Nice game! Again, just the performance that needs a boost lol. Here's my playthrough of it: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/571614665

Now that i think about it, you were also streaming so that may have impacted your performances quite a bit.

But yeah, overall didn't really have time to optimize..

Thanks for playing!

Unfortunately I don't have a Windows so I cannot try the game. I suggest you put builds from different OS, and if not possible try to put up a gameplay video. 

From what I can see from the GIF the art and the camera movements looks smooth and it seems a nice mayhem funny game :) 

Developer

As suggested, i added a Mac OSX & Linux build!

Couldn't test them since i run Windows, hope they work correctly!

Thank you!

Space invader meets bowling meets rockets ! 

I could see this developed into a real game :)

Small nitpick : i would really have liked to see more of the rocket swarm while i'm steering it.

Also, the choices in the shop don't offer any cost-balancing dilemma for the player : they all have a 1 kill -> 1 rocket ratio, so you just use whichever is closest to your kill count. I feel there's an opportunity missed here.

Good job !

Developer

Thank you for your feedback!

Pretty fun and original game! One bug i encountered was when i lose sometimes not all enemies get destroyed and would inflict damage to my base at the start of the next game so i would begin with less health. Also i am not quite sure how the shop works but anyways, Game is fun, good job!

Developer (1 edit)

The shop is simple, it opens everytime you release rockets and allows you to spend kills for more rockets the next time you spawn, 1 kill = 1 rocket!

Thank you very much for the feedback!

Super fun experience, we enjoyed it a lot with my brother! Getting more and more rockets was exciting each time! We were a bit confused about how the Spacebar shop works. When you opened it the rockets went nuts, I expected them to go wherever I was pointing them at. But then when I bought rockets the shop wouldn't close until the next spawn which was odd. Also, some boost for the rockets would be fun! Great experience overall, good job!

Developer

Yeah i didn't know how to fit the UI in game other than activating it when you release rockets, since if it was always active you'd move the rockets around trying to click the buttons haha!

The fact that when you crash all the rockets without releasing them makes you respawn instantly it's actually a bug lol, the shop it's supposed to open every wave of rockets!

Thanks for the feedback!

I played around with releasing the rockets a bit more and got quite the hang of it - the game is way more enjoyable now! :D 

Developer

Wow i'm actually super happy you played it again! I'm glad you enjoy it :3

Yeah! 5 stars for game design, I really loved the crazy idea!!! At the beginning I couldn't get to launch many missiles, but once figured out it was really over-the-top! Well done! :)

mOOORE ROCKETS!! How can this be so fun. I just wanted to see how many rockets i can spawn. The way the camera follows the rockets is crazy. The first thing i would change is giving the green guys collision. Its a bit disappointing if you want to fly the rockets directly in to them but you end up flying through and hitting nothing. Also you could add more complicated spaces to navigate this could be a lot of fun.

Developer

I completely agree the flying mechanic is not used much since most of the time you just fly straight to the enemies.

The guys were not given colliders for performance but now i wonder if it would change much if i add it. 

Could be interesting, thank you for the feedback!
