It feels like if there were no enemies and the game's point was the navigation, then maybe it would be fine.

In my opinion, trying to shoot anything made this game extremely difficult.  If enemies only took a single shot I think it would be worth going after them.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Maybe all the variables in the game need to be lowered (player acceleration, shot speed, etc.)  It might play better, but wouldn't be what you were going for."},{"author_name":"Ozcr","author_uid":"44154","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 1:10am","epoch":1418087100,"text":"Cool."},{"author_name":"nickbasswright","author_uid":"45444","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 1:12am","epoch":1418087220,"text":"Super hard but that factored into the fun in my opinion.

Since it's a game where you die a lot, I would highly recommend having space rather than P start the game from the menu so that the player doesn't have to move around on the keyboard. You want the players to keep trying.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Getting time to shoot the ships was hard too, I found it a distraction and that the best option was to fly past them quickly. It doesn't matter so much though, but maybe reward killing them more by having them die faster.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>A solid entry all in all."},{"author_name":"lurumdurum","author_uid":"45930","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 1:41pm","epoch":1418218560,"text":"Even though it's pretty hard, and there is not much too it: I just had to finish it!

The health wasn't really that useful, since the best approach was to simply ignore the turrets if you hoped to finish in time.  The worst part was that sometimes touching the walls killed you, sometimes it didn't.  You would usually not dying if you set the ship down gently on a wall, but sometimes you'd explode anyway.  It would be nice if you just lost health when you collided with walls."},{"author_name":"EvanEGibbs","author_uid":"45698","time":"Dec 11, 2014 @ 3:57am","epoch":1418269920,"text":"Oh my gosh!
