I tried to blast some enemies apart, I got very close to them and stopped the ship to make things easier. I think my shots are going through them? Or maybe it just takes a lot of hits to blow up their ship. When I stopped, the enemies also don’t seem to be hitting me, I only got hit once when I was moving. Nice aesthetic, the cockpit looks awesome and the star field effect is helpful for getting oriented. Great work.

The download is listed as Windows + Linux, but as far as I can tell this is a Windows-only game. I was able to play using Wine, but others using Linux might not be able to play.

Thank you for testing our game! :)

On the first enemy, it takes 3 hits to destroy it. when you lock on (using the triangle button on the Playstation controller, or "Y" on Xbox), you will get a "health bar" above the enemy ship.

The collision is calculated "triangle perfect" (cause it also applies force on the ship that you hit, which gets especially fun ones you got 4 MGs). Therefore it's a bit harder to hit an enemy than in games that only use bounding volumes for hit detection.

I tagged the download as "Linux" cause there is no dedicated "Wine" button, but I've tested it with Wine and it worked, thus I didn't want to discourage Linux users from trying it out.

Thank you for your kind words, it's nice to read after 1 month of effort of our team :)
