In fact, it's very well balanced, Major Pain has a good range of moves, great learning curve, and lives up to his name! Threat detector is a nice feature to start with, too.\r<br\/>Your interpretation of the theme seems similar to what I came up with, but yours comes across more clearly, and I really liked the power core being the &quot;discovered true important thing&quot; after she is deprived of all the other superfluous things (which actually, weren't as good). You made the theme ring true with the gameplay\/progression really well, which I don't know if our team entry quite managed. Top marks for that!\r<br\/>Just in terms of gameplay I'm not sure what was meant to happen with the power core, though: I just kinda ran into him. And a shame there was no ending screen, the art is cool! Nice feel, nice to play, and slick.\r<br\/>You should totally use SFXR next time round - it'd be ideal for sound effects for this kind of action shooter.\r<br\/>Great job!"},{"author_name":"pereubu","author_uid":"16143","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 4:59pm","epoch":1367513640,"text":"I like the idea, it was enjoyable to play, and nice art by the way :3"},{"author_name":"evilseanbot","author_uid":"7902","time":"May 3, 2013 @ 9:49am","epoch":1367574240,"text":"I really enjoyed the character designs and animation."},{"author_name":"enzo","author_uid":"2074","time":"May 5, 2013 @ 11:28pm","epoch":1367796180,"text":"Thanks for the comments, all!
