Aside from not really seeing the theme here, I did enjoy this one. It was a little vanilla, but it's a whole lot to do in two days. Bravo.

Huh, I could not see my score when I loose ^^ Because of the spam click, I did not see the tilescreen appears and the I clicked on quit ^^'

Overall cool game ! But I think the two genre are not that incompatible ^^

Keep coding :)

I don't know something about music loading doesn't work well on Linux. For me it works fine. Tanks anyway

Fun little game. I wish you could just hold the mouse button down and automatically shoot. It was a little easy for me, the game did not seem to get much harder after a certain point, and it could use some more variety.

Like the others mentioned, the theme wasn't there. Other than that there isn't much to say about the game, it was rather standard.

I lust for a way of shooting which does not involve spamming LMB, but the game was pretty fun. Like others have said, the theme is not present. Other than that, this is a pretty good entry!

Fun & challenging game. It was a bit too easy before I got to 2000 score but after that I think I broke my mouse trying to dodge and shoot all of the enemies. :D

good work on getting the game done in time. Not much in the way of going with the theme, but still it was functional and well built. The mechanics were very simple, but not in a bad way.

Great game ! Firing feels good and the combination of having to shoot the bad guys while doging the planes sure is thrilling and immediately engaging. Like the previous comments, I did not really see the link with the theme, but aside from that, you got yourself a nice lettle game !

On the aesthetical standpoint, the art is functional and the music works well as a loop (kudos for the firing sounds). All in all, good job !

Zero theme evident, but I really liked the AI and the zenlike fluidity of the shooting!

Pretty solid jam game! Pretty stressful dodging those planes. Theme is only one of the categories, so dont worry too much about what people are saying. I had a fun time. Though it was a little on the tough side for me! Great work! look forward to seeing more from you in the future!

As @Vasco Freitas mentioned, I would have like to just keep the mouse down.
Speaking about controls, I'm sure this game would be even better with a gamepad.
A good game you have here !

You work for the mouse industry don't you?! So much clicking. :D (and often enough outside the game window, minimizing it, which is a little frustrating). Also I would have liked to see my final score. I believe it was somewhere above 3000 which I'm rather proud of.
Good idea to stick with a game you're able to finish instead of getting too ambitious. Still there would have been ways to use the theme surely. Decent first game nonetheless, keep participating and the games will only get better and better.
