Really soothing soundtrack, nice work. The gameplay is ok at first but it gets repetitive, if you add more levels or difficulties i would definitely play it again, well done!"},{"author_name":"BarkingCat","author_uid":"34938","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 10:48pm","epoch":1461019380,"text":"Quite good billboard 3D, I never managed to make one as fluid as this one, great job!

A very good first LD entry. It took me a while to realize I could move up and down. I've been meaning to make a game with this retro 3D feeling for a long time. Anyway I thought that maybe adding a boss battle (just one) and another type of enemy would have improved this game. Thank you for playing and rating my game too, I'm working on getting rid of some bugs that I've found and prevented people from finishing the game."},{"author_name":"lkr","author_uid":"42013","time":"Apr 19, 2016 @ 11:16pm","epoch":1461107460,"text":"Pretty fun game with a cool retro feel to it, along with some nice background music :)\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Would have been neat to see more fleshed out - maybe a post-compo version?"},{"author_name":"TheCain","author_uid":"87568","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 3:32am","epoch":1461209220,"text":"It was ok. I liked the music, but the combat was a little weird because of the perspective, and the polarity shift seemed superficial.\r<br\/>But, it did have a nice feel to it, and looked pretty good."},{"author_name":"Hempuli","author_uid":"491","time":"Apr 21, 2016 @ 9:37pm","epoch":1461274320,"text":"I liked the perspective effect and the smooth enemy patterns. The game felt like it had promise but it didn't really get harder so there wasn't much to do after the first impressions.

I like the billboard graphic style, this works very well. Controls feel direct and the music is nice.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>The only thing that would need some improvement is the font in the main menu. Too small and hard to read (white on bright blue) but that's just a minor compaint. Well done :)"},{"author_name":"hpearson2","author_uid":"64684","time":"May 3, 2016 @ 2:09am","epoch":1462241040,"text":"I get ZZDC Error, libmikmod error :\/"},{"author_name":"CarlsonAndPeeters","author_uid":"28902","time":"May 3, 2016 @ 5:46am","epoch":1462254060,"text":"Love the visual style!
