I get that you yourself are spending time for the upgrades but as right now it seems too slow and punishing to the player and not really that fun, maybe changing the speed of how the circles appear or making them do something else than just appear might make it more interesting, also maybe combining some mechanics from clicker games could make it more rewarding and satisfying to upgrade your ship. Gameplay itself was okay, i feel like the ship collision should be a bit smaller, akin other bullet hells.","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"JOZGames","author_uid":"1027223","time":"2019-04-29T22:31:28Z","epoch":1556577088,"modified":1556577088,"text":"\u200bGostei do gr\u00e1fico, mas essa mec\u00e2nica de ficar apertando os c\u00edrculos  para fazer o upgrade, al\u00e9m de desnecess\u00e1ria, quebra o ritmo do jogo","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Sergi Montaner","author_uid":"1122425","time":"2019-04-30T07:37:15Z","epoch":1556609835,"modified":1556609835,"text":"Hi, the movement was a little sluggish (compared thith the enemy bullets) but the concept of killing enemies making their bombs explode is brilliant. I liked it very much an it is very original.\nAbout the upgrades, It's cool having so many options but I didn't know how much money I had to pay the initial upgrades. I lacked context at this point of the game.\nI also liked the idea that upgrading the game was like a minigame but it was not very clear why was I playing that game or what would happen if I lost.\n\nThe art and the music are cool too.\nCongrats!","likes":0,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Vlad Shish","author_uid":"1035403","time":"2019-04-30T07:54:20Z","epoch":1556610860,"modified":1556610860,"text":"Interesting gameplay, but no innovations.
