Pretty cool game, simple and intuitive and clean execution. The music is VERY cool :thumbsup:
Simple but fun, missing the replay with boost from previous run.
Woah, I love it. It's so simple but very engaging and fun. There are several minor tweaks I would do: - The screen shake is sometimes a bit too hard - very noticable when using semi-auto - The good progression is not clear. Maybe it is part of the design (in that case completely disregard this point) but I completely had no idea which weapon to choose when shopping, just to realize that I downgraded to something worse. I think stacking the weapons on top of each other would be slightly better - but then of course the difficulty would have to be adjusted. - I would love to have 'fix ship' option in the shop available
nice! bit hard controls, but cool ideas.
This is a fun game. I like the shop mechanic, since it encourages changing weapons to keep healing. At first I thought some of the weapons were overpowered, but it's good to see there's different enemy types that counter the weapons somewhat.
Also, the music is very cool. Overall nice work!
I love the controls in this game. They kinda remind me of the slippery levels in Micro Machines. It's a joy to play, great stuff!
Best Game ever! good controls
Fun and well executed game. It definitely falls into the category of "just one more run" games for me :smile: as I always felt I could do a bit better. The controls were very intuitive and felt good, and the weapon upgrades were varied and fun. I like the mechanics of needing to fly around to collect money, but then return to the center of the stage to access the shop. I also like how you integrated a reminder of the controls on the stage, that was a nice touch.
Great little game, fun to play through. The boss is pretty dang hard still trying to get him. The camera is a bit to slow as you upgrade but overall I loved the mechanics expecially having to change weapons for health.
I loved the physics of the game, feeling this heavy at the beginning with so much inertia felt challenging :D The graphics are simple but really nice. I though some guns were too powerful but you had enough enemy variety to balance the guns so that was really well thought :D good job!
Good solid game! I had some issues playing because I have a trackpad (so I couldn't boost and shoot at the same time) but I still managed to get like 2000 scrap. I wasn't sure if there was an end to it – I had the homing gun and mostly didn't see anyone all game because I kept killing them off screen.
You've really nailed a lot of the most important elements here, one of which is the controls. The controls are smooth and fluid, and the physics are nice. The art is great. I wish the weapon upgrades stacked or something. I think this could be the start of a game with a lot of potential if the upgrade system was tweaked a bit. I also feel like I'd like to see a bit more of the map, but it's tough to know if that would mess things up gameplay wise. Either way, great job with this. Definitely one of the most polished ones I've played so far.
Ooh, that's a nice one! Nice movement / shooting mechanics, amazing enemy variety and really polished audiovisuals. One thing I'd change is to reduce the camera shake a bit, and maybe also reduce the camera deadzone / drag. Good job on slowly introducing more enemy types as the game progresses!
Fun game! I included it in my Ludum Dare compilation video series, if you’d like to take a look. :) https://youtu.be/e8i89EcGrVo
