Solid space shooter, the controls felt very fluid and responsive. The asteroids got me in the beginning because they looked like coins I was supposed to collect but once I learned the lesson, it was pretty easy to follow the game.
Good base here. The ship is a little hard to read against the background, it could use more shading or a dark outline with a lighter body color instead of just being all dark.
It felt like the basic enemies took too many bullets to destroy, or like the ship could use a faster fire rate? But that also made it feel a little more authentically Game Boy.
Pretty interesting concept!
I liked the enemy formations, very retro!
The obstacle formations/designs are pretty cool. This game got pretty challenging! The main ship was a bit lack luster and could use a little flair. I felt like I wanted to see things that could be picked up - like a booster or a blaster that clears an obstacle or something... really cool game!
