Good thing aliens can't climb stairs! haha. I loved the audio in this!

Funny use of theme. High HP on enemies means you need to absolutely hammer the fire button the whole time. Ran fine on Windows + Firefox.

Cool music bro/sis. I also like how the bullets curve as well, good work!

It has such a smooth retro touch. Love it :heart:

I kinda felt sorry for the aliens.

I really bought into the game, it has a cool atmosphere - sadly Lvl 4 is impossible to beat. Nice graphics too. ^^ Thanks for making it :D

Not bad! Nice station loop, but it does seem a bit impossible later on.

The animations for docking onto each station are so nice. Wasn't expecting to see such clean transitions between the levels. The art is great and effective too and pairs well with the music! Nice work :)

Great art :D

Very nice :) Will he ever escape the loop? The gameplay seems somewhat luck based. You either keep moving in a direction and shoot every alien, or you're swamped by a horde and have to run through them. Latter usually means death.

Too many aliens for having a strategy. Just running backward and shooting nonstop.

Nice work! With more balance and some more environments this could be really really fun

Interesting idea to have an artifical gravity space station be the loop, and nice docking cutscene.

I got to the 3rd space station, but I don't think it was possible to clear it because aliens kept coming from both directions with no real way of avoiding them other than climbing up the ladder.

I would be curious to know if there is an end to this game (I only managed to go to level 4) but maybe it’s the point :) It’s a pretty good entry, the gameplay is fun (if a little bit repetitive) and the sound is great!
