It is a fun and challenging game. It wreck my brains to control the direction of the ship but luckily button smashing is an efficient strategy. It might be nice to have power ups or something to slow down the spinning of the direction arrow or something to add more variety.

haha, nice entry, sick steering :D

I enjoyed this. That organ track was giving me some serious beach boys "good vibrations" vibes, which was a little weird but definitely not a bad thing. The controls were pretty cool and I didn't find myself getting too disoriented. Challenging but enjoyable :)

hehe, the mechanic is strangle but fun... well done!

Hahaha. Need some time to get used to such controls. This game is quite fun!

Really cool controls! only thing I would suggest is possibly driving either movement/attack depending where the mouse is. :)

Wave 23. Interesting control scheme

Funny little game, the shooting sound get a bit annoying though, but maybe that was because I kept spamming the spacebar to shoot everything in a circle hahaha ^^

Small tip: Let the bullets come out of the cannon instead of the center of the ship?

Interesting way of exploiting the themes and play around the 2 buttons constrain to still be able to move and shoot in any direction.

Wow, this is the first time I see controls like that :D I liked it, makes the game very challenging. Good job mate ;)

Cool little game. nice smooth controls, though when it gets hectic going wrong direction happens a lot :)

Well this actually got me playing for a while. Fun control scheme but once you get a little bigger you can just stay in the middle of the map and spam fire, your bullets are big enough to hit everything and you only have to worry about dodging.

Awesome execution, very funny, well done!

Interesting control! Easy to learn and fun. might be more fun if adding more environment variations, like some walls for hiding or blocking.

Clever use of two buttons controll, makes game fun to play. In overall really solid game and entertaining.

BTW: You can get in the center of the map before next wave and spam space to get rid of most of the enemies, maybe some cooldown could be useful?

Cool game! Pretty hard too, I like a challenge. Only made it wave 9 my first try.

I reached 39 wave and that's it, there was too much enemy to kill them, they didn't dissapear... Very nice game, I had a lot of fun with this, especially with that controls which gave me a lot of fun! Nice idea with theme, graphic is simple and cool, I enjoyed playing c:

I like the way you used the two button controls here! It made the game a little more challenging because the arrow and the cannon weren't pointing the same direction. I had a fun time playing. The graphics were pretty simple, but well executed, and the controls were smooth. Cool game!

Interesting mechanic. I surprisingly got the hang of it very quickly, then found out that I can just keep spamming my cannon which made the game super easy. Really fun idea, but I would definitely put some limitations on that.

blobo 2015-12-19 20:22

Pretty nice game overall. it was easy to just button mash though.

weloxux 2015-12-22 15:00

Very cleverly thought up controls, I keep mixing up shooting and moving direction!
