AWESOME game! This is SOO fun. I love the graphics style, and the audio is perfect for this game. 9/10

Very engaging game :smiley: Before I got first upgrade it was a bit dull, but then the fun part started. The music is great and also the overall style of the game. Some suggestions: - xp needed for first upgrades could be lower to engage player quicker - some sound effects for the lasers would be nice (e.g. pulsating sound implemented as a separate layer synced with music and toggled when the laser is firing)

Very good experience ! All merchanics are very good and the graphics and audio are also great !

Wow, that's a surprisingly polished game for the compo!

I love the music, the art, the upgrade system! Damn it's clever and unexpected too see a well thought trough upgrade system in a jam game. Fits the theme very well.

I really enjoyed it. Given enough it could be a great bullet-hell rogue-like or smth...

Love it, amazing job!

Great sprite art and a solid set of interfaces. I imagine over time and testing you could find a pace that really works for the game. Keep it up!

Very addictive game. Spend at least 30 min in it, and absolutely will be back for more! Good luck!

Love the graphics! I included it in my Ludum Dare 49 compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/IO7T3gBWVBc

@owca Thanks for feedback! I am glad you enjoyed cristallizato. Also thanks for helpful pieces of advice. I didnt make laser sounds because i thought they would be annoying. But i didnt think about sounds synced with music!

@jupiter-hadley Thanks for including my game! I saw your keynote - interesting and inspiring life story :)

xcvzxc 2021-10-06 16:25

@madjackmcmad Thanks for playing! And yeah, proper balance is something that has always been difficult for me during game jams

xcvzxc 2021-10-06 16:27

@caudatecoder Thanks for playing! Some enemies were meant to shoot bullets, but... limited time said NO :(

Hey this is a lot of fun =D. Great job! Its crazy satisfying when you have 5 lasers just tearing through the hoards of enemies

cozygamepals 2021-10-07 18:10

Wow! So polished! Great job

jkgames 2021-10-07 18:13

This one might be my favorite from everything i played yet! It fells good to play, it´s extremely polished, and EXTREMELY adictive. Really great entry!

Got to 714 enemies defeated and felt like an absolute powerhouse! I'm keeping this one on my pc for sure! Great job!

Very fun game after a few levels, the “hold down exit button fill bar” is a good idea. it would have saved my first run, if the reset button had that as well, the music is also really good, did you make that yourself ?

xcvzxc 2021-10-10 08:28

@life-lich Thanks for playing! Sorry for this reset button, I should have thought about that. Yes , I made music myself as this is compo entry and there is no other way to put music in game. I am actually also an amateur music producer (XCVZXC on SoundCloud).

At the first time, I didn't get that I could improve the ship, but it's clear enough, maybe you don't have to explain it better. Very fun game, exploding ships is satisfaction.

dkz1989 2021-10-12 17:54

Very cool game! The art is really cool, congratulations!

raphiell 2021-10-12 22:50

Wow this was amazing! I had so much fun.

It would have been interesting to have the negative effects have a random order, so each play is different. Also, if there was a visible marker showing the radius at which you get hurt from using the gun too close to enemies, that would be nice, I killed myself like that because it was hard to tell if I would hurt myself.

Was really fun though, well done!

Really fun game! I love the art a lot. Really satisfying to play! :)

Nice work!

Great game ! Gameplay felt very satisfying and the music is great. A web version would have been nice, but it was clearly worth the download.
