Very sensitive in webgl. Nice game

I like the auto fire and I think the art and sound effects are well done, but splitting my attention between looking at the ship and the virtual joystick was very hard. I think there's a really fun game in there if you just reassess the control scheme.

Thank you, I agree I have a new control scheme worked out and I improved on the state mechanics for the enemies for a future patch

Web browser controls are too sensitive, had to get used to it. Pixelart is great! 

Developer

Mouse control is to sensitive

the game itself is great, but the control for web browser I think need more consideration :) at first I don't know how to control the ship, but suddenly drag on circle button made me can control it :)

anyway it's a nice game. Last retro space game like this I play was when I was in elementary school I think

Not sure how I feel about the controls. I think even on Android I'd like it if space ship was moving to where I tapped my finger. But I haven't played space shooters on mobile so it's just a guess for now. And it might be just me.

Also setting my name while in mid-game doesn't seem seem mobile friendly :)

Thank you for your feedback. I went for the joystick to help with the difficulty. I tried the touch controls and have plans on implementing a settings menu to customize layout and control scheme.

Nice game. The art is really nice.

The control scheme works nicely for android but with the mouse is hard to control. I'd suggest keeping a version with WASD or mouse for WebGL/PC build in the future. 

Good job though!

Thank you so much, I had fun doing the art for this project!
Keeping WASD is a great and helpful suggestion, thank you.
