Hilarious, I love it. Pong interlude is excellent.
I enjoyed the game's smooth, responsive controls and interesting enemy/pickup movements. As others have said, I think health might drain too fast and batteries might spawn to infrequently as the game progresses. I think it could be improved with the addition of more features such as power ups or similar, or simply more enemies rather than fewer batteries later in the game. Overall a fun game that just needs a little bit more work.
I loved playing through this a few times and writing notes down on a piece of paper each time. The game is a really clever use of the theme and has a lot of character in spite of its simple gameplay. This has already been mentioned, but WASD is probably better if players are going to use the mouse. Fantastic entry overall.
I found this game to be well balanced and engaging, and enjoyed that it forced me to move around strategically rather than camp. Minor improvements might be the addition of enemy health bars (it's hard to remember which enemies have been weakened) and perhaps auto-firing, since there's usually no reason not to be firing constantly and my mouse hand got a little tired. Overall, very fun and well-rounded entry.
Very relaxing and fun! I definitely recommend using a controller over a keyboard if you have one, but keyboard is still usable. I also forgot which island I was supposed to be moving towards; perhaps a landmark like a flag or a house might have helped forgetful players like me. Wonderful entry overall!
