Pretty decent game, graphics could use some polish. I would also increase the size of enemy ships, or decrease the size of the arena. Themes are not really expressed as much as they could have been.
Good concept though, and the sounds are pretty cool :D

I'm glad that you like sounds/concept, that was my main goal, actually =)
About themes expression:
- I interpret "two-button controls" as "two ways to control the game" - and there they are, mouse hover and mouse click =) You may think about it as a "zero-button game", as you can complete it without a single click.
- I interpret "growing" as team expansion and difficulty evolvement. As you gather more ships, you have more power, but also you're more fragile and enemies spawn more frequently.
Thanks for feedback!
I enjoyed this quite a bit! Reminds me somehow of Cannon Fodder. :)

I loved how each squad member had a name :D

imo it'll be much better if the plane movement not stiff/depend on grid
i love the idea of the additional plane for life, the graphic for me quite decent, and the music somehow fit it really well :D

I like this, it's a novel mechanic. I didn't find myself using the "shoot together" button much, but that doesn't matter. The music is great.
I really enjoyed this one. It gives it a very personal touch that everyone has names. Nice music and mood too.

I like the names too. I found it a bit hard to control, could never really get past 3 ships.
Fun, like manabreak said the individually named units reminded me of cannon fodder, and the gameplay reminded me of Gradius with maxed out Option.
I did feel like bullets shouldn't collide with each other though.
Tough game, especially when the up & down enemies come into it. I didn't get above five ships. I did want to keep playing though!
I like the innovative idea, but this game is hard to reach an end state. Check out my game if you have time, thanks buddy!

decent work! reminds me some of my childhood game and it is quite hard...
kind of curious how the ai work. they follow rly weird patterns...
I liked the ship stacking, made for quite interesting gameplay when deciding to attack/evade oncoming ships/bullets! Art is pretty, too!

Really nice game, I like the music, it's so nice to hear! The gameplay is interesting, because of the three ships to control, I had a lot of fun with it!
