This was... a bit weird. I didn't find anything to do. Also, as the game is in full-screen, it should feature an exit option. As of now, I had to alt-tab my way out. :)

Sorry about the full-screen, Alt+F4 should work, or Alt+tab.
If everything else fails, control-alt-delete and kill the process.

Oh and, most importantly: shoot those walls down!

I absolutely love this game. First off its just beautiful, the colors and lights draw me in instantly. It feels like you're underwater. Even though I'm not very good with the controls I do like the simplicity of one mouse click to alternate movement and attack

Nice game, these graphics! [insert dat ass meme]
The music fits the game and I chuckled a little at the boss.

The alternate firing and moving is hard to get used to.

I couldn't find anything to do either. No enemies? Also, the physics/movement seemed a bit funky. Some cool graphics though.

There are ennemies, just get in there! (Break that wall!)
seantheartist, thanks for the nice comment!
Sparrow, I hesitated a lot about that at first.

Great music and art style. Interesting control idea, single button. Took some time to get used to. Sadly game crashed when I was monster ring trying to escape.

Sorry, it does crash allot... for no apparent reason--> LD side-effects!

This was pretty neat. Cool lighting effects, cool moody music, interesting control scheme. Like others said it was a little hard to figure out what to do at first- something as simple as a little message at the beginning might help with that. And yeah, the game seemed to crash randomly, so I had to stop playing it! But great job, I hope you develop it further!

The game itself was ok, but the lack of exit option really bothered me. I played this on my mac, and I had to restart the mac by pressing the power button to exit out of your game.

Interesting control scheme. I wish there were some more enemies to make the beginning of the game more interesting. Couldn't really figure out how to kill the boss either. Great vibe though.
