All the bells and whistles for a space shooter. By any chance have you played Ikaruga? Check out my review at https://www.twitch.tv/scalphamission

Hey! Yes, I most definitely have played it :) The review is great, thanks!

I tried to reproduce the bug of not being able to move diagonally while shooting but it works for me. What browser/OS are you playing on?

Really polished game I've seen so far in this jam. Super fun, great choice of music and sfx. Really wish there was an option to lower the audio, some of the sfx for shooting bullets was too loud. Would appreciate if there was a volume slider. The highest score i got was: 37750pts. Graphics is super cute, maybe try adding a possibility to shoot down the enemy's bullets. 

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! I will look into adding some volume options in a post-jam build.

Super fun! The art and sound effects were great and the mix of enemy blasting and obstacle avoiding was fantastic! Great work.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback!

This game is perfect for a game jam, easy to play and hard to master,  the art was amazing too, the only thing that I could change is adding an option to mute or reduce the music volume.

Developer

Thanks!

I love this, it looks and plays great. The use of the color palette for this is really good. Well done!

Developer

Thanks for playing ❤️

Great little arcade game. I managed a high score of 37750 lol. I love how the visuals were still clear even though the game got very chaotic at times. Great music as well

Well deserving of all the praise! The artwork + audio were both really solid, and the difficulty was well managed :)

This feels like an early access title on Steam!

The music, the effects, the visuals. Everything fits perfectly together!

It reminds me so much of the early 2000's flash games like Commando :D

Serious request: would you mind optimizing the game's resolution and screen size to fit the Steam Deck? I can totally see this game to be alot of fun on a portable console!  

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! We'll sure look into Steamdeck if this gets turned into a real game 😊

This is near perfection. I usually don't like shooters, but the fact that I can go backwards makes it a lot easier than other similar games, which makes it more casual.

Thanks for the feedback ❤️

very well done I really like the old school space shooter games and it pair nicely with the puzzle style dodging of blades and such nicely

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing 😊

I only got to 10500 score... But the game was fun, challenging, it had a great concept.

Good job!

Developer

Thanks for playing! Keep practicing and your score will go up :)

Crazy good!!I had a big smile on my face, this game is polished as heck and fun to boot. Well done fellas

Developer

Thanks for playing!

A very polished and fun game. I kept getting "no health bonus" at the end, maybe I should finish the level faster or something to get it. Really enjoyed the gameplay though. The art style is neat. Very good sound and visual effects. Good job!

Thanks! The health bonus thing is confusing... it's a score bonus for remaining health, not an actual health bonus 😅 You get restored to full health at the start of the next level anyway.

EDIT: Congrats on completing the game & thanks for playing!

Fantastic art and sound effects, and the gameplay was fun and faced paced, I like it!

Developer

Thanks for checking it out!
