Have fun and leave a comment

Browser-Support:

- Best in Google Chrome
- loosely tested in Firefox(a little bit laggy)
- no idea of Safari, it is not available for windows in current version
- not hippster enough for Opera
- IE does not support WebGL

"Source - xhtml" links to the game without a website around it, so do not be alarmed, it will run, too.

Did a little performance improvement for FF on Wednesday, because this is somehow cross-plattform to me.

Nice use of WebGl, shall have a look at the sources!

I did seem to end up just holding S and strafing left and right, but even some AAA titles thesedays seem to be similar! Nice work, well done.

Wow, it runs really smooth, despite the number of bullets in the endgame. I also liked the effect of the changing environment and the "boss" enemies.

What you could improve is the discoverability, at first I just went around for one or two minutes before I realised I can shoot with the mouse. I also didn't discover that I can rotate until I already completed the game XD

@DustyStylus: WebGL gets totaly easy with the brilliant Three.js library

I enjoyed that game quite a lot. It was very fun. I liked how the level kept forming into a new one.

I was surprised when the level changed. It was a nice effect!

Started off a little slow, but ramped up after a while. Like the skill tree implementation.

I like how its 3D. I think you probably should have made the ai a little more than home in on the player. But other than that good game

At first i thought it was an bad endless shooter, but then the level changed so well it became really good :D (don't worry about the audio, i know how hard it is!) good job !

There's a sh*t load of work done here, well done! I spent a while playing it, and didn't even notice the time go by! Cheers!

I love that it uses WebGL, but the graphics are a bit too simplistic. After trying the game once, I saw the screenshot and realized there's a shopping menu in the game. That improved my impression of it a litte, but it's still not that interesting. I was surprised when the level changed the first time, but the gameplay is still a bit dull. The challenge is the limited view. Other than that you can just move in a circle with the mouse button pressed.

Nice game. I had fun playing it. It would have been nice to have more challenge though. I loved the terrain changes.

Didn't run for me in Chrome, but worked in Firefox. Though I couldn't aim while moving. Nice terrain!

Chrome on OSX crashes with the "oh snap" error on the page. Safari's just a white space where the game should be.
