The game feels really juicy. I really enjoyed playing it!
The sound effects are a bit loud though, compared to the game music

The game was fun in general but there wasn't really anything new in concept other than the health being the same as ammo, in the end it was still a good time.

183 points :) A little bit hard at first (some strange bugs with controls and really little energy cell to take) but after few tries it's okay. Like the idea of "energy for everything". Nice game!

It is very hard to play. I only got a few points. But i like the graphics and the sound. Nice work.

The graphics are great, everything is great except that annoying sound when the enemy die but I think the difficulty is perfect! I like the the effect when an enemy "hit" me :D
Nice job!

But...
I found one bug (played on html5 version). I just died but as you can see i still have energy.. o.O

very fun game. start to be really fun when you understand it's better to kitte the ennemies than to try to kill them all.

My record was 140, after you realize that battery spawn again every time when you pick you just start only scanning and runing away, maybe some random spawning could make game more difficult.

I like your clean and simple graphics

Game ideas matching the themes. :)

It will be more fun if gun change every time when get battery and different enemy types.

Nice game, there's nothing particularly innovative in terms of gameplay but it is well done. Good job.

Nice graphics and sfx. I felt like the enemies were moving a bit fast, but I was playing on my laptop and i don't think the trackpad is good for aiming

Very nice game, well done, controls were smooth which is always enjoyable! I had the feeling the enemies were a bit fast too, maybe it would be more fun if it was more gradual than that. Apart from this, nice job, I had fun!

Oh, I see the "The Art of Screenshake" consequences. It's a good thing you were able to complete and polish this game, but I feel it lacks some content and gameplay progression.

Here is my playtest:

Consistent art style and sounds are really good.

I had so much fun playing this :-)
The graphics are minimal but consistent and I liked them a lot. The music is cool and the sound effects are okay. The mechanics are well known but hey, that's okay if the game is fun!
One little annoyance: would be great if you'd capture the mouse inside the game window...

Anyways, cool entry, thanks a lot!

I liked the game but I found the sound effects a bit too annoying. Also, the difficulty was quite high from the beginning. Good job!
