I loved the game. It uses many of the core elements that make a game fun to play. An absolutely great example. Great mechanics as well. The only thing I noticed is that if I stayed on the bottom (with the exception of a few times), I could just coast though most of the game. This applied especially to the Boss battles. I just had to stay at the bottom near the squid and I never got touched. Boss battle was epic retro and just as fun. I think the only thing better would have been maybe one or two more patterns to the attack. Great job and had lots of fun :)

Nice job! Loved the enemies and the bosses and recycling the ship parts. Really no complaints other than it would have been nice to have some sound/music. Great game!
Nice! It's a bit easy to play but totally transmits an oldschool arcade vibe. I love the "life-recycle" mechanic :D
I like this game! It's simple, but its pretty clean and polished, especially for a game jam game. Also, the variety of enemies makes it a lot more fun. Nice job!
Great work! It's small but well done. A little slow for my taste but nonetheless I can tell you put some effort into it! I loved the concept of when you destroy the ships you get to collect them and become them when you die. Very cool little mechanic! A couple of thoughts;
- I would ramp up the speed a bit. I think it moves a little slow and leaves me more or less waiting for the next thing to come.
- Give the squid boss some more variety in attacks. I found that the little tiny "bullet" looking ships that shoot at you gave up a bit more of a challenge than the boss did.
- Squish it together! everything just seems so spaced out between one another on top of the slow pace it moves.
- Needs some sound/music...
Overall the movement was solid and reactive. It has a nice atari aesthetic! I liked that there was some variety in enemies. Would have loved to be able to kill the shooting spike ball and become it eventually.
