Great work...\r597 was my score...\rI did notice that the projectiles have some extra pixels at the edge of the sprite when fired in certain directions (like right) and the hitbox seemed a little big...\r\rMusic is pretty well fitting too, and the sounds are not harsh or annoying..."},{"author_name":"wavertron","author_uid":"45908","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 10:53am","epoch":1418035680,"text":"Really great look to it. I just wish you could hold down the mouse button to shoot repeatedly, too much clicking. Maybe one alternate\/powerup weapon would have been nice to add some variety. Graphics 5 stars, nice and distinctive look."},{"author_name":"dekart","author_uid":"14826","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 11:25am","epoch":1418037600,"text":"The art and music are awesome as well as the dynamics! Probably opponents are too large and move too fast for such small screen, especially wasps. Some indication of being hit would help too because it's hard to understand when I've successfully escaped attack and when I was hit."},{"author_name":"SneManden","author_uid":"16779","time":"Dec 8, 2014 @ 8:09pm","epoch":1418069040,"text":"Nice game! :) Really like the pixel-art-work! Slick font too. Everything seems to work really well.\r\rOne thing though: probably use a different key than "fire" to start over when you die. (I immediately skipped to see what score I got; around wave 14.)\r\r[+1 for using Phaser ;)]"},{"author_name":"pancakecity","author_uid":"28537","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 12:27am","epoch":1418084520,"text":"This game looks very good, and plays well! I like the sound effects of the creatures when they die, also.\r\rI wish there were plain arrow key controls in addition to WASD, for those of us with non-standard keyboard layouts."},{"author_name":"madameberry","author_uid":"14549","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 2:10am","epoch":1418090700,"text":"Really like the graphics here!

Graphic and music fit perfectly with the game. I like the one hit kill too.\r\rI died after wave 13 just because my finger got tired of clicking.
