Nice art but need separate foreground and background. Game hard at start. Good entry. 

Developer

What exactly do you mean by separate foreground and background? What are you looking for in the foreground?

Submitted

With contrast or so .. enemy lost on background tiles

Upgrades makes this game way better :D Beginnings are difficult though, it's hard to shoot the ships and bullets are flying pretty slowly, but for the first game it is very good and feels complete! ;)

Thank you. It definitely seems like my biggest things to work on have been with the early game and progression based on the comments I've received.  I plan to work on it a bit more to balance that better and release an update.

great for the start on first game and success game jam. Hope you will continue the journey as game developer.

I like the game shooter game, but you can improve the game better, and I believe you can do it (wave enemies, variant bullet, etc)

Developer(+1)

Thanks, I definitely can make it better. A lot of things I just ended up not having the time to include. I'm going to work on it more.

Definitely love these kinds of background tiles! :D

But the enemies are destroyed much slower than they appear. Collected a whole bunch of flying machines on the scene :)

Great start, I wish further development!

Developer

The ship starts out not able to kill them very fast. I recommend upgrading fire rate or unlocking the laser chaingun.

Lacks some dynamics, but a good entry, well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks! What dynamics are you looking for? I would love ideas for expanding and improving it.

I think I just wanted the game to faster, the movement. But maybe it’s just me 😅

It starts slow, try buying some upgrades. Speed, fire rate, powerups. If you make it to a decent score, it becomes a frenzy.
