Very cool game ! The controls feel really good though I would have liked if you could just leave the shoot button pressed down to shoot continuously (my co workers probably hate me now!) but that's a detail ! Congratulations

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah shooting by keeping it pressed is a good idea, I didn't think of that when I was making the controls.

This was really smooth to play. The art looked awesome as well. Well done!

Developer

Thank you!

Nicely done! Great fun, I like the idea of "scaling" between different vessels. However, considering how fast you can shoot with the small vessel, you can pretty well only use that one and still do fine. I would say that the big vessel probably needs a shield or something like that to incentivize its use, currently it is too easy to get hit in that mode. Great entry, best of luck! :)

Developer

Thank you! I tried to make each spaceship reliable through enemy waves, but I don't think that was the best approach. Will try to improve on that next time, thanks for the suggestion!

Really liked how the different ships are used for different purpose, though I feel like the real MVP is the small one! I think it would be nice to have a countdown or wave counter to know when the ennemies are coming or how much there are remaining as it occured multiple times I didn't know what was happening and there was just 1 ennemy off screen ahah. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for the suggestion!

I love the simple but well executed mechanic and music. Very enjoyable and a very interesting idea.  

Developer

Thank you!

ooh I like this twist on a space invaders style game! I think this has a lot of potential depth if you keep flushing it out

Developer

I'm glad you liked it!

Fun game. All the different forms had their own use case

Developer

Thanks!
