Fun game, I really like the use of the theme. After a few tries, my high score was 460.

clever game with an interesting mechanic - really like the reverse invaders idea and it fit the theme well

The game looks really fluid, loved it! The mechanics is really tricky as you need to control your tiny-green-thing like a bullet and at the same time avoid all the bullets of the ship. But it's satisfying.
This is an interesting concept, is like a Space Invaders in reverse. :D

nice idea, but it would be much fun if the monsters were easier to control, and the bullets would be more

@stevenjmiller Thanks for playing! The more green bug soldier you save, the more score you get.

@paulhocker @hav24 Thanks for playing! In truth, the concept was a reverse Galaxian(1979, NAMCO). That's why the game title is Naixalag.

@ternarycat Thanks for playing and the suggestion. I want the monster moving like a bug drifting in space, so that's feeling. And the hero space ship has more energy in well control, not fair.

Maybe I need think more about game design for much fun. However thanks for your feedback.

The idea is nice, but it’s really difficult! I realised it works better if two people use the keyboard, one for the swarm, one for the free roaming alien. Otherwise you kinda have to… sacrifice one or the other :-)

The game always tells me that everyone is dead but I still have a few ships, is it a bug? Or is it because a bullet hit my main ship and somehow I did not notice it?

Geliger's retrograde was fresh. But it's a little difficult to manipulate. But I think that's an important system. But I think there's a problem with the resolution. The screen was so long that I couldn't see everyone, so I had a hard time playing games.

@gamefive Thanks for playing. I realized that more attention challenge arising while I made the screen long, that's why it's long. emmmm... It's my fault that oversize for some device screen. You can resize the window in the windows version, if you need.

@samh thanks for playing. HAHA, you got that point. That is what my thinking, but really not done well.

And if the main ship died, all you died, that's right.
