What is this game?
No really, you tell me, because I have no idea.

Use the arrow keys to shoot. Collect the "drugs" for a powerup. Your goal is to convert the heathens.

A complete LSD trip.
Unplayable though. Power-ups didn't work and I only heard moans.

The messages that scroll on screen go ridiculously fast for me, perhaps you forgot to multiply the speed with a delta? (Game runs at ~350fps for me)

Also not sure which "drugs" are the right one? I keep dying and was also not able to try again without restarting the game?

Loved the music and background shifting (although you might want to put an epilepsy warning :-)

What the fuck did I just play ayy lmao? Yea you might want to use delta time because the game runs at 800 FPS for me, and I can't control anything. As far as graphics and music go, top quality.

Text is too fast to read, had to take screenshots lol. I think I won? Not sure, but it sure was weird.

Really interesting concept and visuals.

So my comp is a beast and I think you made the scroll go with the speed of the screen rate rather than time, so it just shot by a bunch of times. Honestly thought it was some subliminal message or something so I screenshotted to read it xD Also, the game is unplayable. Unless I'm doing something wrong, I just see the acid trip effect with music, arrow keys don't seem to do anything :/

The banner is a bit to fast, you don't know when you lost.

Hey man, i just read your comment on my game(pong) and would like you to provide me with some extra info if possible since i would like to make the game playable for all(just reply on my game so this chat won't get spammed).
I also played your game, quite decent but strange. try to use more detaltime next time instead of just framrate :P

Seemed to run a bit fast for me, although I don't know if it matters, maybe it just adds to the experience :P. The music was pretty dope.

It was interesting. Unfortunately I could never get close to the powerups to see what they did. You pretty much get insta-killed if you are anywhere close to the middle.

A bit weird, hahahaha! I played a few times, made it until 3% and then couldn't shoot anymore.

I shouldn't comment, but I shall.
Super weird, and not in a good way. but not in a bad way either.
I bet you made the text scroll that fast on purpose.
