Fun idea and gameplay. Seems like the character randomly can't go forward sometimes, but jumpign helped. Loved the ability to shoot in any angle while running and jumping. Nice job.

Fun game. Shooting felt right and was working much better than in most other platformers I have played the last days.
I was able to "jetpack-jump" over packs of enemy troups, which made it very easy to take the bunker in almost no time. I don't have much experience with platformers, and don't know, if and how other games like yours are solving this?

Florence NightingaleThat was really fun! I managed to speedrun the whole thing and win on first try! Awesome work and great job!

Bandel BattalionNice mechanics, I liked running through the bullets after a firefight, sending them everywhere! I had a bit of an issue where the character occasionally got stuck when running, but that's such a minor thing I'm not even sure why I'm mentioning it. Perhaps because it was about the only thing that disturbed gameplay a bit!
Would've loved to see a few more levels and a bit of increased difficulty.
Well done! :)

Vasa La VistaThe para drop made me laugh - funny graphical depiction. The platformer game was bit too easy - also I seemed to be able to fly through the air. Nice mechanic for aiming with the mouse - I managed to shoot the guy high up in the bunker.
Oh also - there were British Paratroops in D-Day also - they did an amazing capture of Pegasus bridge near Caen.
Liked the big boss at the end - nice touch!

Scéal - The Story Of IrelandIt's a fun game, but even if the music is great, it becomes a bit repetitive. I would have liked to see when a kind of impact when you hit the enemy or when he hits you. Also, in the second part of the level, enemy's bullet where almost invisible as they're grey on grey.
Shooting is nice, graphics are cool

Your MajestyFun little game, I enjoyed the retro graphics and the shooting, and the fact that you could spin around your gun by using the mouse lol. The music got a bit repetitive and I would have enjoyed some kind of confirmation when you or the enemy get hit, like a visual effect or a sound of some sort.
Well done! :)

The Skirmish at BenderI don't know why I loved the superfast horizontal speed so much.
I was able to zoom past so many enemies I got an adrenaline rush.
Nice game!
