This links seem broken, can you please check? Thanks!

I honestly came here because of the cover image :laughing: but the links don't work

danidev 2019-04-29 11:35

Link didn't work for me :/

heldernogunity 2019-04-29 12:50

This Project is in development

Link did not work; when opened, it just crashed and closed.

Pretty fun! Basic space shooter. The game was overall clean and nice, but the gameplay could use some variety :)

Neat game, i managed to trick the enemy ships by flying behind em :D but i couldn't manage to win the game

Nice work on this! I'd make it so the bullets came out a little slower, at least for the enemies, and the ship movement was a little fast but overall it was lots of fun!

Nice game.

Quite simple, but enjoyable :smiley:

Though I felt like enemies didn't even take my bullets and asteroids were too fast to react.

The idea is great, and imo it's about balance to polish it :slight_smile:

Thanks everyone

Good game, overall very nicely made and works well

jofersgames 2019-05-01 16:16

Cute, simple, fun :)

Very simple premise. The easiest solution was to fly "behind" the enemies and just dodge rocks until you had a real strong lazer.

tempii 2019-05-01 17:29

I also tried the "fly behind the strategy" and also found out, that since there is no ship collision you can just sit directly on top of the enemies and even damage them, when they don't hit you, sind they are bigger.

And if you do it correctly it kinda looks like you upgraded your ship :D upgrade.png

Welcome man! glad to see it's your first jam game! Your game is good, simple and straight forward, as some here say it would be nice to see some variety in gameplay. It might not even need to be a different enemy, but it could be an event with loads of asteroids, or changing the bullets' hue to show that they deal more damage, little tricks like that. Good entry, keep it up! :)

heldernogunity 2019-05-02 16:25

Thanks

sholyu 2019-05-02 17:09

Nice game but maybe a way to win back life would be nice, like kill enemies will grant life but they will deal more damages, because sometime you take damage and you know the next upgrade will kill you whatever you do :/

Also I had a issue where the enemies were immortal.

But its a nice game, it has potential ! GG

jam373 2019-05-02 17:19

Simple but clean, functional and above all else, fun! Nice work!

aterlamia 2019-05-02 17:20

I think the first enemy stayed alive a bit to long to start the game with, for the rest i enjoyed it

rucri95 2019-05-02 17:22

Link didnt work :( but it seems to be a nice game! Good job my friend!

vectrex28 2019-05-02 17:22

Great concept, simple yet fun. However, the bullets' sound gets a bit annoying after a while and I feel like it's pretty hard to hit the asteroids. Still had fun with this, I think you're onto a great game :)

hildebrandt 2019-05-02 17:31

Classic is always good. Nice work thx for sharing.

heldernogunity 2019-05-02 18:21

Thanks guys :)

bitzawolf 2019-05-02 18:40

Got a score of 56,720! Nice little game! Thanks for making it ~

symphonia 2019-05-02 18:40

Like the game, At the fourth upgrade my weapon didn't work anymore though, which was sad because I love beating high scores and all :)! Nice game and pretty fun!

feyd-rautha 2019-05-02 19:04

Not bad for your first entry! Great job getting things in there like the high score and menu and reset stuff.

digitaldude555 2019-05-02 19:12

I got 11k score. Kenney assets are good, the sound when there are many ships on screen it's very mind numbing maybe lower volume or have a softer sound. Impressive for 1 day of making the game, and thank you for rating over 50 games.

heldernogunity 2019-05-02 19:17

You're Welcome!

nekorio 2019-05-02 19:43

nice concept, it was a bit hard but once understand some strategy it comes funnier ^^

gentel 2019-05-03 06:13

Highlights:

- The background and the stream of player bullets looked good.

- Player movement was very smooth.

- Good sound on the player's bullet stream.

To Improve:

- Bullets stopped doing damage after a certain level

- Enemy AI doesn't need to be crazy complicated but mirroring the player moves isn't the best option either.

- The health-costing upgrade was forced, this should change to fit the currency theme.
