And an achieveable goal.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I personally wasn't a big fan of the drawing style too...\r<br\/>\r<br\/>If you're planning on continuing this, you should try to design levels and place enemies in certain places rather than having them randomly appear."},{"author_name":"phi","author_uid":"20723","time":"May 17, 2014 @ 7:50am","epoch":1400312700,"text":"A game plot is useless if there is no goal.

The level is not that big, and to me it wasn't really fun to just shoot at the aliens that kept coming, refilling my health and then dying. Maybe that was also a thing because there was blood in it though, and I can't stand to kill things when there is blood in it. That's just my personal preference though. I did like the music."},{"author_name":"Andrei M\u00fcller","author_uid":"19796","time":"May 17, 2014 @ 10:04am","epoch":1400320740,"text":"@607\r<br\/>Thanks for the comment! I composed the music. ;)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>To tell you the truth, the alien deaths were intended to be even more gruesome! \r<br\/>\r<br\/>The heads of the aliens would fall off instead of simply disappear, and they would even had a random chance of exploding!

It was a nice touch that you could jump on the aliens to reach higher platforms, but I think it takes too many hits to kill each alien. It'd be nice to have a variable height jump too (short press for a small jump, long press for a high jump) or even a double jump. And maybe zoom the camera out a bit more, so you can fit more action on the screen. Overall I'd say it's not that polished yet, but it's a solid start &amp; the core gameplay is fun."},{"author_name":"Harsay","author_uid":"17616","time":"May 17, 2014 @ 11:55am","epoch":1400327400,"text":"Dat camera."},{"author_name":"Cambrian_Man","author_uid":"4198","time":"May 17, 2014 @ 2:54pm","epoch":1400338140,"text":"Oh man, so many aliens!

The variable height jump is a great idea, also! I'll try to implement it later. =)"},{"author_name":"pichifino","author_uid":"36836","time":"May 18, 2014 @ 11:34am","epoch":1400412540,"text":"Nice game"},{"author_name":"foolmoron","author_uid":"36186","time":"May 18, 2014 @ 9:12pm","epoch":1400447220,"text":"Surprisingly sharp and responsive gameplay.
