I had to turn my mouse sensitivity way up to move the cursor, but I ended up having to bounce the projectiles to hit the bugs I couldn't aim at in time and that works pretty well.

Honestly really nice! The bounces gave me a hard time, but i managed to get he hang out of it. Cool and fun game!

the mouse speed is a bit wierd, but after turning my mouse sensitivity to over 9000 the gameplay was really fun.

Really fun game! Nice work!

thought it was impossible the first couple of tries but then I got the hang of it and really enjoyed it. good job!

First of all: Good game!

It gave me a hard start but then it got better on the way, since I was learning the tricks ;). I like the sound and the graphics are effective. Easy to learn, hard to master. Well done for this 48h! I like the rough look of the graphics a lot, it reminds me of the old PlayStation games.

My 5 Cents to the game

- Enemies were spawning a bit too close to me for my taste sometimes - Level select in the main menu -> top! - I have the same mouse issue as @butterfly. Even on highest rate it felt a bit slow. - The text in the main menu could stand out a bit from from the background by giving it a bright outline or some hologram sprites under the text :)

Nice game! Keep it up!

(I tipped you a dollar for your efforts ;) )

@jellybean @butterfly @mordrick Thanks for the feedback on the mouse speed. Thats a bug due to me testing only on high sensitivity :( Will keep this in mind for future jams.

@mordrick Awesome, thank you so very much for the feedback and the tip!

@guine @florianbald Thanks, glad you liked :)

@arachnid56 Thanks for the feedback, the levels probably could be broken up a bit to show stuff in order and have the enemy spawn clearly located with a warning or something.

Nice concept, fun gameplay. I had same mouse problems, so could not get too far, unfortunately.

Yet, I had fun. Good work and good luck!

Fun and difficult game. Having to keep the reactor position in mind when shooting added an interesting layer to the gameplay. As has already been mentioned, I did have some issues with mouse sensitivity and enemies spawning on top of me.

Nice game. As said before, some outline to highlight the text in the main and selection screen would be good.

The game feels very fresh and unusual, I liked it. Also, the bug sprites are very neat.

Mouse felt very bad to control in this - ultimately gave up after a few runs because it was too sluggish, I felt I was fighting my mouse more than the bugs. Not bad otherwise, bit hard with how long shots bounce and the fact that they keep going when you do kill something with them.
