A pleasant rift on the arcade style, controls are a bit slow, with more development I could play this for a few weeks!

A pleasant rift on the arcade style, controls are a bit slow, with more development I could play this for a few weeks!
The game looks and feels really good. The gameplay is cool too but I think the ship is a little too slow for it to be fully enjoyable. Are the sounds mouth-made?
The controls could also be a bit faster for me. It's sometimes a bit unlucky when two spaceships come from different sides. I like the particle effects and the look of the game though. For me there was a bug that I was not able to restart the game, but instead I had to refresh the page.
well polished, could have done with a tracker like enemies killed, also some screen shake when the planet gets hit would have added a lot. as others said it would be nice if the shooter was faster too. Great game though!
Nice art. Some feedbacks: 1. Maybe the arrow could move bit faster. 2. The game could be more zoom out. 3. There could be scoring system.
A small and simple game, but wow it's really fun! Sometimes simplicity is key, and you really hit the nail on the head. great work and congrats on your first Ludum Dare!
Nice graphics, which were quite visually appealing! The sound effects were also very nice and fit the rest of the game! I sometimes felt that it was a bit tricky to get my arrow to move around the wold in time, this speed might have been okay though if the camera had been more zoomed out so I could see when a ship was coming from further away. Overall, this was a fun Compo entry!
Nothing beats pixel art with post-processing! The game would be more fun if the arrow could move faster! Greato Jobu! :smile:
nice little game. need a lot more juice and scoring system or levels.
It is very good, a score and levels are missing, a little faster the control to move for the shot and it would be great!
Great entry, the game is simple but pretty fun, with more levels, enemies and even weapons or upgrades coul be a very complete game :D
Good job. I like the glow the sprites have. The particles for when the ship blows up looks cool. There should be a sound and an animation when the earth gets damaged. When I press space to play for a second time, the game freezes. Like others have said, the arrow moves too slow.
I really like how this game looks. Really shows how much of a difference a bit of post-processing can do. The sfx weren't amazing, but its always better to have some than to not, a lot of jam games neglect sond, leaving them feeling empty. In terms of game play it's simple, but does keep entertained for a while. Some more variation would maybe keep it interesting for longer. Overall a simple game with very well-done presentation.
