Fun arcade game, wonder what it would be like with retro graphics
Sort of interesting, but it got old quickly. Was not fond of the constant bleeping in the background.
The audio really fit the minimalist graphics, very cool game overall
gamejolt link worked for me, the other one didnt :( Cool game, although it feels like it needs some polish. I like the idea of a drone playing just one note and then when you shoot other notes are played on top of the drone! Maybe that idea could be further integrated into the game? And maybe the note of the drone could change pitch so that it wont become annoying. The note could change pitch based on how fast you are moving or some other condition :)
Not too shabby! Could use more work on the gameplay, maybe upgrades and some polish.
I like the audio effects, visual aesthetic and the trails idea seems quite original, although in practice it tends to push the player into standing still and thus having no trail to hit.
Maybe a version in which the player can't shoot and can only use their trail to damage enemies could be interesting? Or it might just be frustrating. Destroying enemies with your trail is a neat idea though.
It felt like there should be some visual effect when an enemy is destroyed, even just a little puff of particles or a brief flare of light, and an audio response of some kind.
Love the atmosphere and the mechanics are well implemented. The framerate was suffering a little, but not to the level of making in unplayable. Good work!
Really like the audio feedback in this game! :) Controls could use some work though because the player feels a bit unresponsive.
Fun game. Nice job.
Kinda fun, but yeah it's just the same thing over and over. I like the bouncing off of walls and the classic go-through-one-end-and-come-out-the-other mechanic. The drone in the background was a bit annoying and I found it off-putting to have the game over screen say "You are dead." Considering this is a minimalist game that doesn't really have lifelike characters, it seems strange to use that instead of "Game Over." Also, It would have been nice to see some death animations and sound effects for the enemies to give more of a sense of satisfaction from killing them.
In the next version I would like to see a more responsive handling. In general, the game is normal.
Minimalistic graphics and sound - which is cool. Controlls described sufficiently. Good job.
Name goes with the game since that effect its a cool thing. Loved the health ui though it needs to be more challenging for me but its a really cool game.
Fun game . Love the simplicity.
Cool mechanics. Would love to see a 4-player versus version of that game. You could add a lot more things and make this a really cool couch game bro! And visual feedback, the audio was not so good, the constant beeping sounded weird. Your game could evolve and be quite interesting, and I really like that :D
I like the idea to show health bar in this way
The Web game runs smooth and it is fun.
Relax game
a good idea. melodiously shooting))
Clever design on displaying the mother ships health. Also love the tones playing with every shot
good game , it might need more enemies or actions to happen over time as it kinda get boring maybe with going musical style and having more different of trails and harmonies or u can go full arcade fast paced style , but good work
