It's possible to just spam the shooting button faster than the opponent to win every time (or at least as far as I got which was 15 rounds). Also a bit an annoyance is that the shot is not fired in the direction you last pushed but in the direction you last moved (as in if you were moving in one direction and tapped the other direction and it only slowed you down, the bullets will still be going in the direction opposite of what you pressed)."},{"author_name":"Gazok","author_uid":"6609","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 6:38am","epoch":1355812380,"text":"Looks like it has the potential to be a really cool fighting game. Right now, it seems like it's too easy to just sit there and shoot in one direction, though. Also, a lot of the bullets blend in with the background :\/"},{"author_name":"crashbanito","author_uid":"18899","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 1:31pm","epoch":1355837160,"text":"The game can be fun for awhile, but it is ridiculously easy to cheat the AI into just standing there while you wail on them. The directions are a bit misleading as you can change weapons with more than just the 1-4 keys. The upper two unlockable powers are also a bit bugged in they don't highlight and the final bullet type doesn't seem to work."},{"author_name":"metadept","author_uid":"15489","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 3:19pm","epoch":1355843640,"text":"Runs smoothly and collision seems to work well. I didn't notice much of any difference between the weapon types and, as previous comments have mentioned, there should be a way to block\/reflect bullets."},{"author_name":"hadesfury","author_uid":"10263","time":"Dec 18, 2012 @ 3:30pm","epoch":1355844300,"text":"Interesting duel game. However it's way to easy. Once you win you become really too powerful and the enemy doesn't. Also the only way that the game addresses the theme is that the player is black and his healthbar is on the right. Love the background, though !"},{"author_name":"Muu?
