Challenging simple game with nice visuals! The controls are a bit hard at the start ^^

Submitted

Cool game, but could probably use a tutorial and explaining the controls, because it's a little unclear what you're supposed to be doing. I wish you could use WASD for movement instead of arrow keys, because I find controlling movement with my right hand and shooting with my left to be a  little tricky. Otherwise this game is pretty fun and feels nice and polished.

Submitted

Was a neat experience, although I was very unsure what to do at the start.

cool game i love the visuals!

What I liked:

  • the 3d models and their animations (I really like 3d models in a 2D game)
  • the background
  • that you have to defend something
  • the game play loop
  • how polished the game felt

What I didn't like:

  • the controls (they were the hardest thing) -> fix: offer different controls schemes
  • that you get lost and don't know where "the drone" is -> fix: add some kind of arrow that guides you in the direction if you are too far away
  • repetitive audio -> fix: add different versions of the same sound and then randomly select of them.

Really fun arcade style shooter game! One of my favorites I've played here.

Pros: great visuals, excellent music and sound design, really fun momentum based space controls, satisfying gameplay loop, very impressive level of polish with different weapons and enemies.

Cons: While the sound design was really good it was dying for some balancing and randomization, some of the sounds were incredibly repetitive and happened a lot and when the screen turned into bullet hell the audio would start clipping bacause of too many sources playing at once. Some kind of map or indicator that tells you where your allies and enemies are would be very nice because I spent most of the game wandering around trying to find them and ultimately lost because I had no idea where my drone was and it died.

Nice graphics ad controls. I like killing people. Also I didn't know I had a main ai base or an AI buddy until like 4 minutes in.

YES! I'm a sucker for more accurate spaceflight. Unfortunately it was easy to lose track of the spy drone, maybe a little indicator would help? Great fun though, add some new mechanics here and some polish there and you have a very solid game on your hands!

Nice decision to go semi-newtonian with the ship controls, flying it around feels really satisfying. Spinning around and shooting enemies while flying backwards always feels so cool.

Fun game!

The game looks and feels sick. But how do the powerups work?

Developer

Hi man! Everytime you get 20k score, you can choose a new power up. It is automatically implemented on your ship. You just need to keep firing

fun game

The 3D models look very good and destroying the enemies feels extremely satisfying :D. It would be good if there was a way to find the drone if you lose it.

Submitted(+1)

The drone goes super fast and is hard to control imo, but I like the overall feel. Feels polished and the visuals are great. Also if you hit enemies it's extremely satisfying :D Good job on the game!

Cool escort arcade top-down space shooter. I enjoyed it! It would be good if there was an indicator for where the AI helper robot is. Best of luck with the ratings!

The background art and 3D models look pretty astonishing! The floaty nature of the ship is also decently fun to play around in.

The controls are a little tough to get used to, and my bullets sometimes don't spawn. But overall a pretty good entry!
