Good graphic and snappy sound effects! The voices surprised me out of nowhere though.

Very nice bullet hell type of a game you made here. I tried a couple of times and at the last try I was going through the level again after again like no tomorrow with some power-ups under my belt.

Hmm.. Now that I'm looking at the screenshots, maybe there were other levels but somehow for me it just looped the first level?

I liked the saturated and glowy look. Maybe the audio side could've been more impactful with some more work but all-in-all it was a good time playing your game!

Nicely done!

@jaywoody Thank you! :) There is only one looped level, but each time enemies are slightly stronger and they are shooting faster.

Really nice graphics, and cool sound effects, it was just really laggy for me, making it hard to aim. If you could add some way to reduce lag, or just reduce it overall, that would be :ok_hand:

Like the graphics! It's just a little hard for me (I'm noob don't worry! lol)

@jackson-makes-games - I have added version 1.1, with some of post processing effecta switched off on medium quality and below. Maybe that would help.

Very good game, it was fun to play, graphics were great and a lot of good sound effects(though the player shooting sounded a bit weak). The difficulty was pretty well balanced, but it was unforgiving that you'd lose a life from just one hit. The difficulty decreased rather than increase because of how much stronger the upgrades made you, so if you started with for example 5 lives and gained more lives in the earlier levels that would make the early levels a lot easier, but increase the difficulty later as you couldn't buy upgrades that often.

I really couldn't play it, because of the lag. It made it impossible to react and to even see what is going on on thee screen. But i think without that, from what i could tell, you created a really enjoyable experience for better PCs with that gameplay, audio and especially with this great visualstyle!

Good game!

I enjoyed it. It suffers a little from repetitiveness but I'm sure that's a symptom of the time constraints. I liked the look of the sprawling city underneath. The only thing I would say is the constant "ticking" of the gun firing begins to get annoying after a while. Maybe more variation in the firing sounds, or some background music to wash it out a little. But overall I liked it. Good entry!

Cool game, understandably not very detailed and not a very original take on the theme, but still fun to play!
