This game felt like a classic! The ship controls were tight, and had just the right amount of drift. One minor detail is that the powerups looked a little bit like the larger square enemies, so in the frantic mess of things I had to think twice about grabbing one. I was a little sad that I couldn't rewind time after I died, but that's really a me problem. ;P Nice job on this one!

I really like the black and white theme with the simplistic artstyle. It just fits together. The movement feels great and it becomes pretty hard at some point.
Great job!

HyperplaneWhat a cool game, I really liked the graphic style, black and white, I felt myself playing those old games that everyone loves. The sound effects and music went really well, congratulations on your work!

In de RetroI wanna give some feedback:
Maybe this is stupid to say, but even though everything is black and white and it would break the colorscheme, it would be great to make the cursor a different color because I lost it a lot of times because so much was on the screen.
I personally didnt like the insta-death too, but thats totally up to how you want your game to be.
Aside from that i loved how good the controls were and it was really fun to destroy the enemys!!
Liked your game a lot and rated it! :)

IT HIDES IN THE DARKThe rewind mechanic in this game is underwhelming due to it lasting for only about 2 seconds and taking a long time to obtain, and you may even be killed for using it if you happen to rewind where the enemies previously were spawned. However, I did appreciate how chaotic the game became at the later waves. Personally, I would add items that spawn randomly around the arena that give the player boosts or extra powers, it would definitely make this game even more enjoyable to play.
