I really like the artwork and the retro style, and very fun to play.

EXTREMELY COOL!!!! I LOVED the enemy designs and the transformation was so satisfying, like watching a Transformer transform!!!

Developer

Thanks dbybr

Loved the sprite art on this one, though I do feel like it was a little short and that the bike form didn't seem to have any advantages over the fly form. 

Good work, lookin forward to the part two y'all teased.

Developer

I keep thinking about why someone would choose one over the other and need to tune this a little more to give an incentive for each mode. I appreciate the feedback Neo. Stage 2 is coming!

Thank you!!!!!

I managed to get disconnected from the source of my bullets somehow between transforming. Aside from that, good game.

I'll keep an eye on what makes this happen and try to fix it asap. Thanks for the feedback D!

Really fantastic design and a beautiful visual style! Obviously it'd be nice if there was more variation in enemy design and more enemies as a whole, but what's here is really great!

the nintendo era feel hooked me. I was riding for like a minute and a half before I realized no new enemies were spawning haha. 

Developer

Hey Mari, sorry it's not complete right now but I'm working on adding more enemies, objects to interact with. Thanks for playing!

Yeah it's short, but this real brought me back to my childhood playing games on the megadrive/genesis. Really nailed the style. Both graphically and sound too. I hope you keep extending it with more content.

Developer

Thank you! This is really encouraging — I will definitely be adding more to this game.

Really pleasant, would play more of this if extended ^^ What about evil mecha antagonists ? ^^ Giant mecha bosses ? ^^

Developer

Sorry I know there aren't much in terms of enemies right now but I'll add some for sure. Thanks for playing!

Cool mini shmup !

I like the character's design with his cool bike, and i like how the transformation sfx sorta feels like a nod the the transformers sound XD

There are 2 things i found a bit weird so i don't know if they're intentional or bugs, 

at first i kinda skip past the boss (the large metal leg with the shoe) and the game kept going without any enemies spawning or second chance to see the boss so i reseted the game, 

and then i don't know if you have only one level cause after the level clear i think i was just repeating the first level over and over.

Also i think i found an actual bug, after getting level clear on the first level, i'm not sure how i triggered this but the transformation no longer worked, the sprite showed the character on the bike, but the gameplay let you move as if you were in flight mode.


Other than what i mentioned i like it and had some fun, you definitively nailed the surreal secondary theme with those shoe tank and large robotic leg with a shoe for a boss :p

Developer

That transformation sound was meant to be a placeholder haha but I'm glad you dig it. There's only one stage at the moment but I do plan to add more so it doesn't just repeat. I appreciate your feedback so much. Those are some bugs I need to address asap. Thanks for playing!

This one is pretty good! Graphics are great and the gameplay simplistic yet enjoyable. Sadly at the second level enemies stopped spawning and it was over...

Developer

Haha yes I will try to add a second stage soon and fix some of the bugs so there will be more to play. Thanks for testing!
