Simple but cool.
Mark has continued his 48h tradition of cloning Alien Flux magnificently. ;) A well rounded endeavor with a nifty mini map system.
Nice graphics, but this isn't innovative and gets repetitive quick.
Nice game, good thing it got music (although it got quite repeative after a while). Options to restart level/quit instead of simply quiting on esc would be good. The Z & X buttons worked fine :)
Fits the theme well. I dont like much the gameplay but I supose thats a matter of taste. Sound is nice and graphics are correct.
Another asteroid clone... Still, it's very playable...
I'm definitely keeping this game for further playing.
Idea is ok, but the gameplay feels a bit frustrating. You could try to improve handling of the ship somehow. Currently I feel it rotates a bit too fast so that it becomes harder to aim at enemies. Alternatively faster bullets might help out a bit. I think I looked at the map probably more than the actual scrolling field. :) Theme fits quite well.
very cool. instructions would have been sort of nice, as when I started I didn't really know what was going on for a while.
Already talked to you in the channel about the game; Get me a link to the version with zooming, tho, I wanna try it. :)
The separately scrolling background was a very nice touch.
Looks very nice.
The secondary shot is very hard to use, since it moves slower *and* has to hit a moving target. It might be interesting to beef up the secondary shot, but require multiple shots (possibly from multiple angles) to kill an infected cell; that way chasing the bacteria is important and not just a distraction. Or maybe have infected cell shoot out bullets you have to strafe around. Anyway, the game is already pretty amusing as-is.
Looks good, sounds good, plays good. But somehow it's a bit repetetive.
Excellent game!
I liked the idea of different weapons for different creatures. The on screen radar was great.
I also liked the inertia of the ship, but maybe the turn speed was a little too fast.
It would be nice if the bacteria-shooting gun was used more often. Maybe there could be more bacteria, but they would move slower and not straight towards the next cell?
Good fun! Will have to play it again later :)
Good music although a bit repetitive. The game starts fine but I was unable to pass level 7, yet! :-)
Nice little game, pretty good fun, but then shooting things always is !!!
niiiice :)
i like how the infection sound blends with the music! very fun..made it to level 7 then lost 1 cell short..drat..gg
