Bug: On mobile the ship will disappear. :(

Neat little idea and an interesting spin on the classic space shooter. I wasn't a fan of when the ship starts moving up and down and spinning on its own, as that makes it impossible to really achieve anything meaningful and I had to wait for it to run out.

I enjoyed it, good job ^^

This was super fun to play! It was frustrating at times but I think that was the point. Great work!

I scored 9000 on the dot, so I can't even make a DBZ joke....

I don't normally play bullet hell games, so I don't have a point of comparison, but I did cheese my way mostly to the end despite spending the entire first half facing backwards because I was rubbish at the steering! I though the way the different out-of-control effects affected the gameplay was well done, and it was nice to have the description of what was happening or I would have been even more confused that I already was xD

I love bullet hells, so I really enjoyed playing this game. The gimmicks never felt unfair, but they always require you to change up your gameplay somewhat, which I really liked.

I really like the concept of having an out of control bullet hell! Overall, I enjoyed playing!

Best game I have seen so far, not art wise, game play, and mechanics wise, You deserve more ratings, it is very fun, and good implementation of out of control, clearly built off of out of control.
