I said out loud, &quot;ooh, this is cool&quot; within a few seconds of playing.  Love the smooth controls and polish you were able to add in 48 hours.  Great mechanic with using the enemy corpses as a resource to build.  This is my first 5 star overall rating.  Thanks for the great game!"},{"author_name":"local minimum","author_uid":"24765","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 6:26pm","epoch":1408990860,"text":"I really enjoyed the visuals and the controls were nice, but I never got anywhere near connecting my planet to one of the others. Quite a few enemies need killing to do that. So I would suggest having a little easier start, maybe some hearts one can kill for life-refill?"},{"author_name":"lokijki","author_uid":"772","time":"Aug 25, 2014 @ 7:24pm","epoch":1408994340,"text":"@local minimum - Yeah, meant to have a way to refill life in there somewhere but never got to it.

Also really nicely polished. Sound effects are good, gameplay is solid and art style is unique. Game mechanics work really well and like I just said, it feels really polished. Good concept and take on the connected worlds theme. And just like someone else commented, I also really enjoyed the little touches you added in such as the slight jag when you shoot and hit an enemy. I think so far this might be one of my favorite game submissions I played and tried out. Would like to see you take this further in the future. Great work! :)"},{"author_name":"Nuclear Napalm","author_uid":"38866","time":"Aug 29, 2014 @ 1:22pm","epoch":1409318220,"text":"Love the art-style! Shooting gameplay pretty enjoyable also.

It got really hard, really quickly though. I'd be fine against 1 or 2 enemies. Then suddenly like 4-5 would swarm me and I'd lose all my health almost instantly. Maybe some audio cues to let me know that enemies are spawning from else where.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Otherwise, a really really good submission. Actually fun.
