Loved the memberberries, would be great to see this extended and for you to keep working on it and add more variation
Excellent! Love the reverse-atari retro vibe. Clean, crisp and well executed. Fun little game. Were I to rename this game, I'd call it "Alfred Hitchcock's 'The Boids'" ;) Nicely done.
Nice game, gave me 80s vibes :)
Another weapon, and slightly increased difficulty wouldn't hurt.

Lot of fun, good version of one of these. Really needs in-game music. And perhaps recharge the shield between rounds for people who haven't lost it as well as people who have (not that I lost it but i noticed on messy's stream he got some back after it went down)
Cool game! Was able to win on the first play through. I think the shots going through the swarms really helped melt larger groups faster as they crossed.
More weapons, and maybe different enemies - like diamonds, and pentagons can come at you later?
Really enjoyed playing through this tonight. Great work! I feel like another ability / weapon would be great as killing the stragglers vs killing the swarms was super difficult for me :D
Really loved this! The enemies felt alive. Would play it again just to beat the score
Thanks! High scores are shared so hopefully you got in the top 10!
Wished the missile speed was faster, or maybe faster firing rate. But that would probably made it too easy. Lasted till wave 6 before those arrows knocked down my ship. Nicely done.
Thanks! I designed it so that the fire rate is slower if you hold the mouse down as opposed to pressing for each shot. I never have time to play test things like controls and balance - this is something I need to improve!
ooh if id known that I could have used a macro and done even better :D
I spent a lot of time in my youth playing these kinds of games. took me all the way back.
I consider that a success, thanks!
