Pretty cool! I really enjoy the music and the gameplay is nice. I would love to see this revisited for more polish after the jam. Great work!

I liked the game, maybe you could add some effects (like laser beam) for LMB (destroying UFOs) and adjust warp distance.

I can't play the game on web. I have a fix though.

1, In Unity. Go into file => Build Settings and then click Player Settings.

2, Then press the Html 5 Icon and go into Publishing Settings, change the compression format to disabled and re publish the web build and the game should work.

I hope this helps.

I already did it before, it doesn't do anything to help this issue :(

Not bad. It looks like some of the bullets (like the small red line) are very small and it is hard to get lost in the parallaxing background.

You just have to disable compression during WebGL build, and it will work.

Can't play the WebGL version.

There's now a link for windows in the download notes, so if you are using windows / mac you can play

I would really like to try out the game, but am unable to play due to an issue with the WebGL version. I found these error messages in the Chrome console:

Uncaught SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected token
Rocket Riders(WebGL).loader.js:1 Uncaught ReferenceError: unityFramework is not defined
    at HTMLScriptElement.n.onload (https://v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net/html/3852730/Rocket%20Riders(WebGL)-1/Build/Rocket%20Riders(v6p9d9t4.ssl.hwcdn.net/html/3852730/Rocket%20Riders(WebGL)-1/WebGL).loader.js:1:3146)

I did a bit of debugging for you, and it looks like the solution may be to disable compression. The link should has a good explanation of how to turn off compression in Unity.

Let me know when you get this sorted out, and I’ll definitely give this another shot and an rating! Best of luck, and don’t give up yet!

Can't play/rate your game due to the unplayable Web GL issue, hope you learn of a way to fix it or have windows downloadable version.  keep me updated if these changes are made

Currently unplayable through WebGL. Make sure that on the itch game page, the WebGL is set as playable in browser and that your submission is marked as HTML. I really wanna try it out.

Ok I think it's fixed now

Great!

On second view it seems to be stuck at 85%. I'll keep it open and hope it loads

Developer

There's now a link for windows in the download notes, so if it continues to be stuck you can just download and run the project on windows(How ever you do that IDK)
