Great job) a bit cumbersome, but nice attitude)

I like how the gameplay is pretty self explanatory. Gets quite difficult when the screen starts filling up. Only lasted like 20 seconds on my first run. Great job dude :D

Nice game, little difficult, but great for those who like challenges. I don't know why but it reminds me those kinds of games you got on CD when you bought a PC/Game magazine back in 90s :)

Solid entry, basic but fun. Interesting mechanics, needs a score, because numbers are good and making numbers higher is better!

Nice little game here !
It was a bit rough to play on azerty keyboard but still manageable.

I really enjoyed the variety of ennemies and their different actions and the "shield drop" is a really clever idea.

The delay between click and attack is a bit unsettling and sometimes ennemies are shooting from outside the screen view.

Congratulations on the entry !

I just wanted to take a moment to say thanks for all of the feedback, and for giving my game a try. It really means a great deal!

Great job for your first game! Glad you went ahead and just did it!

Good job very hard game to be good at, and it's fun.

Cool first attempt. I liked the different enemies with different art and attacks. The game felt fluid. The attack move took a while to happen, and the direction it would attack wasn't always easy to figure out - it might be better to make that more clear and directed right at the mouse cursor. Some sounds would make it cooler, too, and maybe some score so you could tell how you did relative to others. I did like the combo moves - very satisfying. Nice job.

@Dobnarr Thank you for trying the game! When you say the direction wasn't always easy to figure out are you talking about the main shield bash or one of the star attacks? Are you talking about the aiming or the animation? Sound was something I wanted to add, but I was unable to add it in time for the Ludum Dare. A score was something I wanted too, actually I intend for there to be a difficulty ramp based on how well the player is doing, but that was another thing that I wasn't able to add in time. I do fully intend to make a post Ludum Dare version of the game as well, so the feedback is appreciated.

Basic but most importantly fun to play. Simple easy fun, nice little time waster, well done! :D

i really like different enemies, need some sort of score system, and i think a bit faster attack animation... Good job

This is really late, but I wanted to say thank you so much to everyone who took the time to play and review. Your feedback is very important and I'll keep everything I've learned here in mind going forward. Have fun, and take care.
