Ngl I struggled alot using only keyboard controls. But once I picked up a controller it was great fun. Also you got a good chuckle out of me with the stock scream.

Fun game, could play for hours if it had more levels or objectives.
At first I thought the controls were a bit weird but when it clicked it was really smooth. Played with a controller, didn't try keyboard.
Smarter AI for the humans would be nice, I noticed their paths get less straightforward as the waves progress but maybe they can do dodging maneuvers when you get close or something.

Engine progress demoMade it to wave 26. I might be full of shit seeing how far I got this time, but keyboard controls feel worse than mouse controls form last time. There is still some weird movement in certain angles, but as long as you don't do anything too crazy and only press keys for very short time it works pretty precisely (though I would prefer doing smooth flowing motions rather than constantly correcting my course).

Damn I think that's the all time high score! Thanks for playing.

I'm ok with this. I'd prefer players don't use keyboard controls, it's not the way the game is meant to be played.

Obviously for good control pressing a button should lose out to an analog control like a thumbstick or a mouse. Hopefully what you're describing is just that and not some sort of buggy behavior with the keyboard? Holding directions shouldn't do anything bad besides turning you more than you anticipated.
