It had a very nice pace and was effectively balanced. The best part was where the house fell over, which came right after five blue carrier-looking ships overwhelmed me. Does the game have an ending, or does it just get impossible? Good music, and a very fun arcadey type game. It kind of goes to show that a really simple concept of &quot;shoot enemies before they get to this place&quot; can be entertaining if executed well."},{"author_name":"jeroenimooo","author_uid":"9361","time":"Apr 24, 2012 @ 5:20pm","epoch":1335287700,"text":"NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM! hahah was fun to play."},{"author_name":"Valeour","author_uid":"2679","time":"Apr 24, 2012 @ 7:17pm","epoch":1335294720,"text":"Haha, definitely one of my favourites so far, that was fantastic."},{"author_name":"Lucas Tiridath","author_uid":"5505","time":"Apr 24, 2012 @ 8:34pm","epoch":1335299340,"text":"Hahaha great fun and very amusing!
