Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • The game lacks a lot of feedback, shooting just gives a camera shake, so hard to tell if you actually hit anything, there were power ups (probably?) with S and M letters, can't tell what those were doing. The planets in the background were very distracting, looking like something you would need to shoot at, same for the small blue things that I assume were enemy projectiles, they looks like something you would need to shoot. I had no idea how to regain ammo, so once I ran out I just stood there waiting to die.
  • Very good choice of music on this one, it definitely made the game feel more exciting and fast-paced. Outside of that though, the actual ship felt very slow to control, and having no particle effects for killing enemies or visible bullets when you shot made everything feel pretty limp. If the game feel was a little nicer it would really elevate this to a great game.

Funky music!

Fair space shooter. Things to add. SFX, laser animations, explosions. The basics are good and now you have time to add extra things to make a really good space shooter.

Thanks for the feedback!

Simple and fun, but very repetitive. Overall good game though.

fun, but felt a bit too classic (like there is not a lot originality )

Developer

Thanks! I didn't have the time to add features like I wanted to (like updating sprites, adding a boss battle, etc), but I think I'm happy with the core game loop. I set out to make an endless space runner with an online leaderboard and I did 😁
