nice little game! movement to me felt pretty slow to move and turn, especially when the enemies come towards you fairly quickly. A boosting button would be cool to quickly move away from them (in return for losing health or a crystal or something). Good job!

In what way does your game fit the theme?
The gameplay is very chaotic. You make enemies collide to destroy each other and collect Chaos Crystals for survival. May CHAOS be with you!
Did you write all the code yourself and made all the assets from scratch?

A fun little game with potential!
I found that at times it was both hard to turn (when moving) and too easy to turn (when not). I think there needs to be some active way for the player to get rid of the ships, like dropping bombs -- you could do shooting, but that's not that unique. After a while of evading ships, was hard to actually find where the crystals were. Play area for these kind of Asteroid like games tend to wrap around for a reason, so that you don't get lost. You might want to add some kind of indicator that follows the edges of the screen to tell the player what direction to head to the nearest crystal.
I enjoyed playing this! A simple mechanic done well with clean graphics and some nice animation. There's a few bugs like no music, a grey bar at the right of the screen sometimes, and you can move out of the play zone, but that didn't get in the way of it being a fun game.
Couldnt hear any music, and the play again button didnt work. Looks good overall, although it bugs me that the parts of the destroyed enemy ships dont spawn right where they died. Good work!
Game keeps getting stuck. Don't know if it's a browser bug or what. But in the time that I did get to play, I liked the simplicity of the game. Addicting!
Hey so, I don't know if this was a bug or not, but when I played, the game was... empty. I literally just flew around aimlessly while four enemies tried, unsuccessfully, to catch up to me. The lack of music was also sad to see. I think with some proper tuning, this could really be something fun!
fun little space demolition derby game. well done. i didnt hear any music when i played.
Cool game, pretty cool graphics too. I really like the controls, would have been really nice if we can shoot too. Good job bro
Movement was reallyyy smooth which I liked, but I noticed that if you just move straight towards one direction (e.g. up or down) and then go far enough from the centre of the game enemies spawn a lot less and crystals just don’t spawn at all… Also when they do spawn crystals are a bit too close to each other. The art was simple yet perfect for the game I’d say. A bit unfortunate there was no music but I liked the SFX, although the SFXs did lag a lot for me.
Thank you for the feedback. Yep, that's a problem with the game, although there is no limited range for the map. The enemies will only spawn in the centre. Which is needed if you want to gain points as points are collected by smashing enemies. Which intern Incentivise the player to stay in the centre. Yep, that was something that was left out which I deeply regret not adding as music will make the game more interesting and lively.
Gonna start off with some issues first, the game lagged a lot in the menu (don't think its your fault though, gotta love webgl), the music isn't a thing (although doesn't matter too much), and sometimes crystals spawn too close to each other (just my opinion though). Also making the enemies collide is a really cool thing, but sometimes they spawn too close to each other and just explode instantly without me doing anything. And also sometimes enemies spawn literally right in front of the player and its impossible to avoid them (although this may be what you want, not sure).
On the plus side, the graphics and stuff are pretty simplistic but nice, the sound effects are nice (and also scared the hell outta me in the menu), the player is really "slidey" but I think that's a good thing because its set in space, and also trying to handbrake turn to avoid a rock and causing the enemies to crash into each other is genuinely great fun.
Again, really a nice game!
Thank you for the detailed feedback!
Music wasn't a thing as there was no suitable music that i can find. The enemies that spawn right in front of the player is my incentive to like collect more crystals. I agree that the spawning is not very good which can be changed. Thank you hope u like the mechanics!
ayy my man got the udemy assets. great game tho enjoyed it. Check out my game too!
It was pretty fun watching the enemies blast apart, haha. Simple mechanics and graphics, it's great!
A little too many things going on for my browser, but otherwise it's fun to play keep away! I could certainly spend a lot of time challenging myself with this one!
Well done!
edit: also just realized that you credited some music to the game, but I can't actually hear any...
