Use of the limitation
The limitaion in implemented in the button which inverses movement direction. The main goal of game is to dodge between enemies (birds), survive as long as you can and try to get a good amount of score! Button, I've meant before, changes direction if it's pressed, but also it increases your level of temperature, if it'll be too much, you'll explode. Also, you're not allowed to leave the game's visible field (you can try but the player will explode and the game will get it's end). You need to balance all the parametres I've meant and try to survive as much as you can!

Pretty fun game! Nice visuals and music, and I liked that there was a different track coming in on retry. Found it pretty tough to survive long enough for the heat to become a problem, but I enjoyed having a couple goes. Nice one!

Some screen shake or red flash when you get hit would be nice so beginners know birds hurt. I liked how the canon rotating automatically was more annoying than it did good, nice game.

I remember me to flappy birds.

I like the controls, art, and audio! The ship shoots a bit slow so it feels tough to take down the birds, but that seems to be part of the difficulty so I don't mind too much. Kinda reminds me of flappy bird, but this time I'm taking my rage out on all of bird kind. Neat!

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! (yeah, we haven't just come up with the idea of how to make it moderately useful, it's more like additional stuff)

Awesome game! Liked the art style used, but the ship was a lil too difficult to control and I would be nice if the game started off at a slower pace and gradually sped up over time, other than that nice game!

I think overhit is a myth, because you lose temperature at the same speed as you gain it. But this game is pretty good

Developer

Not really. Losing speed is at 5% more than receiving heat. Maybe it's only a little difference, but it is. My the best score is 27600, I can't go further because of the temperature.

I never survived long enough to see what happens if you overheat, so I'm curious what happens.

I had fun :) Good job

Developer

Thanks for your feedback! (yeah, you'll explode if you overheat btw)
