Nice minimalist shooter. Simple controls and classy color palette.

That's a cute little game:D I always find it difficult to work with c++ to develop games. Good work.

Nice, but sort of simplistic. It could have done with animations and audio as well. I liked the main character sprite, though!

Initially I found it quite difficult, but then I think I found an exploit in that you can camp in the middle of the screen, letting enemies pile up, then just shoot them to get their batteries. However, I see where you were going with the mechanic and the game was literally on theme!

Nice and simple, love the expression of the player character :P

It's simple but it's really straightforward and stuck to the theme really well. It could be greatly improved with the addition of audio and animated sprites. It's a fun little game regardless though.

The controls feel good and the presentation, though a bit "static" because of lack of animations, is great as well. This game is a great Ludum Dare entry.

I found that enemies didn't drop enough batteries, so even if I killed them all, I would lose. Also, they dropped something else that I don't know what it was. A good start that could be expanded upon.

The controls and graphics are fine but the enemies don't change pattern and it gets a little boring.

The game is fine and the controls are good. It was hard sometines to shoot to the little enemies, and keep losing because of that. Otherwise, great job!

I uploaded my gameplay of this game on youtube, you can find it here

Thanks for being part of the stream :)

That was awesome! I too made my game in c++ using SFML. Great job!

I love the expression of the main character and the tiny arena!

Could have maybe used more feedback from hits and running out of energy, I didn't always know if I was doing or taking damage.

Fixing that and adding a little balancing would make this a pretty solid entry, especially considering the language and library.

Making something in C++ in a limited time is not easy. Nice work getting this one out.
