Why do people insisit on rattling on about the NG having no decent games and just mediocre fighters? Never mind, not a question based in reality so ignore it, plus we now have Shinobi!
Played on my NGCD (it does work it just needed some adjustment!) and loved it mate. Great port by a great guy. Thanks for ignoring the lamers and releasing it :)

I also want to add. The chat we had about difficulty, timers, etc etc. I personally say stick to your vision and dont change a thing, maybe tweak but don't change.
Yeah sure some people will not enjoy it and thats OK. Dumbing down a vision is not a thing that should be entertained IMO just to satisfy that small section of people that dislike the gameplay.
Your game is 110% learnable even when doing it talking to people and streaming! If it was easier, or if there is an easier option like taking out the timer or making it longer it loses something vital in my opinion.
All of this is just my view of course :)
That was excellent. Thanks for hanging in the stream and to the IRL Anna too :)
Great game so far, hard? Yes! Learnable, very much yes! Great gameplay, very very fun to play despite the accuracy, or maybe because of it? You saw me laughing so genuine compliment.
Looks great, feels great and wicked sound and music.
Cannot wait for full release and me trying to finish it... *sigh*
Keep up the great work Chris and Co.
To repeat what I already said on the Jam comments...
Huge shmup fan so I was always going to love this if it was decent, and it is!
Plays like a very refined shmuup whilst still retaining that look and feel of an Amiga classic game. Thumping music by the main man was always gonna be bangin'
Controls great, feel great, fast, smooth, fun as all feck.
Will rate 4.5 stars when I can.
This game is an odd one. Not my kinda game tbh but still enjoyed the concept of it, Loved the HAM graphics and helping "rain beat my crops" lol. Unsure of the depth but was still funky. Happily try it again sometime, will it be a full game at some point? Might be cool then?
Happily give it a 3.8 when i can rate. Thanks for giving me an unusual experience on the Amiga!
Acidbottle already knows this, but I effing hate Dizzy games! However! This is no ordinary dizzy (roll of the screen and break) game, thankfully. First played with an 8 way stick and did not enjoy the controls at all... but then changed to a 4 way stick and found the controls to be perfect for the game.
Cute graphics, clean, fun to play (yes i said a dizzy game was fun), great music and didnt look like a boring lcassic Amiga game, this is a bonus IMO.
Love ya man, rating this a straight 4 for me. Thanks :) x x x x
As a massive PCB arcade board gamer and fan for me this one hit me right in the feels. I adore games like this and yours felt perfect for its genre and "age". Great look, great gameplay, great feel, masses of fun. I dread that some will think it looks too old, more fool them though.
Keep up the great work and thank you for making games :)
I will rate this 4.3 out of 5 when I can. Lovely.
interesting game that I hope others give a chance. Starts off looking a bit... plain? End up furious and addictive. Really enjoyed, didn't expect too so am happy I gave it more of a chance.
Great looks for the style you went for. Would have killed for some kinda music in game.
For me, solid 3.9 outa 5. Happily play it again.

Took me a while to play it but you were there so you know whats coming anyway!
Best release you have done. This is not a question, it is a literal fact. Great sprite work, great gameplay and the music was perfect (once I pushed my stereo jack in all the way....) Absolute love for it mate, cannot wait for my tape :)
Stunning text Adventure on the ZX Spectrum. Tried it as part of Planeta Sinclairs GOTY stream I did and promised to play through later, which as you know I did.
Great story, Great writing. Great game. Eveything about it just gelled really well.
Thank you so much for making Spectrum games. Keep up the good work, coz that means I get great games to stream too :D
OK, Heres the review, also i found a game break bug will tweet you the video clip :)
TinyTim78: That's different
Sloanysoft: Hilariously cruel
HandheldHannahScott: A hole in some
RetroHitch: Bugger!
Brilliant game, highly playable, highly frustrating, highly worth a couple of bucks.
Def a go back and play again game, thank you so much, I loved it, my viewers loved it, hopefully they all now pay for it!
What a game, what a 3 game package!
Great to play, fun, fast and GAAAAAAHHH worthy like all Spectrum games should be.
Love the variety between all three games, really is worth playing all of them. Great job once again on the code and graphics and just pulling off that "one more go" feel which most modern games lack!
Hope my stream helps move some units guys.
Loved it!
Absolute STONKER of a game guys!
Well worth! Fast, Fluid, Fun. Great controls and feeds "ONE MORE GO" cravings. Hitch rates a solid 9/10. Just how a Speccy game should be!
Seriously enjoyed playing... now to beat 16/18!
If anyone reads this and trusts this streamer then trust me again, buy the game. Its got more fun in it than all the modern games out there and its only 2 bucks!
So good it made my hair rise to new levels so as the tides slowly drown the planet, this game and this game alone provides mankind with safe harbour!
Yes it really is that blummin' good. Buy it. Play it. Stream it (profile for my stream) and remember, jump on the hair to stay safe!
Bruce, brilliant job mate. Easily one of the best games on the incredible, and not brown, ZX Spectrum!
