Not the sound track you expect in a video game, but definitely the right one for this game! HEAHEHAHEAHEHA Really liked the game! The controls feel a little strange for turning, my guess is that the pivot point for the turn should be either ahead or behind, but not in the center of the craft, butttttt! I had a smile the whole time playing !!! Awesome gameeee!!!
The music is AWESOME! Definitely nails the mood of the game. It's a little tough to see what's going on a lot of the time and the controls make it hard to aim precisely, but it's still very fun! Great job!
Nice game ! i do liked music and 8bit style. Thank you
a lovely small game, although it lagged a bit when playing and when I had a lot of stuff on screen maybe needs a bit of optimization on that area (contact me if you need help), the endless world is a nice addition and the ability to destroy the level is cool but you need to have some indestructible areas because I found my self spamming the fire button and destroying everything. great effort!
@fadrikalexander thank you for feedback! It has some lags in web when new chunks are spawning. I haven no idea how fix it
Very cool entry, awesome music, nice graphics. The game crashed few times, but the overall experience was good. Well done !
Wild powerups and awesome music! The html version crashed for me after the screen filled up with too many lasers :D
I really liked the atmosphere of this one, and nice effects with the weapons and power ups. Good job!
A few issues with the web build: - The music was waaaaaay too loud, when I first loaded it up I was almost deafened, and my OS volume is pretty low. - I ran into this after a while each time I played so I couldn't progress too far: error.PNG
I loved the music but the game really needed some sound fx. The art is great, the gameplay is great, the atmosphere, etc, all great.
first thought. huh, weird, r to shoot? second thought, ooh that's one sick shooting effect. 3rd though, help HEEELP HEEEELP.
Good concept ^^ I think the controls can do with some refinement and itteration, but outside of that I actually really enjoyed this, that was real cool and I'd love to see like shops and such added, with upgrades and maybe healthpacks, like stations hidden far down. Maybe you could even have recruitable units for different ship roles and stories. So some are pilots who make you faster or otherwise make you steer faster, others gunners with their own gun preferences, faster slower aoe etc. dunno, but I think you can do quite a lot with the idea and the panic inducing high energy feeling you get when you are chased by those things through whole minefields. I love it :D Great job!
A really solid entry! I love the artstyle you went with, especially the enemies look super cool. I did find them a bit hard to kill though. The mines were really fun to play around with, especially since they are so bouncy. I am wondering if the mines actually do damage to the enemies too. With a bit more polish this game could be really really cool, and I wish that you will lean a bit more into the gory skeleton artstyle of the enemies.
Really well done!
The art in this is awesome! Though I felt the gameplay was a little awkward. The ship was a bit floaty, killing the enemies was pretty hard, and it wasn't until I just stood still for a minute or two that I actually died. The concept is solid though, so I'd love to see this developed a bit further!
But, don't take that criticism too badly, as for your second LD, and to achieve something with infinite generation? That's an incredible achievement! You should be proud.
Great music and graphics. It was hard for me to see anything and most of the time I didn't even know what hit me. There's also not much chance to avoid bullets/manouver especially when those skull snakes come to play.
Great music! I also really like the moodiness with the darkness and the art style.
The controls could have been a bit more responsive, but otherwise great job!
There's no doubt that the graphics are phenomenal, I'm a sucker for pixel art and that tittle screen just looks amazing. I think the main thing that game is missing is giving more feedback to the player. Shooting and explosions aren't quite as fun without sound effects and the game doesn't really show you when you took damage
