Interesting take on the theme. As others have said, this is borderline impossible to play with keyboard (tried though!) and it's much better with the thumbsticks. I really liked the idea of the controller input though. Apart from that I feel the game feels too slow and rigid (you should be able to ease the enemy movement so it feels smoother), the bullets from the enemies too fast and the hitbox unforgiving. Good job.
Waaaay better with a controller. It's an fun little game. Good Job.
Unique way to move a ship but personally I think it could have been done in a more intuitive way, the player also moves a tad bit too slowly to be able to dodge effectively.
I didn't understand why the ship moves to right. I can't move it to the left. Idea was cool tho
The helecopter isnt controlled in the conventional way of using the arrow keys. My take on the theme was to rotate which buttons you press to rotate the propellors. Its explained in the tutorial section of the game
*went back and figured out the controls but the game is brutal, i cant get very far into it as it takes to long to move and the ship is too big
The controls are in the tutorial page in the main menu. You must press w->a->s->d in a rotation to speed up the left propellor and the arrow keys in a rotation to move the right controller. The controls are confusing but it is explained in the tutorial
Ah! I thought I only need to use arrow keys. Now get it (my high score is around 40)
