My train of thought as I played:\r<br\/>Oh wow, this looks sweet! Gogogo! Oooooh yeah, shooting! I'm gonna shoot shiny things! What's that static effect? Ooooh, more shiny things in the distance! Can I move? (press every button on the keyboard) Aww man, never mind; what do I do then? Oh damn! Looks like I'm losing health! Where are the enemies? There! There's an enemy! That must be what that static was! Shit, that boy's fast! Uhuh, I'm running low!\r<br\/>And then I died. 3 stars sir, nice work!"},{"author_name":"gilmore606","author_uid":"22003","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 12:29am","epoch":1367281440,"text":"Really nice work, lots of nice visual candy.  Fun game although I think the freezing of controls during the static was frustrating.

Not knowing where the enemies were was frustrating. Great work!"},{"author_name":"larb","author_uid":"17860","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 12:53am","epoch":1367282880,"text":"Really cool, great job. I wish there was more to it. \r<br\/>\r<br\/>I got stuck in a win loop bug, where starting a game just jumped to the you win screen every time."},{"author_name":"timtipgames","author_uid":"15341","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 3:21pm","epoch":1367334960,"text":"I dig the psychedelic graphics :) Only the &quot;you got hit&quot; effect was kind of disturbing.

Kinda wish I could fly around, but it's still fun. The enemies look awesome. The sound is very nice too. Great job on the visuals, it's beautiful in a kind of 80's retro way."},{"author_name":"scottychips","author_uid":"7855","time":"Apr 30, 2013 @ 7:58pm","epoch":1367351580,"text":"Hey guys, thanks for all the great feedback. I had a rudimentary flight going but I scrapped it cause it didnt feel right. The source is there though if anyone else wants to add stuff!"},{"author_name":"pansapiens","author_uid":"198","time":"May 1, 2013 @ 1:07am","epoch":1367370120,"text":"Hey, nice work, this plays pretty well, and looks quite good (I'm a sucker for those gem shaders too :) ). I'm going to take a peek at the source to see how you did those moving clouds too - great effect.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The music fits well enough but I think the sound is a weak point - since sfxr\/bfxr is such a popular tool, you need to work to make sure the sounds don't turn out sounding like obnoxious presets &amp; fit their role (not that I haven't been guilty of this). In particular, the shooting sound is a little loud and harsh, but important to get right since you hear it so often. But really I'm just nitpicking since it's otherwise a great compo entry."},{"author_name":"MinionStudios","author_uid":"22273","time":"May 3, 2013 @ 3:48pm","epoch":1367595780,"text":"HA!
