I second the comment from @mikoziq. Win 10, Chrome. The loading bar stops with just a wee bit to go :/

I tried playing it as well but it kept getting stuck. Unless... that was your intention? Stuck in an endless loop! Ahhhhh!!!!!1

Nice game! It was very hard (I couldn't pass the third wave), but rather satisfying. I really liked the minimalist art style - it gives the game a very distinct look. It was a bit unclear at first (I only noticed the instructions on the ith.io page after a couple of tries), so maybe you can add the instructions to the game/Ludum Dare page? Other than that, it was great!

Web build works! Was fun for a bit, although the difficulty could have started a bit easier.

I really like the main idea but I feel like the powerups were a bit useless but maybe I just wasn't using them right.

The controls were very nice, but the difficulty was a bit much for me at the beginning. I liked the mechanic of speeding up reducing your health. Overall a very fun game!

That Loop 4 though XD

This was a fun arcade shooter! A very simple but satisfying mechanic. I think a next addition (or maybe a power up) would be more control over the loop, like maybe the radius or speed. But maybe you want the player to be challenged >:)

I have to say, our aesthetics turned out similar! I like minimalistic design. And the particle effects on destroying the enemy were really cool. Great job!

Nice shooter! The difficulty ramps up pretty quickly!

Fun concept, as mentioned in earlier comments some more control over the loop in later waves would be fun, the music was a bit repetitive but still somewhat suiting to the game. I enjoyed playing this game, simple and straight forward :)
