Aww. thanks. I can't believe that I missed your comment.

Very well made game! I included it in my compilation video series of all of the GBJam 5 games, if you'd like to take a look :)

Nice game! Balancing my attention between the different attack types was a bit unintuitive at first but I could see the strategy behind each. The missle mechanic in particular is very cool.

Cool game! good job =D

@ RnK

Cool! Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad that you liked the 'boss'; next time I hope I can put a proper one in.

Good looking game, I really miss some sound, but the graphics are good enought to hook you up, controls feels a bit too sensitive and you maybe want to make the laser hitbox a bitt wider and the special weapon a bit less powerful, maybe increasing the cooldown time, boss fight was very cool. Nice work!

@Jerom

Awesome!


@mr

Thanks. Missiles do need some balancing,they're quite fun to use so I think that I'll tune them to being more of a regular attack than the smart bomb that they are now.

Fast & with few patterns fairly challenging, which is more than enough to me to make this game enjoyable! (my xbox gamepad is working)

A fairly decent scrolling shooter. The Missle attack was clearly overpowered though.

Developer

Okay, I've updated the game to support gamepads. I think. I don't actually own a gamepad so I have no way of testing, so any feedback would be highly welcome. Please check https://kieron-overton.itch.io/gb5 for the latest version.

Sure thing, I'll get to work. I'm glad that you enjoyed the game.

Can you add controller support please? And the directional keys be for the analog and d-pad? Thanks. BTW really fun game!
