I really love the tune shader You used. Game has very fun mood.
Sweet, sweet revenge.
The controls definitely left something to be desired.
The aiming is implemented relative to the *camera*'s viewpoint, not the player's, which means pointing "down" will produce a different trajectory depending on where the player is on the field. It made sense when play testing on a gamepad but far less so on a keyboard.
I also think using Unity's physics to control the player was a mistake. It's far too slow to react. Next time :)
The gameplay is fun and the pacing is pretty good. I think I'd prefer it with more acceleration (with maybe a lower max speed) though.
