I really want to enjoy this but there is a problem for me, the game seems to run at 5fps. I have no idea why.
If there's a fix coming please make me aware so I can give it another go.

I really want to enjoy this but there is a problem for me, the game seems to run at 5fps. I have no idea why.
If there's a fix coming please make me aware so I can give it another go.
It doesnt change the game at all so I wouldnt call it a feature. But you could clarify with one of the admins.
Not bad, racy music, managed 5 waves.
Its a shame you guys couldnt get the theme idea in that you had planned, I can really see it working out. Got that 1950's b-movie scifi going. Amusing sfx :D
Loved the intro sequence. Best I could manage was wave 14.. Still I think with a bit more strategy I can beat that :D
I wanted to get into this but stage 3 is still crashing for me.
On the first few attempts I got stuck on the AI also, so I avoided them in the next play.
Missing a dll. Once its fixed let me know and I shall rate it.
Loved the devolve sound effect!
Indeed this does feel very oldschool, the cavemen made me a laugh a bit :D
It was a clever idea to use the helix to influence the mutations.
Very short indeed, however it took me 4 attempts to beat it.
Was kinda frustrating that I had to restart the app to play each time. But its just me being lazy :D The controls were a little awkward with the diagonal direction.. Was that an intended difficulty feature?
Good little FPS, technically very good for the time frame.
Clever evolution mechanic, never did manage to get past lvl4 evolution.
Its a little hard to hit the enemies, but I guess maybe that's intentional to make use of the captures.
I played until my character was the only thing left and I had no idea what I was doing :D
It did freeze for me closing down.
Really does need some sort of tutorial.
Very simple game, congratulations on completing your first LD.
Very nice music and sfx.
Enemies where kinda small, hard to hit.
Found that you could just strafe in a circle and not get hurt.
Its a shame you couldnt get more done, it looks as though this was going to be fun.
You put yourself down too much, the art isnt that bad. The music is very good too.
Very good production standards.
Encountered a game breaking bug on stage 4, one of the balls fell through the scene.
Loved this, super 8 bit style. You got three 5 stars from me (theme, gfx, audio). Not gonna mention more because I dont want to spoil for anybody else. Great :D
Quite a clever mechanic, I can see the influences you mentioned.
I like the art style in this, simple functional sfx.
Very good graphics, suits theme very well.
Quite an interesting idea but there seems to be no goal, other than to get in sync with the music. The music was very good but it would be nice if there was some climax, perhaps a boss fight or similar.
Very good music and sfx. Gameplay gets repetitive after a short while.
Good job on your first LD!
Clever idea. Slightly let down with the collision.
Fell out of the 3d map with the green character.
I could not get any living cells. The help wasn't really helpful.
Very good and very tough, this one is worth coming back too.
Oh I just want to add, the music is very atmospheric and adds a lot to the mood.
Very good, been hooked for the last 30 mins. Damnit level 7 got the better of me. Very good, fun game!
This is pretty enjoyable in a retro kind of way, shame you couldnt get a full blown adventure done in the time frame.
Some ambient music would go a long way too.
I really had no idea what I was doing :D
Its very much on theme though.
Do a barrel roll!
Good concept but seriously level 3 is insane :D
Excellent graphics, from the sprite work down to the god rays. Animation also very good. Water effect perfect. Being able to break scenery was a nice touch too.
Now I feel like a manwhore. I dated so many girls.
Good gfx and sound, novel idea. Very good for 24 hrs.
This would not start up for me (win7 64bit). All I got was a blank console screen.
I'm a fan of vector gfx so I knew as soon as it started I would enjoy this. Very good music. Really really tough game.
After 10 attempts I could still barely pass the larger asteroid wall.
Easy selection of evolution, a little slow paced in the shooting department but I still went on to destroy 1000 kittens :D
Interesting game but I could never find the ending :D
As mentioned can really get that mario vibe, its in the gfx I think.
The music was very good, however there appears to be a bug in the web version in which a new instance of the music is started for each level / death but the old instance remains playing. The result is many layers of music playing out of time with each other. Other than that good job.
First 10 minutes was frustrating could not work out what I had to do. Watched part of the LP and it made sense. The gfx are nice, quite technical for the time frame also.
Controls are a little tricky at first.
Took me a few games before I realized mouse shoots.
I think a simple improvement would be to allow the player to shoot through the enemy projectiles.
Very good, played all the way to the end.
If I had a complaint it would only be that it was too easy.
3 games quite an achievement! However the first is clearly my favourite. Not sure where the theme fits in, is it meant to be the difference in the technicality of the 3 games?
I'll second that spamming the space bar worked well :D
