Nice work! The game moves really smoothly and I like that the camera rotates with you. The mini map is super useful and looks great too.

It's good ! but it's very hard !
I like it a lot! Nice level desing, a good complexity and awesome mechanics! Good job!
I needed to get used to the camera, but it's kind of nauseous and needs tweaking. Overall, it's a pleasant, simple game.
This game seemed impossibly difficult at first but once I got the hang of kiting the enemy robots and shooting them while backing up it felt a lot more fun, though I still wasn't able to pull off a victory. I really liked the mechanic where you could kill the enemies but generally not recover enough power to have made it worthwhile
Fun game! Disorienting, but fun! haha My only problem was I couldn't really tell if I was shooting sometimes. The lasers should have a visible pathway somehow, in my opinion. Still enjoyed though! :)
@modalmodule The lasers should be visible. There should be lines appearing when you shoot them. What platform did you play the game on?
Btw, thanks for the awesome feedback everyone! :)
Really nice design balancing the need to kite enemies and keep distance vs. minimizing distance to the next battery pickup. But I also found it quite hard as well; perhaps stages of increasing difficulty would be helpful.
Interesting game, although very hard!
The graphics were clear enough to see what was going on, and the minimap was very useful!
Having to collect 10 solar panels was perhaps a bit much, considering how fast your power drains. A suggestion could be to lower that number a bit. Then it would be a viable strategy to try to avoid the enemies, instead of having to fight them for energy. I think I hit a bug as well: When I collected solar panels, and then died, the next time I respawned, I got the "victory" message (and restart-button).
The explosion animation was a nice touch :-)

Interesting and elaborate game , but I had some troubles with shooting and moving :\
I liked this. The camera rotation was confusing because of the minimap being fixed, but was still found it fun moving around.
The fact that the maps are randomly generated makes this game unique !
Good controls and really like the addition of a minimap. The graphics and audio were clean and did their job well. I found the enemies a bit too hard to kill, would have preferred if they took fewer shots. The death animation was also a bit long. Still, great work!
This game was nice. I liked everything in it only one thing that made my head turning, the camera rotation ! It was really bad that the camera was tracking the position and the rotation of the player. You should make it only follows the position of the player, and this by using a standard asset script or by watching some tutorials like this one : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFQhpwc6cKE Good game at overall !
The game was pretty cool and pretty enjoyable for such a simple game. I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the camera, but it's interesting. Kill the enemies was kinda hard. But I played on a touchpad making aiming a bit harder. Overall pretty enjoyable!
Thanks for the feedback everyone! :)
I made a new version of the game recently trying to incorporate all the feedback I got from you.
The main change is that it has an options menu, which lets you play without the camera rotating with you when you turn.
The options menu also lets you change the difficulty by changing the amount of damage enemies do etc.
The other change is that the new version lets you restart without having to watch the animation of you exploding, because it's a bit annoying having to wait for it to finish before you can restart.
If you want to play it you can play it here: https://wh05herlock.000webhostapp.com/ld39-post/index.html.
Thanks :)
