The controls need some work. It felt a little bit weird that I can rotate with such a high velocity but my forward movement in relation is much slower. But solid entry, well done! :)

Great graphics and sound, the movement needs some work though. But nice game.
The art style's adorable, I felt really bad letting those red blood cells get hurt! ^_^ I had trouble enjoying the game for long because of the controls, though. Sometimes it felt too sensitive and other times it felt like I had to wait for the ship to build up momentum before I could go in the direction I wanted. I love the concept, visuals and sound but I feel like WASD for movement and mouse for aiming would've been more intuitive. Or, if you wanted to keep the rotation mechanic, use the arrow keys for rotating and W for moving forward.
Love the art on this one though the ship does look a little out of place. Would be great as a twin-stick shooter which would allow for faster action.
Thanks for the comment LordBundee!
That's a great suggestion and it makes me a bit sad we couldn't think of this on the weekend.
I don't think we will return to fix this but that's definitely a good reminder to test our games more and to experiment with different mechanics before calling it a day.
Thanks for your opinion we are glad you enjoyed it ! : )
