Very nice and unique concept.
Thank you for your comment!
I like the idea of "getting hurt makes you stronger", had fun playing! Nice work
Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it!
very original, well done!
Thanks for your feedback!
I loved the mechanic, so original and unique, and the hand drawn art and animations were impressive and must have taken a lot of work. Really impressed!
Thanks a lot! Yeah it took some work specially for the fact that I dont have a scanner so I had to digitalize the drawings using my phone. But it was worth I also really like the aesthetic!
Really liking the artstyle, maybe the texts could've been in something alike 'drawn' fontstyles?
I really wish I had had the time to draw the entire alphabet in this style but sadly I had to cut my development time one day short :/
Very nice pencil drawn art and very creative usage of the theme!
Thanks a lot! I was really doubtful about the art style but everyone seems to dig it which is great!
Pencil drawn animations always intrigues me! Well done on the game! It has perfect amount of gameplay needed to fell fun to play!
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed it, I worked really hard to deliver something that exceeds even my own expectations for a first game.
This is a very good game, I like all the mechanics and the art style.
My highscore is 140 seconds :)
pretty good game.
loved it.Liked the graphics.and the shooting mechanic.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to rate my game!
This is actually pretty addicting! Good work on achieving that! Nice looking visuals and audio too! My suggestion is not having the quit button in the main menu, I thought it was quit the upgrade menu and accidentally closed the game haha
Thanks for the taking the time to rate and review ky game. Yeah the quit button has been mentioned haha. Good luck with your YT channel!
Great game, great graphics. Ability to shoot to all other directions except where enemies were most likely coming was nice game mechanic. Good Job!
Thanks for your feedback!
I really liked the art style and if it was consistent throughout the game (UI, text) it would be been amazing. It handled well and didn't feel too hard but maybe a little easy after a couple of tries.
Thank you for your feedback! I really wished i had had the time to create all the characters in the alphabet (I thought of that idea a lot) to keep it consistent haha. Glad you enjoyed the game!
Very cute art style. The audio and game play are good too!
You keep the balance of "hurt" and "strength", which is the flash point of the game design!
One thing that I complain is that the "Quit" button in the equip board. I sometimes press that button by accident. You can move it to the corner or make another pause menu.
Overall, it's a great game! I really enjoyed it!
Thanks for the comment! Yeah i didn't notice that the quit button was misplaced and kinda lost there. People could accidentally press it. I also really liked your art style, you've great talent! Thank you for playing!
Really cool idea and the graphics are super cute too! I found it really hard though as I thought there were a little too many enemies, but maybe that was just me :P Anyways well done! :D I really enjoyed playing your game :)
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah there are a little too many enemies but onve you get to fully upgrade one of the weapons you can pretty much spam fire which makes things a little easier.
I dont think anyone that rated was able to complete the game yet hehe. Thanks a lot for playing!
You're very welcome! :) Yeah , I didn't get that far sadly :P
You're welcome! I really enjoyed it :)
I liked your game it was very fun! the drawings is super cute! :)
Thank you! I always thought that my drawings were a bit...shitty to be honest. Never imagined so many people would like the style! To be honest even I looked at the finished product and felt proud of my work which is the best feeling ever!
Thanks a lot for your comment!
This is a pretty good game! it's pretty hard to defeat aliens, don't get me wrong, but this is a really good concept. and I personally love the fact that using a ballpoint pen was a creative act after selling your tablet. Noice job!
Thanks! Well the ballpoint idea was pretty much an "inprovise, adapt, overcome" type of a deal. Really glad people enjoyed the style, including you! Thanks for the feedback and for taking the time to download and play my game!
That's a really amazing game with amazing art , Really Great Job :D
Thanks a lot! I also really enjoyed your graphical style with the ink blots
Liked the music and style, good looking, nice, fun to watch and hear. The mechanic of recieving abilities in exchange for loosing a "life" is creative and rare. The tutorial (how to play) is a thing which I complain in most of games - wall of text. I (and I think most players who have first contact with a game like this) cannot focus enough to even read the tutorial, not to mention remembering all the information at once. Good for You, you divided the tutorial into divided, highlighted sections, which made whole "how to" a bit cleaner. In-game UI is also very intuitive, despite not using the same graphic style as rest of the game.
thank you so much for the feedback. I had planned an entire interactive how to section but for some reason i coildnt make the text scale well with the many monitor sizes basically everything misaligned so I scraped the idea. I also though about hand drawing all the letters in the alphabet to keep ir consistent but didnt have time for that. Glad you enjoyed the game and the graphical style!
I enjoyed the hand drawn graphics, they are really cool. I think it is weird for there to be a quit option when you open your upgrade. I thought that was just the close shop button but it closed on me. Otherwise its good little game, has nice upgrades and have a good time fightin' baddies!
you're right i didnt realize that it could create that confusion. I should've written "quit game" or "back to main menu". But still thanks a lot for taking the time to play it!
