Didn't expect multiple levels and bosses. I only got as far as the pentagon boss. Really cool idea, but kinda hard to figure out what to do in the beginning, not knowing how to progress. But turns out it's really cool if you stick with it. Good job on the sounds too, they fit the game well."},{"author_name":"Paul Sinnett","author_uid":"11312","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 12:15am","epoch":1367453400,"text":"Nice use of colour and fractal triangles."},{"author_name":"Xanjos","author_uid":"21201","time":"May 2, 2013 @ 12:25am","epoch":1367454000,"text":"Absolutely loved the music and the gameplay concept was quite interesting.

It could definitely use some explanation and\/or tutorial at the start, however. I only gave it a second chance after reading some of the comments here, and I'm glad I did.\r<br\/>I love how the information is displayed - the weapons on each side of your shape, the recharge time being clearly displayed and your health dependent only on the color. The visuals and sound in general were strong, and (oddly) reminded me of Everyday Shooter. The bosses (the ones I got to, anyway) were well designed, and while it was difficult it rarely felt unfairly so. Great game."},{"author_name":"stqn","author_uid":"2181","time":"May 21, 2013 @ 12:02am","epoch":1369094220,"text":"@jamioflan: yes, openjdk7.
