Fun, but without 360 camera control (by right mouse hold) it feels very fixed. Also the characters animations are abysmally slow and ineffectual feeling. But the art is great!

Very fun game! The camera felt a little claustrophobic, since it was so close to the player and couldn't move up/down. It was a little hard to understand to destroy the spaceship, but a great game! Loved the art too, and the music was AMAZING!

I love the entire space sequence. The skybox, hacking the ship with my cutlass, and of course the cat would get the treasure chest. Also the star particles coming off the chest. I actually stopped when the third wave spawned the first time, but I wanted to see if there was more since the characters were cool and came back to it. Glad I did. Thanks for sharing!

funny little game :) the beam showed up after wave two i think (red guys, blue guys) . It didn't do anything

Developer

Sorry should be fixed in latest build ^.^

The idea is nice and the realization is good but I've not been able to do anything other than running from the alien. Did I missed something?

Developer

Hold down the mouse button to attack the aliens, there are 3 waves total.  After they're all dead step into the beam, then you can attack the ship

ok I'll try that thanks :)

I love the characters, music, and artwork! I'm not sure what to do after the cat lady says "They're taking it, after them!" and there's the green light ray on the chest. Nothing seems to happen to the chest and no more enemies come. Any hints?

Developer

Try walking into the beam, hopefully it's not bugging out haha

Nice job! The art was great. I think the melee was a little unreliable; it was hard to tell if we were in range. A lot of time I would just slam into the enemy and click my mouse hoping they'd drop a health pack. Cute style, good music, and an interesting idea. Well done!


EDIT: As pointed out, I think the camera was a little close. Maybe just letting us zoom in/out would help a bunch!

Thanks for the feedback :) I'm definitely gonna put my future games in the hands of players earlier to iron some of this stuff out

Really great work! The art was really well down and the environment was well put together.  The camera was a bit close to my liking but really well done guys!

Developer

Thanks for playing! And yeah the camera rig could definitely use improvement
