Awesome ! Thanks for letting us choose how the camera behaves ! I love the fact that you can shoot in all sorts of directions. The sound design is incredibly good. I don't really understand why the audio shouts "too slow" when you jump into monsters, but anyway awesome game!

Very fun and smooth controls. I really like how I can learn the movement in the menu before I even start the game. The way the bullets go along the curve is really cool as well. Great job on this!

I dont know if its my headset glitching, but the shooting sound is lower on my right ear than on my left. I dont see any other comments about this tho so it might be a problem on my end.

Really fun game, I really like the graphics,I wish there was a downloadable version though, since running on browser lags a bit for me. Great Job!

This game is extremely polished and feels like a final release. The concept is cool and the game play is solid. The models and audio are also well done. Almost no complaints amazing job.

Why have you deactivaded the rating vor audio? I like the Audio an it fits really well!

@dampfwaltze thanks. We opted out of audio because some of our sound effecs are from a bought Humble-Bundle Audio Pack (e.g. the announcer). We did some of the music and sound effects ourself but felt like it might be unfair to compete with other games in that category.

Nice idea and pretty cool realization, but I think I too old for such hard games. :)

That was fun, but yeah it was really tough! Last level really threw me in for a loop. Pretty well polished and I appreciate the announcer guy yelling go at me. It was a little demoralizing to jump back 2 or 3 levels back to back for making a quick chain of mistakes, but the levels are quick enough anyway. Well done, folks! Oh and I beat it in 14 deaths!

Look great. Curving bullets added a bit to what you could do. If there's one suggestion I'd give it would be to make the player and enemy shots different colors. Things got crazy that last stage but not undoable at all.

Ooh oh ah oof, this is a too slow savage fatality. If you know what I mean. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

The visuals are very good and the sound atmosphere fits well with the game. I think it's a very good idea to go back to the previous level every time you fail. Good job =D

Oh, this was a clever idea! I loved the way I could prepare myself for the next lever that could be seen in the background. Also, not kicking the player out of the flow but just pushing him one level back was also a great move! Nice work with the game design!

This is a really cool game ! A little bit frustrating on the boss level but it's manageable. Great design and I love the "narrator". Keep up the good work !

The game really starts to get hard once the jump mechanics kick in. Cool concept. I really like the fact that you can see the loops ahead of you so you can sort of plan your next move. The fact that it only drops you one level when you lose means it doesn't feel too punishing either. I feel some of the center enemies could have some better markings of the direction they are going to shot before they fire, but other than that, good game!

This is amazing :sparkles: It is really much fun and yet challanging, especially at the end. And even then it's always compelling to continue playing. I like how you can shoot to the sides, too. Very unique gameplay! The little robot and the aliens look so nicely polished. Also I like the bullets, they are so beautiful glowey :two_hearts: The sound design is the cherry on top. Outstanding work, you guys! :star2:

Game is really fun! Loved the audio, I played on WebGL and the only thing I wish was there was audio slider. The graphics were really good as well. Overall enjoyed it a lot, wish there were a little more details on how to play, I was surprised when I died and only moved back up on level instead of having to restart entirely.

Fun and original game. I got to what i think was the final level but was too hard for me

Great work!

Wow, a nice looking good playing and great sounding game! Jumping was too much for me, but otherwise it is amazing especially for that short amount of time.

This is a cool universe you got there, I like the enemy model, and that voice acting is perfect ! It's a good game, even if it's not quite my type. I can't think of anything bad to say.
