Nice game, congrats!
It's great to have a cool tutorial to play around and understand it beforehand. However, it's a really hard game (which can be something great, of course).
Super challenging, but I could not stop playing!
It takes a bit too long to understand what the actual game is, but it's very fun!
Had some issues with groking the controls initially, but once got it it was really fun. The way you move the ship (or whatever it is) is super unique. This makes the game much more challenging, but also more interesting. It's hard to dodge incoming bullets though.
Very funny, flying weapons - I like the idea :-)
I loved this one! Whole gameplay based on weapon recoil feels really cool, game itself pretty hard tough
Liked the music too
Ha! Clever and fun. I didn’t play long enough to get the hang of it. It’s really difficult to balance shooting at the moon and shooting away to keep moving towards it. I feel like it might be more intuitive to have a regular engine/thruster mechanic that you have to balance with gun recoil.
Truly taking the concept of a "gunship" to the next level! I think one concession that might make it a bit easier is to give the pistols infinite ammo so you don't lose all lateral movement when reloading (or perhaps we don't need the reloading mechanic at all). I appreciate the very clear graphics which is crucial for this type of game, and along with the good hitboxes it felt fair despite the difficulty. The sound and music are great, guns felt punchy and the atmosphere was appropriately tense. Great job!
Hard to play, but really fun. I managed to get the Moon to 0%, but that didn't kill it!
Thanks! There is a hidden phase after 0%.
Oof... Seems I should schedule a rematch.
Super cool idea having no thrusters but all guns! Really hard to play, but thats not necessarily a bad thing!
Wow, never seen THAT before :)
Very cool idea and well executed
Fun to play, just challenging.
Great job!
This was great fun
I'm terribad at space shooters but I had a great time, very fun movement!
Amazing! Tons of fun.
Gave me a chuckle when I realized how the ship was going to be moved. Love the innovation here!
This might be the most literal interpretation of the theme I've seen so far... literally shooting the moon. I had a tough time getting good at the controls but It's actually really neat and unique to have literally EVERYTHING be driven by shooting a gun... even movement. Nice job!
