this is actually a really interesting and unique game. it deserves a hell of a lot more attention! the rendering style is really nice, i can't quite put my finger on it.

The game unfortunately doesn't seem to work. It starts some music, renders the screen once then the game crashes and closes

Crashing for me too, I have the gpu ram too, maybe put up a video? I'd love to see the gameplay.

Great concept, great music. I love how the meteors looks.
Unfortunately it's quite slow on my computer (which is a decent Alienware, so I was expecting it to run perfectly).

It would be really great if we could move forward in the direction of the camera (like if I'm looking down, presse W will make me go down). It's a smoother way of moving I think.

Good job.

The idea I see in the description is really nice.
I can't run the game but I'm inside the requirements :/
I'd also like to see a gameplay, I'll stay tuned ;)

I've never seen graphics quite like this. Using a raycast engine made the graphics AMAZING. I loved it. Some might hate the style, but not me. And the music was incredible! It's the sort of stuff I might listen to while coding. I didn't realise you click to choot the meteors, but when I did I had a lot of fun playing.

So many innocent people died D:

Also +100 for that loading screen. That is the best loading screen I have seen, ever. :D

Hi guys, sorry, there were some problems with exception handling, now it should show you an error log, when crashes.
Please, report any errors ;)
P.S. Video is coming...

On mac this forced itself into fullscreen and wouldn't let me quit the program. I had to hard reset.

Good Game, nice work! I love voxels!

Unfortunately I have the same issue as Demy, where it crashes a couple of seconds after launching on Windows. I can't see any logs. If you want me to try anything just give me a nudge on twitter: @benbateman

This is indeed unique. The music makes you dive into the game, which is strange in some really artistic way. I'm impressed! The gameplay is a bit slow, but that could be compensated by implementing more 'rain'-mechanics (Thunderbolt?).

Well done!

The paletting on the graphics is quite well done. I feel like the meteors fall too slow for me to really feel engaged at all, and I would've liked an explosion sound effect.

Interesting :)

Interesting idea but if the terrain rendering works the way I think it does then you might be slaughtering your performance with that method.

A mix between the chip graphics of Minecraft and the vengeful God-like destruction of Populous. Death is here and he is hell-bent on wreaking havoc. Maybe different forms of disasters could have added longevity to this game.

Would recommend.

Holy jiminy shit I love your graphics! Such pretty pixels! Would play any number of games in your strange world :)

Crashed at first then, the second time, it froze my computer and I had to restart it :/
I use an OSX.

Game crashes on start up after playing music, specifically M.O.O.N.'s "Hydrogen", which you may recognize from Hotline Miami.

I unfortunately couldn't get the game to function. It started up as a black screen and that was it. Looks like a really interesting concept though.

Awesome game! It seems to require a lot from the computer, but I was able to play it. Great loading screen, concept, graphics and music! Maybe some more sound effects of explosion and people screaming? But even without them it's awesome!

It loads, music starts playing but then it crashes. Graphics driver lost contact with... something.

Really well put together! Love the shader or whatever you used to get that look. Hehe I could play this all day... much explosion, very boom, wow.

Also doesn't want to run for me - loads a black screen, music starts, then CtD. A shame, because I really want to try this one.
