That being said, the inability to know where enemies were going to be while at the same time being in basically constant motion made progression rather difficult. Also, only have 1 projectile at a time at a cost of 3 powerups made it difficult to get a useful shot off. Mostly its the fact that your enemy is invisible most of the time that got me killed. Still, a great submission. Thanks for posting!"},{"author_name":"gkxd","author_uid":"62948","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 2:02am","epoch":1450144620,"text":"The invisible enemies are a bit difficult to get used to.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Also, it seems that there are safe spots in the corners of the screen where you can get high scores without doing anything."},{"author_name":"Suui","author_uid":"66156","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 2:07am","epoch":1450144920,"text":"Thanks for the feedback. Seems that it may be a bit too difficult.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Yes, the corners are pretty safe and easy high scores, we may limit the player movement to the center to solve it someday as we haven't got more time.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Just go all in and keep taking blue cells and killing enemies :P"},{"author_name":"NidzaKornjaca","author_uid":"56576","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 1:12pm","epoch":1450184820,"text":"The radar mechanic is pretty cool.

I'd like to know the artist and the song.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>In other games I've seen with a similar radar mechanic the camera and the radar follow the player character.

There are some invisible enemies lying around!\r\n\r\nThanks to your radar, you are able to see them for a second, every 3 seconds. Check it out, because they are moving back and forth, and sometimes stop.\r\n\r\nThe blue cells allow you to grow. For every 3 cells consumed you will grow a little, and thus gain the ability to shoot a projectile for each growth.\r\n\r\nShoot 'em out to gain some extra score points, the blue cells you retrieve also give you some score, and finally your time is added to get the complete score.\r\n\r\nGood luck and have fun!\r\n\r\nKnown bug: Sometimes you kill an enemy but you can't see it dying. If the sound is played, he is certainly dead, it's just that you don't see the visual :)","title":"Phantom Cell"}
