It looks very nice and smooth.

Very cool art style, especially the vfxs!

Package delivered!

The difficulty is perfectly set for an interesting and quick playtrough, not too hard not too easy. I like the projectile trail fx. However, the shooting sound is a bit too loud IMO (and maybe it misses some variations?).

Nice game!

Nice details on the environment and the enemies! Was a little hard to see the crosshair and the instructions said 'S' instead of 'A.' Nicely done!

Nice style and fitting music! Beautiful backgrounds (and foregrounds)

the visuals have to be the best part for me, the ships look so good and the background is also beautiful, it all works really well together! Great work!

I love those ship designs! And music is really charming.

My only problem was shooting sound it was too loud and looped strangely.

Had a little trouble seeing where my crosshair was, but overall fun

Developer

Yeah, small white crosshair was initially for gamepad support, but didn't manage it implement it in time. So basically you can just look where your mouse cursor is :)

Really liked the game! Though, it was a little difficult to see the screen (might be on my end)

Developer

Thank you! Do you mean that game window was too small?

The screen inside itch io is fine, but theres a huge perimeter of just black when I load the game. Did you set it to manual resolution settings? You might wanna try the automatic html scaling, if you're already not using it.

Your game is cool, brother, I just had a little trouble knowing where I was aiming, but the graphics and audio were awesome
