The core mechanic is really interesting and I can sense it has a lot of potential for further exploration. I'm excited to see that you're still working on it, so I'm going to give some detailed suggestions\/ideas I have.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>* The aesthetics are impressive for 48 hours but obviously they could still use some work. I suggest you add explosions and some techno music at the least.\r<br\/>* I can totally imagine your game with some visually pleasing 3D backgrounds like the BIT.Trip games have: http:\/\/gameitall.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/04\/btr21.jpg\r<br\/>* I think you could squeeze a lot more mechanical variation out of the central cylinder. For example: protruding walls\/spires for the player to crash into. These could also form tunnels and all kinds of other obstacle patterns. I'm thinking along the lines of Super Hexagon. You could also put enemy spawners in spots on the cylinder, or geisers that periodically spray lava upwards.\r<br\/>* When the level is rotating, the protrusions of the cylinder render with line shading that sometimes looks ugly. You might want to try and polish that:\r<br\/>http:\/\/imgur.com\/FecJ2Rk\r<br\/>* Other traditional shmup features could also improve your game, like health pickups, gun powerups, flight powerups, more variation in enemy types, etc.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>When I was playing, after I survived for a while the enemies just stopped coming.
