Good stuff! Very interesting riff on a classic concept of a space shooter. The tutorial to break the start at the beginning is also a huge help. Well done, can't wait to see where you take this!

This game is very fun and kinda interesting. I really liked and appreciated the tutorials, both the one on the splash screen and the first enemy you encounter. In terms of criticism, there was a bug where I couldn't shoot while moving sometimes (specifically diagonally maybe? ). The square enemies being the same speed as you means you can get stuck being chased with no way to respond. And finally, I liked the look of the connected yellow things but the hunter and its connection to the gatherer doesn't look great. Great job on the game y'all!
