Simple and works, also the fact that objectives change is really cool. I don't like how you spawn in the middle of the air every level, the sound effects are horrible to listen to for more than 10 bullets and the bg music is a bit repetitive. Still, it's simple and quite fun.

I didn't really like the movement, and it was kinda of glitchy (for example, getting pinned against the wall).

I love the pyhsics of the bullets. But didn't like the movements :D

Not sure if all the tasks are solveable.. :)

Was nice how the objectives kept changing. I felt the platforming was really slippery; it was hard to get between small gaps. Great work, though! :)

Had an incredible lag at times. Nice graphics, though.

It lags a bit after a while. Movement is ok but the shooting is odd.

If you're having slowness issues, you can try using a recent Chrome or Chromium build. It's much better there than in Firefox for me.

I had some nasty intermittent lag, even in chrome. Graphics were cool. Nice idea, and fun gameplay. It could definitely use some polishing.

The changing objectives and the switch of level architectures made this interesting.

I have to say using actual physics for bullets is really interesting. I'd almost be interested in an entire game where you have to work with bouncing bullets. :)

Pretty nice gameplay, but game has performance issues, if theres a lot of robots, and you constantly shoot, then framerate drops to like 2 fps. Graphics could use a little bit more work also

Simple, working, but lags a lot and aggressive audio unfortunately

Lagged my firefox down to like 2 FPS after a while... Garbage collecting troubles maybe? Graphics are nice, liked the splashscreen =)
