The game was quite fun, and the upgrade system seemed very intricate and thought out, although the difficulty ramped up very quickly into round 2 imo, especially with the peashooters dealing a significant amount of damage.
Thanks for the review, good point concerning the movement, i think that would've worked better (having W move the ship forward, then A and D rotating the ship). The minimap and parallax would've been nice additions as well.
As for the missiles, they should home in on enemies pretty aggressively, but picking their initial vector (maybe the direction your mouse is point) is something i should've added.
Really great feedback, thanks for the suggestions as well!
Yeah I really wanted to get a parallax effect working but I didn't really like the way it looked when I tried it. I liked the idea of being able to go in any direction, and I didn't have the time to figure out how to repeat the background so you would never run out of space.
As for the crashing, that's really weird, you said you get to about 30 seconds, is this before/after the solar storm, is this on death?
