique. Cool little game!

Great game! Very unique concept, and the two different ammo types add quite a unique element of choice. I would have liked to have been able to use the "speed-up" bullets more often. Perhaps experiment with scarcity of resources vs. the power of the resource?

Definitely a novel approach to a space shooter - and it worked well. The aesthetic is uncluttered and effective, and nicely carried through the whole game.

Pretty fun and unique concept. I really liked how the stun gun works pushing the enemy back.

I kept wanting to go further to the right than half of the screen. Nice little game!

Very cool retro feel. Far from the average sidescrolling shoot-em up. Great job!

Great game. My only complaint is the control scheme. When in doubt for a 2D game, use ZXCV or QWER.

Loved the graphics. Nice Galaga-esque pixeling.

Love the old school arcade feel, graphics are great. Quite fun to play!

Nice and old-school. I enjoyed the gameplay, but it did get a little repetitive. I managed to reach a score of 1097, but it drained my enthusiasm to get that score.

More variety of enemies would be great in this.

Well done!

Clean nice graphics! :)

This was a nice game but the difficulty curve was kind of strange to me. There was a long time when it was too easy and then all of a sudden it was wall after wall of orange guys and I died :(

Very different feel. Got pretty tough at a good pace.

Nice presentation, though pure dodging without watching the enemies ever die was a bit unsatisfying. Maybe I am a bad space pacifist. :P

nice idea. the barrier in the middle of the screen was a bit weird but apart from that quite fun.

john-vanis 2015-04-29 15:20

It so original. Nice!

jprogman 2015-04-29 20:41

I like the idea to disrupt the enemy formation in order to score points. I hope the more disrupted the formation would lead to bigger points. Nice work.

Nice game, feels a bit weird with the controls to move around but fun to play and well made.

plasmaernst 2015-05-03 11:42

Sweet style! I wish there was a way to destroy/affect the projectiles or to roll the ship to provide less of a target. Also i wonder how it would play if objects going out of the top appear at the bottom and vice versa. Good job!!!

artylo 2015-05-07 21:22

Nice story, decent graphics, nice music, and solid gameplay!

frogcheese 2015-05-09 19:15

Interesting idea, but I must confess it wasn't really my cup of tea. The longer I played the more I wished I could just shoot them all down... I guess me and the pacifist main character just aren't a good match for each other, eh?
