The movement was very smooth, the fast laser mutation felt quite satisfying to unleash. Overall I enjoyed the game by quite a bunch. Noice.

Developer

Thank You! The goal was to make it feel satisfying as much as possible, and I am glad you liked it :)

this game is very good but it is akward to move with the arrow keys and have to press the spacear

i would suggest making the movement based in wasd

Thank you for the feedback :) I have added support for WASD along with E for laser.

Thank You for testing it out. The source code is now available on github (linked in description). Hope you enjoy it :)

It's enjoyable, but I feel like it's missing some things, for example music, that the ships explode when you destroy them instead of just disappearing, some way to recover lives to extend the duration of the game, although I would have preferred to use another definition such as energy, armor, life, etc., that you could keep several "mutations" at the same time, and finally there is a point in the game that you can abuse the ability destroy.

As positive things, the variety of enemy ships design is appreciated, the asteroids make the game not feel so empty and that they are destroyed in pieces adds interactivity to the game, although touching them only disappears, I would have liked to see them in greater quantity.
I have also noticed that there is an echo effect in the sound effects.

Score: 6/10

Thanks for playing! You are right, there could have been more functionality and features that would make the game cooler, but due to the lack of time, I added only the basic elements of the game. Thank you for the suggestions on things to add. I will definitely add them along with more effects when I polish up the game after the jam :)

I love it! Art is great, sounds are too. I see you spent a lot of time on ship controls, it's nice and polished. Good job!

My score is 4075 - Here is the image

Thank You! Yes indeed! I spent a lot of time on the ship controls. It was meant to be very smooth and nice to control. Even simple games can be polished highly to give a good feel of the game. And that is a great score! My highest was around 3.5K :D
