But my god are the enemies in level 2 tough.\r<br\/>A couple of suggestions: 1) why not have the player auto-shoot, since there seems to be no reason to ever stop shooting? 2) Maybe vary the pitch of the sounds on each play, they'll get less repetitive that way."},{"author_name":"Martin Enderleit","author_uid":"18859","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 10:26am","epoch":1460974860,"text":"Shooting is a bit too slow, and there doesn't seem to be much point to the shape shifting.

The flow is good, which is key to a bullethell shooter. I was unable to get passed the first boss because I'm really not great at twitch games, but I did feel that the difficulty went from dead easy to OHMYGOD the moment the boss came on screen.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Given how fast you need to move, I didn't think that the square was viable. Maybe that's just me.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Excellent graphics, I really like the transition animation!"},{"author_name":"kostasvs","author_uid":"44550","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 9:49pm","epoch":1461102240,"text":"Looks well done for a first-time game, good job! I didn't really see much use for the square form, maybe it needs faster rate of fire to be useful compared to the triangle. Some music would do it good, you can't have a good infinite shooter without music!"},{"author_name":"vctr_seleucos","author_uid":"40130","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 9:15am","epoch":1461143400,"text":"Some music and more enemies would be lovely, good job!"},{"author_name":"Black Horn Studios","author_uid":"50908","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 3:08pm","epoch":1461164580,"text":"Nice game, congrats for complete."},{"author_name":"hpearson2","author_uid":"64684","time":"Apr 20, 2016 @ 6:25pm","epoch":1461176400,"text":"Score: 10,120\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Triangle was much easier than square and didn't have much reason to switch.

I didn't like that much the regular enemies' attack, but the bossfight is really fun. Those patterns were classic but very well timed and shaped. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>However, I didn't feel the need of changing shape. I think the higher speed of the triangle ship is a downside rather than an advantage. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>Anyway, great job for a first game! congrats ;)"},{"author_name":"JuDelCo","author_uid":"15035","time":"Apr 23, 2016 @ 4:40pm","epoch":1461429300,"text":"2nd &quot;world&quot; went CRAZY full of bullets impossible to dodge.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>15000 ~  my score :P"},{"author_name":"Louspirit","author_uid":"55260","time":"Apr 26, 2016 @ 11:33am","epoch":1461670080,"text":"I made 6510.
