You control a spaceship and as you progress by killing enemy ships, the more enemy ships will come after you. The game is simple, yet it feels pretty nice to play and as a first game its great. The graphics, music and visual effects are very fitting, but I\u2019d love for the game to be a little more difficult. \n\nThe game is obviously a little unfinished but I\u2019d love to see you continue with this project and add different types of enemies, enemy projectiles, and progression for the player\u2019s own spaceship by adding different weapons. The way I remember it, the difficulty in the classic scrolling arcade space shooter games don\u2019t come from number of enemies, but from number of enemy projectiles.\n \nGood job!","likes":4,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"kerneltt","author_uid":"1001698","time":"2017-12-07T19:19:41Z","epoch":1512674381,"modified":1512674381,"text":"good game, felt a little repetitive but it was good","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"IllaBom","author_uid":"1015180","time":"2017-12-12T03:12:51Z","epoch":1513048371,"modified":1513048388,"text":"The art and sound are very good, it could use some more content and don't store your games on google.

I really like the music and the game was quite challenging but here some suggestions on how you could improve on it:\n\n- Highscore! Maybe even a Highscore table (I died and I didn't even get to look at my score :( )\n- Feedback when you get hit (I think it also lacks a sound effect?)\n- Different enemy behavior\n\nAnd a HTML5 version (this was made with unity, right?) would've been great as people tend to have issues in downloading a \"random\" executable from the net :)\n\nOh most of the things I complained about are in my shoot-em-up too and especially in the compo version :D","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Erkberg","author_uid":"1000213","time":"2017-12-26T15:28:25Z","epoch":1514302105,"modified":1514302105,"text":"An entertaining game with a good presentation. Visuals, audio and the controls are all very nice. Unfortunately there is not enough variety to continue playing for longer (I got bored around 25k points). If you want to continue development, the next steps would be more enemy types, upgrades and some bosses.  \nNonetheless I enjoyed this a lot, good job!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"SaraMartins","author_uid":"1009959","time":"2017-12-27T01:32:30Z","epoch":1514338350,"modified":1514338417,"text":"Good game, fast paced and with tons of adrenaline. The sound helped create the perfect mood. The visual effects were cool too.\n\nI think the connection to the theme is not that clear. The number of badies was increasing but I only saw two sizes of badies, and it didn't evolve from there. I think the game needs a better progression in terms of difficulty to relate better to the theme. A boss would be a cool feature too.\n\nDue to this linear gameplay, one ends up doing the same thing pretty fast, which can get a bit boring. Also, I died and respawned immediatelly, without no warning. I would have liked to at least check my score.\n\nSome hit feedback, like ship or screen turning red, would be nice to have, but not crucial.\n\nOverall it was fun to play, the fast pacedness helps the game shine. Great work :)\n\nAlso, we'd love if you played our game :) https:\/\/ldjam.com\/events\/ludum-dare\/40\/santas-factory","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"oxysoft","author_uid":"1001240","time":"2017-12-27T19:39:54Z","epoch":1514403594,"modified":1514403594,"text":"Enjoyable shmup, not much content unfortunately. Acceleration on the player's ship makes it hard to navigate, shmup controls need to be extremely tight. Music was rad, although it was a bit in the background. Funny remark, I actually entered a LD game a year or two ago with the exact same name \"Space Baddies\".

Being able to shoot the powerups is frustrating though, it makes the player hesitant to shoot which is probably not what you want in a shmup. Also the movement hitbox for the player felt really big, like I couldn't go back as far as I expected. Could use some more feedback for when you take damage too.

Enemies could be more menacing I guess, at first I didn't realize they were enemies and not powerups or something.
