The achievements page is a nice touch. Very cool

I like the concept! Nicely done!
However, I am not sure why shooting a nuke doesn't just make it explode...

I could hold the bomb in the corner pretty easily. It would be good if the player is kept away from it. But it was fun to play!

Fun idea, but You can easily just shoot in one direction (diagonally) and stuck the bomb in the corner. It will not drop until you speed click it.

Good stuff, I would have liked the trampoline to last longer and the GUI is great!

Straightforward and effective game! The graphics and music sell the concept while the achievement page is a nice touch. As other reviews have mentioned, the fire rate is high enough that its possible to push the bomb into a corner and to prevent it from falling. Perhaps, if this game were to be polished, the bullets would cause a small amount of damage that would heal over time to disincentivize spamming the shot.

Overall, great job

I've clearly enjoyed the game, it is a fun concept and I must admit, that I spent longer than I originally intended, trying to better my highscore. Great job!

Pretty cool idea. Adding in achievements is really cool, and it would be nice if it got harder somehow.

Solid take on a classic genre. I found I could wedge the bomb into the top corner and just periodically shoot it to keep it there, maybe needs a little polish on the movement mechanic. Good job

This game is addictive! I ended up playing a lot more rounds than I expected, going for all the achievements. The music is nice and fits the mood. My only gripe is that power ups weren't worth it most of the time imo, since going for them might make me drop the bomb. Maybe if the power up boxes were larger?
