And the way the waves already shot moved when you moved the gun. Nice. The eternal mode was kind of unbalanced though. It was really hard in the beginning, but as soon as I got into a corner and focused the beam a bit it was all really easy.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I think a nice touch would be if the focus of the gun drifted so that you continuously had to tweak it.

Really like the fact that the damage changes depending on the cone that you shoot.

Really awesome animation with that, and the enemies dying. I agree with Pierrec though, the game is too hard for me to play fair, and too easy when you just go in a corner.

Really nailed it :) Feedback: I found the game to be too easy. I could just sit in the corner with the shallow angle gun and aim at the middle and that would be it. Some potential easy enhancements: Vary the pitch randomly on the sound effects. It will make the game sound much more dynamic. Add a spawn door on each side of the bottom floor so that you can't camp. Add a double jump to make the player more maneuverable. All in all, nice work :)"},{"author_name":"Elemental Zeal Games Studios","author_uid":"12839","time":"Apr 21, 2015 @ 7:51pm","epoch":1429645560,"text":"Neat game.

Yeah.\r\n\r\n--------GUN MECHANICS EXPLANATION--------\r\nThe damage the gun produces depends on the surface area with which the microwaves strike the target, meaning if you focus your beam, it'll do more damage but affect less enemies. It also depends on whether the target is behind another target by using what I call an absorption coefficient. However, some calculations are imperfect due to lack of time.","title":"Microwave Man"}
