Aaaah, I love how games with ducks can come away with pulling such awesome randomness!
Feedback-wise you definitively should have added a muzzle flash and make the bullets explode when they hit the enemies. Maybe also shake the screen a bit.
The tune is pretty nice and the art style fits the weirdness of the game perfectly!
Fun!

@Rick Hoppmann Hey thanks for the feedback! I just got home from vacation and have 3 hours left, so perhaps I can do just as you suggested.

Whilst I think embedding lazers in a shark is a bit of a copout - they're still just lazers. I was very amused to see the sharks wielding duck lazers - nice touch.

Super fun to play, and for some reason the way the ducks legs move around is hilarious.

Pretty classic game, nothing new under the sun. Still funny and fun though! I keep thinking the green gore is an attack.

Ducks are the ultimate gaming medium. 5 stars.

OK 4421. Is there only one powerup? I could need more, those shark are to dangerous :) Fun game you got there.
And like the music too

Sometimes Paint-style graphics are best option. This is the case.

Great soundtrack!

Very funny intro. And not only are you a duck wielding laser sharks, but the sharks wield laser ducks!

Music was good too.

Gameplay was pretty basic, though. Kinda just felt like some funny sprites dropped on top of a standard top-down shooting game.

Not bad for 12 hours, though!

The duck leg-movement is amazing.

This game is hilarious! It's a bit hard to tell when you get hit if you don't hear the QUACK.

God...May I say that I loved this game? *-*
Very funny!
It would be nice a option to skip the intro cutscene, other than job, nice job! :D

This was actually pretty sweet. There was no feedback whatsoever if I was hit or not, or at least the bullet just continued past me. The music is of course a plus, and it was neat!

Fun gameplay and hilarious graphics. The gameplay wasn't especially innovative but the story certainly is... different. The music is nice too! My favorite part is the walk cycle-- simple but efficient, lol. Final score: 3371 (I'm not very good at this, haha.)

That game was far more satisfying than it should have been with that art style... great work!

Your horrible, almost-rhyming poetry totally makes up for the fact that your orange gun is still just a gun that shoots orange bullets (I really do like the bad poetry). Power ups were much appreciated. Points for humor, and the audio is more than adequate.

That was fun. Loved the rotating parts animations! The intro animatic was sort of long. I almost thought the game froze at first.

Not bad for 12 hours! High score was 5560. Nice particles. A bit sketchy on theme.

Lots of fun action. Who would have thought? sharks and ducks fighting to the death with lasers
