Game is simple and repetitive. Consider putting out a browser version will make it easy for people to try it out.
Love the graphics. Does it matches the theme ,.... I wonder...
I got negative space on my disk - I guess I won?
a neat little game, I think it would benefit from some extra features such as combos for killing multiple enemies at once, weapon upgrades, different enemy types etc. to keep it less repetitive. Overall a fun game though!
@anaglyphcoding Thanks for the feedback!
Well done.
There lots of enemies that aren't very 'intelligent' so the slowness of the shooting felt strange, when normally you have fast attack speeds on hordes of enemies and slower more tactical attack times in games that require more considered combat.
Was a bit surprised when it showed my name, and even more so if I could choose to play on my C: or D: drive. And hell, even the storage filled was about the same as on my own PC. I hope this is all coincidence and you didn't actually fetch those values and implemented a menu for people with multiple drives :)
Overall one of the best games I've played so far. Heaps of fun and once again, looks awesome!
Btw with headphones on sipping coffee, that sound the first purchasable weapon makes hitting the walls is one of the most horrific sounds I've ever heard :D
Try our game too, maybe you'll like it)
This was an extraordinarily polished game Chock full of audio/visual cues! Brilliant job on this! I really enjoyed it :)
