Very nice game. My only issue is how fast you rotate, If the game didn't have such polish I would have given up on it earlier. The shake when you fire the particle effects are great but it is impossible to control the space ship.

The game it's fun, but it super hard to control, great work tho!

Wonderful aesthetic, from the title to the effects in-game! I particularly liked the arrow to nearest enemy/pickup and the subtle zoom-out as your speed increases.

I agree with Barelos's comment - I had trouble rotating the ship to control it precisely, and my preferred battle strategy was to grab the dual gatling and just spin in place and fire rapidly. Maybe a bit more inertia/momentum would help?

The BGM was surprisingly chill for an arcade game like this, but I enjoyed it. Great work!

Great camera effect while flying around, I really enjoyed this.

At first I thought the turning was too fast but especially at high speed it was actually perfect to make nifty turns.

Flying was very enjoyable and shooting was cool. Nice little detail that the enemies bullets/astroids could also collide with other enemy bullet and be destroyed this way

Really AWESOME soundtrack!

👍

Yeah the rotating input was way too sensitive for my liking but overall pretty solid graphics a sounds effects.

Nice action game! I love the recoil effects and the sounds. That side gun was too hard for me to use, though…

I had fun trying this out! The turning felt way too fast to me also, but otherwise everything worked nicely. I like the variations in the guns. Music and sounds are good. Great job!

Love the art style. A bit too hard for me though.

I know that these kind of games were damn hard in the 80s but it bugs me that I cant zoom out xD my velocity is always so high that I randomly crash in something ^^ And some weapons I would like to keep or pick up specifically. But its a little addicting to fly around and shoot aliens :D

It was as hard as it was back in the days :-) I love the retro style and good job with the sounds!

Great sound effects and music ! The controls reflect 80's space shooter games maybe that's why it's so hard.
Greato Jobu! :smile:

Great game! The random weapons add a lot of variety to the game, even if there's only a couple enemy variations. All the particle effects make it look really nice and the sounds fit in perfectly. Nice work!

Very nice. Usually I hate games with this control scheme of "point and accelerate" (except for space simulators), but something about this game makes it work. The controls are surprisingly nimble and accurate, unlike many others which I have trouble using. I found these elements that make it exceptional in this game:

* Camera zoom relative to speed, which gives ample reaction time and one cue of current velocity
* Path trace with "timing dots", another cue of current velocity, plus one cue for acceleration
* Pointy shape of player, an excellent cue for current acceleration
* Target marker, which removes headache of navigating in void

So yeah, this game might not be the most innovative one, but its controls are really well done. Heck, I can even employ energy-fighting tactics! Simple, but well polished.

The art is simple but consistent and the music is really good. However, the controls took a lot of enjoyment out of this game for me, it felt impossible to navigate the way I wanted to due to how fast you rotate. I think this is a good game held back by an easily fixed flaw.

Nice simple art style, and fantastic audio. The controls are pretty hard, and every weapon except the shotgun and homing missile are really hard to use, and I was sad when I had to give them up to get more score. Still, the game is good, simple fun.

Very "juicy" impacts, really sells the fact that you're taking damage. Felt a little confused as to what was going on with the game mechanics for a bit, but yeah, generally a pretty solid 48 hour entry!

I like the concept, the art style and the audio! Unfortunately I absolutely suck at playing the game. I already have trouble picking up weapon crates and wouldn't dare to dream of actually competently killing enemies.
