Did you make all the models yourself? In that amount of time? If so, well done sir! Nice job.

Intro is good, audio worked well, funny and good theme, great opening. Was a bit disappointed it had all these 3d effects but then ended up being top down only. Graphics seemed a bit laggy on certain explosion effects. I think I ran out of power in the tutorial and couldn't proceed.

Game looks really nice, and the voice acting adds a nice touch. The gameplay is pretty cool too!

This was great! Really well polished. The models look really sweet, the music was great, and the gameplay was quite unique, along with fitting the theme well. Good stuff.

Looks funny enough, but that framerate.... Controls feel unique enough, but I can't play games that dip below 10fps on my (quite powerful) laptop.

I love the graphics! Reminds me of late 90s pc titles. Voicework was killer too. I like the tractor beam mechanic too.

The intro was funny and the voice acting was great. The game got repetitive quickly, but overall it was fun.

The game looks pretty cool but I thought it played a little slow. I can see you put a lot of stuff into it so good job!

I'm the worst trash man :(
Controls took some getting used to, but the intro was cute.

This was pulled off very well, you know your way around UE. I think a different camera angle would have made it more appealing to me. Voice overs made me grin! The enemies should have had a bit more variety in spawn locations. When I died on Wave 3 I didn't want to play it again because I had just dashed back and forth between those points so many times.

Cool game, great intro. The turning of the ship felt a little too fast, maybe the mouse sensitivity is too high? Excellent work overall.

Nice take on the theme, and neat gameplay.
My compliments to the voice actor, top notch!

The music is fantastic!! Did you start the game before the jam? It is a really good work, and more if it fits completely the 72 hours. Keep working guy, you are good!!

@reiknight thanks, glad you liked it. I did not start the game before the jam. All assets and code were created during the 72 hours.

Solid entry! I love the commentary - although I cringed a little when he said "unconventional weapon", lol. Beautiful cut scenes, game play got a little repetitive after a while. Could have used something other than a top-down view. Overall this entry was surprisingly polished, incredible job! 5/5 Audio/graphics

Great job. I had some troubles understanding the controls at the start, but then I got it. Nice music and loved the intro :D

Took me a while to realize the red thing I was supposed to ram was the side of the other ship and not the big red ball. I do like the concept of a tractor beam as a principle "weapon".

great introduction. The tutorial text is to ofast and the first time I was blocked not knowing why clicking on ship dont do anything ( the F message appears a very short time ) Appart of that the weapon mechanic is unique and truely fun to play. Well done. Maybe the background music is a bit repetitive.
