Nice concept it was really fun to play however it could be nice when you hit the enemies give an indicator that the enemy is being hit since is hard to tell is the enemy is dead. Sadly there is no concept of the theme, BUT this is a very fun arcade game and it can be addicting so keep working on this one!!!! :D

Thanks

This is really just discount Galaga/Galaxian.  The "Holes" concept is barely there, and the ships take many hits without any visual feedback.

I enjoyed it pretty much! The art and the gameplay were both really good *0* Hope to see future releases of it :)

This pixel art is well done. The controls were nice and responsive and the enemy variety was nice for a jam game. The audio was a little limited and I felt that there could have been a little more to indicate that either I or an enemy ship took damage. Good game :)

Loved the layout, and the death quotes made me chuckle. the shooting felt odd to me but I wasn't sure if it was my computer, it felt like there was a decent delay between when I hit spacebar and I actually fired, maybe your delay is placed in front of action instead of behind? I could be completely wrong, regardless, really impressed and enjoyed it!

Cool, simple, fun, hard, beautiful in its way SpaceInvaders-like, but not innovative at all(

Nice one! Classic and simple, but fun to play! Great work! 

Developer

Thanks.

Nice little retro game ! Didnt see much of the theme though..

Some ways I would improve it : 

  • Graphic & audio feedback when been hit and hitting enemies : super important for understanding the action
  • auto shoot because smashing the space key gets annoying quickly
  • health and or bonuses pick up !

Thanks for feedback.  I will try to do something more after jam.

I thought the game was entertaining to play, you have cute little graphics and I liked shooting the others ships in the sky.

Was not a fan of having to spam press space key instead of holding it down and it just shoot when its ready.

Cute little game, I enjoyed it :)
