Their might have been bonus points for catching a heart on the way down, but that wasn't clear to me.

It was planned that the player would have to pick up the returning shots, but I dropped that because it think it is too annoying. \n\n","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Duke","author_uid":"1139741","time":"2019-05-05T21:56:42Z","epoch":1557093402,"modified":1557093402,"text":"Really cool, well done! I really appreciate a good skill based fast shooter. The art is minimalistic but very well done. Cohesive and good looking. The color palette is well chosen. The music and sound effects are ok, nothing too special. This might be a missed opurtunity, because I think this could work really well as a kind of rhythm based music shooter. The whole grid already looks like a harp.\n\nThe controls were tight enough but I had some problems with shooting and moving in a short succession. the game often ate my movement action, right after I shot a heart, which was annoying because I was moving and shooting without looking at my heart. It was quite annoying to see, that the heart wasn't at the position I was expecting it to be. Also, would be nice if the heart could move with a pressed direction button. For example to move from one end of the stage to the other without hammering the direction key (basically like it works in tetris would be awesome, maybe just not that fast)\n\nJust a minor setback, but I think a real pixel font would've looked nicer than the one you used :)\nMy Highscore on my first round was 25102.

I will revise the movement part for the post combo release and let your hints flow in and of course there is then also a suitable pixel font. :smile: \n\nNo, there is no end.

The real strategy of the game definitely emerges once you get into it, as shooting in the order things come becomes a terrible idea. There were many times where I purposely waited before shooting just to see if there would be anything else coming so I could queue up some shots and then move to the other side of the screen. Great fun there.\n\nI agree with Duke that the movement controls feel a little big sluggish, and I found my self mashing quite hard near the end. Also, the music is quite great, which is why it's a shame it's mixed rather quietly.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"AVSC","author_uid":1147234,"time":"2019-05-06T02:10:18Z","epoch":1557108618,"modified":1557108618,"text":"This game needs a smaller resolution, the current one doesn't let me see the bottom of the screen so I can't see how many lives I have.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"DigitalLimestone","author_uid":"1122540","time":"2019-05-06T08:22:58Z","epoch":1557130978,"modified":1557130978,"text":"Awesome game!
