Woo, 880 points! I loved the humorously long intro story! Fantastic graphics and overall art style. I was amused by the little blue dude that kept popping up, but I wish he said more things. The music was nice and soothing, but I'd love to see a little more variety. Blowing up PLANETS is hilarious. Thanks for submitting this!

This was fun, though I wish the penalty for shooting wasn't so high. You have a fun mechanic and you should be careful about punishing players for using it.

My highest score run (470) was me just not shooting anything.

That aside, this game was fun enough to make me play it multiple times. The music was great and the graphics were really clean.

Not trying to come off negative because I really liked this, I just don't want to give fluff feedback without some real opinions!

I like how much character this game has! Some of the collisions feel a bit iffy though: I kept dying and thinking "Wait... What did I hit?" Still, great graphics and audio!

I like the the polished fonts, the art style. Maybe make the intro skippable. Well done!

This game was a lot of fun and had a very cool story intro to it as well! I liked how the controls were conveniently displayed at the beginning of the game so I didn't have to figure them out as I went along (Although, I didn't realize I could actually shoot for some reason until after playing and skimming the comments as I scrolled to the bottom to write my own). The graphics and music are great, as well as the audio for the intro as well. Overall this is a great game well done.

"Drop it like it's hot"... Hilarious! The gameplay is a little clunky, but the visuals are fantastic. Good work!

Epic realisation ! i like the fact that you have to made one input to change range, give a good way to work on level design and make a good difficulty curve.

But on the graph, you shall put an "aura" like red and green, because in a first place i don't know that the green items were energy ^^

Reduce the obstacle's collisions box, sometimes i don't really hit them. (Don't touch the scoop, because taking energy will be too hard then)

But gg for this polish and atmosphere !

This has so much character, I love it! Between the theme song and the epic opening story, I was having tons of fun before I even got to the gameplay, which was also lots of fun. :D

That intro was amazing. I liked the art and the music! The gameplay was great although it got quite repetitive very quickly. Good job guys! :)

Fantastic intro and great presentation. It was a little difficult to see what the rapper was saying whilst trying to play the game and collect energy - shame that you couldn't rap that, as it would have been hilarious.

Introduction is undeniably masterpiece music is enjoyable and cartoony graphics looks cool but gameplay is repetitive after a while

Graphics and audio are fantastic, really consistent and fit together well. Gameplay is a little dull though, perhaps if you moved and shot faster and if there were a few more variations with the obstacles it would add a bit more skill and excitement. Also moving up and down you'd hit things behind you sometimes, perhaps the collision box is a bit too large.

That being said, don't let that detract from the amazingly polished game you managed to make, great job!

Really a great looking game, with nice graphics, and nice music too!!!

Okay, the game runs a bit sluggish on my computer full screen, but it's okay. We can understand you were busy with the rest and you can always improve that part later. ^_^

Really great job! (and I wish I could make these kinds of graphics or sounds.)
