I'm not sure I completely understand how I'm supposed to play this game. The controls are given to us at the beginning of the game, but no goals or motives. What are we supposed to be shooting at? What's the goal? I'd be happy to play your game if you elaborate on these concerns.

Sweet game. Has a lot of potential if you want to keep working on it. Just a few things to give feedback to the player. Took me a while to realise shooting the train takes its health down, maybe some graphics of the bullet doing damage to the train. even better, would be cool if you could shoot the individual turrets. Anyway good job!

I feel there's some potential in this game but a few things are so annoying that I have hardly finished the first level. Tell me: how much HP has that f*****g train got???!!! And whose idea was this number?! Ok, maybe it's caused by my unskillfulness but it seemed virtually impossible to destroy it. Luckily, in the end it turned out there are some cheats which might help to win: you can hide behind one of the rocks or stand closely to the train's entrance and you are out of the turrets' reach. It's effective but totally unsatisfying: the game becomes boring because you just stand motionlessly and shoot. Contrary to episodes with train, I have had much fun while fighting with those small robots. This part is quite well-designed and the difficulty level is balanced. Haven't you forgotten to add the "restart game" button? Is it a single use game? Quite big plus is graphics, too. It's simple and very nice. I like especially design of the trains. As I've written at the beginning, a sort of potential is in this game. But it's hidden rather in the robot than train parts. If you eliminate those first ones and develop the second ones, something pleasant may come out of it. Good luck! And remember to reduce the train's HP!
