Interesting idea. But after losing all 3 hearts, it seems I can't do anything (not even restart or quit?).

Interesting idea. But after losing all 3 hearts, it seems I can't do anything (not even restart or quit?).
If you click the 'tutorial' button on the main menu, then go back, the music will start to loop over itself.
I had some technical issues with the game. The music seemed to be playing multiple times and I kept freezing (on Windows). Perhaps I was doing something incorrectly or didn't understand what I was supposed to be doing. Anyway, I enjoyed what I was able to play. Enjoyed the art and the character movement was pretty crisp.
The main game mechanic has a lot going for it, it's fun trying to strike a balance between keeping enough of the platform intact whilst having enough ammo to survive. Unfortunately some interface bugs and omissions get in the way of enjoying the heart of the game.
How am I supposed to quit from full-screen mode? The quit button on the menu works, but once I started playing, I couldn't get back to the menu and had to Alt-F4 to quit when I died. Also, nothing explains what the different colored ammo does. Should I be paying attention to the different colored UFOs?
The menu is nice. The music is nice. The game could use sounds.
Sorry, about the issues people have been have with it freezing, aswell as with music looping over it self. Both should now be fixed.
Fantastic idea with the theme! A couple bugs I noticed: You could mine the floor underneath you on the very right side and then get kicked out of the map. Also, It seemed enemy shots weren't that clear and the mechanics were still a little confusing after the tutorial. Would be great to add some sort of shoot sound, even if its a simple pop or something. On that note, enemy bullets did feel a little fast. I also encountered the problems with the music continuing when going back to the main menu and the game freezing when you loose a round. Loved the music!! Great game!
No description, no screenshots, no trailer. What this game about?
Fun concept! The color-swapping mechanic wasn't that useful because there were a lot of colors and you had to react very quickly to not get killed. The core idea behind having to manually make the stage smaller to keep fighting is really neat, and this is a pretty decent execution of it. The music is fantastic. Overall nice entry!
It's an interesting concept, one I don't think I've ever seen before. The game would have been a bit more challenging though if the player didn't have infinite reach. I like the music, it fit the game pretty well. I wasn't that much of a fan of UFO's spawning and instantly shooting me but otherwise with a bit more work it could be a lot of fun!
Probably the most underrated game. This game deserves 5/5!
