Hollywood is Loomynarty by Sakaki

[raw]
made by Sakaki for LD36 (COMPO)
This is a game about how the ancient egyptician technology helped the loomynarties (23Δ) to create Hollywood.

The commands are simple :
Up: move foward
Down: nothing
Left: turns left
Right: turns right
Spacebar: shoots

Every action spends energy, the loomyship (the spaceship) is powered by shootingstars energy, so collect shooting stars to increase the energy.

Nothing more than survive and shoot, make some score and stuff. Enjoy!

Interesting intro, unfortunately not skippable, but the graphics are very nice. Sadly, I had wished that the actual gameplay had better controls, as the pivot point of the pyramid felt a bit odd, its turning speed is too low and too floaty, so it's hard not to overshoot the direction you want to shoot in. The aliens require a bit too many hits and the shit in general is too big for the screen. Nevertheless a solid entry :)

The intro was cute but t ran on, then it was asteroids without screenwrapping.

I loved that you can just straight ram the alien ships and cause them to bounce around like crazy though.

After the nice intro I expected a little more from gameplay. Really hard turning became more of a "move into them and hope that you wind up in a good direction" game. Ok, but not more I'm afraid.

I love the intro! A good game, but very difficult. I love how I can shoot space ships as a pyramid in space. Good job!

I loved the art style and the comic humour.

Anyway, I found hard to control the rotation of the spaceship in the game. But, hey, great game!

Man...Love the game especially the intro was very well design and well made. And to control you own pyramid LOL thats was great!

I played and the spaceships stopped comming. Is there an End to the game? Should I wait more ? I didnt know what to do afterwards.

This game needs little ajustment ( level maybe ) to me more commercial. Good Job.

@mvieira I actually don't know why they are stopping spawning, I'm trying to figure out the bug (is happenin on every export so may be something in the logic)

Omg, yea, Bollywood, lol. It seems to me that goal is not clearly defined in this game. The alien ships are just increasing in numbers and it seems that no matter how many you destroy there is no way to win...

Loved the intro, but it would be better if it could be skipped, because it gets boring on replay. I found it impossible to control the spaceship, it was spinning way too much.

But yeah, epic intro and really cool idea with the pyramid spaceship.
