Super impressive amount of polish. I wished the camera showed a bit more of what's in front of the ship, but great job nonetheless !

This was very satisfying to try out. Though I do feel like the robot that you control should have had more armour. Nonetheless, everything is perfect in this game for it being made in 6 hours. Outstanding!
I really liked the responsiveness of the controls, there was a bit of a learning curve to properly fly the ship but when I got over it, it felt super fun. Personally, the camera was too zoomed in for the amount of space that the character takes on screen, I feel like this also caused the pixel graphics to sometimes just look faded or washed into the background, so zooming out would be a lot more enjoyable to me. Overall very impressive and fun.
Thanks :) The control responsiveness is what I remembered the most from the original game - no matter how aggravating heh.
The camera zoom was pretty broken by something in the Builds only :( I didn't have time to debug. I will definitely post a patched one (and a toggle for Pixel vs Normal mode - there are no sprites in this game at all :P )
I liked the super low res art style and the movement was really fun. It was little hard to dodge enemy fire and tell where enemies are coming from. I think either adding some more indicators or zooming the camera out a bit more would help.
This game...I gotta say it was pretty interesting. Of all the games I played in my childhood, I haven't really played a game like this before and it seems really unique to you. I kind of felt the controls were kind of hard to move when it came to steering. (I almost thought I had to bounce and it took me a bit to realize I can fly XD) Overall, the game was pretty nice and quite different to play! If you don't mind me asking, what was this game actually called?
