Nice concept. Got a little confused with what I was selecting with the right hand, but with on each run it got easier.

ironleonem 2015-04-21 08:45

Absolutely stunning game! Very well done

Great idea and nice graphics. Very hard to play though.

Really like it! Controls were quite hard to get, but idea is cool. I think that it would be great to make everything smaller, so you can see all map.

The game it's to complicated for me haha. It's has a great art and a good idea. I really like the robot design. Good job!

Nice game! The idea behind the mechanic is great, but a little too hard to make it work..
But, in the overall, is a greta game! Well done! :D

Wow your tuto page is like a brain killer :)
But I think it's necessary.

Nice concept :) really hard to manage my both hands in the same time, and tough time understanding the whole mechanics.

Anyway, it's a great concept idea :)

Great graphics and presentation. A little too text heavy at the beginning and even after reading it all, I was confused. hard to pick up but once you "Get it" it is good fun. Great work.

Nice entry, it is a bit complicated, but the theme was used pretty well, also the art is nice.

When I tried opening it on my mac it says "The application can't be opened" ...

lebrokholic 2015-04-23 09:44

Awesome! Entertaining! Magical! These 3 words are the first ones which came on my mind when I played the game you've developed. Keep going!

This is great!
The game offers some non-standard mechanics and decent challenge and is really fun to play. Loved the visual style and the sound as well.
Took a while to get used to mixing genes and watching out for the aliens but it was totally worth it!

What's the lose condition for this game? I play for a while and there is no health bar or anything and suddenly it says "Biological cleanse not achieved" and I have to start over.
Anyway, I like the graphics and concept. It's crazy how many different aliens and weapons you made in that short amound of time.

dnateamld32 2015-04-23 10:04

@simon.parzer there is health indeed, but it's hidden to the player, so you can focus on survive, rather on checking your remaining health.

Thank you, and everyone else who liked our game!

Interesting game! Lacks a bit of feedback and the crafting feels weird at times. However, the variety was good and the graphics were good too (: Well done! Once you get the hang of it it's fun to play.

taviandir 2015-04-23 10:19

Super difficult game!

jalgames 2015-04-23 10:42

I really liked this game! The concept id definitvely quite unique and the graphics are amazing. With some more time, you could make the controls a bit more intuitive, but other than that, the game was really nice!

rudra 2015-04-23 10:48

Very nice game ! Really like the concept and the graphics , Well done ! :)

f-wiktora 2015-04-23 11:20

Wow, that's cool! One thing: the font in the beginning is a bit hard to read (at least in fullscreen).
Nice entry!

nowandstudios 2015-04-23 11:36

Very original. I enjoyed the ammo crafting, so cool!

myachin 2015-04-23 12:50

rules is quite hard to learn
art is great
well done

pvwradtke 2015-04-24 03:29

This is a very polished game, in all aspects. Graphics are top notch, sound is well designed and both interface and controls are great. However, it's a bit hard to figure out the mechanics, and I think it'd be great to have some sort of level progression to guide the player a bit. Other than that, a great start!

hambone88 2015-04-24 03:31

I loved the art!

jaenis 2015-04-24 08:43

Nice game, quite complicated indeed as others have said

dyfer 2015-04-24 12:03

Nice graphics with original ideas of weapons!!

ithildin 2015-04-25 00:44

Cool, original idea and very good graphic style. Congrats! :D

The crafting ammo part is interesting, but in my opinion the controls required for each section make it unnecessarily convoluted. Also, the intro and tutorial screens are a bit painful on the eye due to the colour contrast and text density.

monkfallsinsnow 2015-04-25 06:53

This was great! Can't believe you made it in only 40 hours.

drauthius 2015-04-25 11:18

Very nice concept and game play.

zener 2015-04-25 21:35

Very original concept! A bit difficult to understand, but very cool. Graphics and audio are great!

ueki_shurei2006 2015-05-01 14:37

I like the mechanics, graphics & sound. It's just that it's hard when you have to choose the right genes, learn what ammo does what and avoid enemies all at the same time. Perhaps a description of what each ammo does, and how much damage it does to the aliens, would make it easier.

barkergames 2015-05-02 03:22

Nice job!

2015-05-04 14:02

I like turtles

renatopp 2015-05-06 16:06

The game concept is great but a bit confusing and hard to use, but when you get used to is pretty cool. Congratulations for you game.
