Although auto-fire made it easier, I found myself wanting a fire button to time the mortar shots when I had that component. And it seems like 1 & 2 should control the left and right thrusters so I can steer after losing the rudder. \n\nI enjoyed the game and I hope you continue to work on it. :)","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"arron-fowler","author_uid":"1052870","time":"2018-04-26T14:08:09Z","epoch":1524751689,"modified":1524751689,"text":"@adsilcott Thanks for your comment. I will continue to make it, there is so much on my list still to do. I am intending to make all thrusters switchable and for the weapons to be fired manually - time got the better of me. I am continuing to work on it and will post something closer to my intention when it gets done. Most of the work is done, it's just the correct implementation to do. Should the craft have limited steering when the Rudder is off in addition to the thrusters? I am on the fence as to whether to give some minor control and would value your opinion.

It just says I must not die but then there is no score at the end and what everything is is really unclear to me. It looks like some kind of tower defense with those things shooting at me.\n\nThe graphics look cool, as I said I cannot really tell what is what but it looks really cool nonetheless :-)\n\nThe music is upbeat and fits the strange setting.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"arron-fowler","author_uid":"1052870","time":"2018-05-01T14:39:15Z","epoch":1525185555,"modified":1525185555,"text":"@gonutz All fair points.

For my game I actually intended to make it a jump n run shooter instead of a static screen shooter (I think it still says 2D-SIDE-SCROLLING game which it is actually not) but I had not time either :-)\n\nIf you create an updated version, maybe you could @gonutz me. I would love to play the final result :-)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"EkkoEkko","author_uid":"1078025","time":"2018-05-02T10:18:59Z","epoch":1525256339,"modified":1525256339,"text":"I think its better if you reduce the sensitivity of the control but for overall the game is cool i love the 3d models that you use its look like Tron legacy.

Most of the things you managed to do is quite well done and interesting, I like a lot the graphics, it give to the game a cool vibe and feel. The weird control schemes is hard to control but original, and can lead to a very interesting gameplay. \nIn fact the major flaw is the difficulty, I didn't managed to destroy a single tower. Being able to aim, or better weapon would be better. \nAnyway, good job overall, enjoyed a lot your game !","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Lukesta","author_uid":"1002421","time":"2018-05-04T16:49:47Z","epoch":1525452587,"modified":1525452587,"text":"I really liked the simple but kinda unique artstyle.
