I had to check the comments to figure out the numpad was in use not the standard 1-2-3. Not a common control choice."},{"author_name":"zzapp","author_uid":"55441","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 2:39am","epoch":1461119640,"text":"Goodjob, I liked the gameplay and idea. I think you should consider adding alternate keys for the attacks though, numpad isnt the most convenient for a lot of users."},{"author_name":"nextreality","author_uid":"51893","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 3:42am","epoch":1461123420,"text":"So I liked the music a lot in this game, specifically the intro screen! The graphics for the game were simple, but I liked them, and I think that the transforming bullets thing goes very well with the theme! Agin music is great and helped through the many deaths :P"},{"author_name":"retrograze","author_uid":"92057","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 6:07pm","epoch":1461175320,"text":"Thank you all so far for your helpful comments and feedback! Yes, I was going to put different controls in (using j,k, and l instead of numbers), but it was gettting too close to the deadline and unfortunately I can't change it! Thank you so much for all the support though!"},{"author_name":"retrograze","author_uid":"92057","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 6:32pm","epoch":1461176820,"text":"UPDATE: I know that I cannot edit the game files while still in the competition (it's against the rules), but on my itch.io page, I have updated the game to support J, K, and L buttons for shooting!

I liked the graphics, humor and sound ;)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>There's a &quot;development build&quot;  label on the bottom right corner that gets in the way and covers your in game score.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>You probably didn't have time for this, but it'd be great to have a feedback when you hit the enemy with the wrong shape and when you hit but don't destroy it"},{"author_name":"MayankUnreal","author_uid":"90244","time":"Apr 26, 2016 @ 8:07pm","epoch":1461700920,"text":"The idea and game design os pretty cool.
