Very polished and the presentation is so stylish! It's amazing that there's a leaderboard! 

Developer

We are glad you enjoyed and love our game. The leaderboards are definitely a core highlight of the game :D

Unfortunately I wasn't able to run this without my browser freezing up or crashing - it seems this happens a lot with games made in this engine when I'm using a mac. Sorry I couldn't leave a rating, from the screenshots and other reviews it looks super fun!

Ow, we didn't get to test it, but we do have a downloadable Mac version uploaded. It should be listed at the bottom of the game page, under the "Downloads" section. We'd be happy if you could try the game out using that.

My bad, I downloaded it and got to play it after all!

You guys designed something really cool, upgrading the center turret makes it easier to kill enemies but at the same time you're making it harder for yourself. It's a really cool take on the theme and the controls were responsive and fun to use. I thought I was decent at bullet hells but I stand corrected, my highest score is 168 haha. This is extremely polished and the sfx were super juicy. Really good work!

Developer

Thanks so much for your comment and I am glad you get to enjoy our game! Sorry for the inconvenience due to the game having issues running on Mac, but we are glad you are able to download our game and play it :D Thanks for your kind words

A beautifully simple concept transformed into a very compelling experience! There's a lot more to it than I assumed at first, I could see myself playing this for a while trying to go for a high score. My only critique would be the scoring seems to only be based on the time you managed to survive which incentivises the player to avoid killing enemies in the early stages as much as possible. Pretty small nitpick as once the game gets going it's pretty much impossible to keep that strategy up. Great work!

Developer(+1)

We had four more complex ideas and this one was the only simple one among them. We chose this theme after realizing the potential in game design from its simplicity, so we're happy that it shows in the final product.

The scoring system was too daunting from the time limit to get it right, so instead we just kept it simple. The strategy of avoiding kills is interesting, as it's also balanced out late game with wanting to heal, introducing a more aggressive playstyle. We'd love to encourage any kind of playstyle the players would like to try, so we've been thinking about rewarding player for style points to reward more experienced players in the updated version of the game.

Scored 190  how are the people so good at this already

Great game!

Developer

I have no idea, but what I do know is, people figuring out their strategy and playstyle will definitely go far in the game, as shown as the massive change in leaderboards. Thanks for commenting and playing :D

Very compelling, you got the controls down perfectly. The player moves at just the right speed to narrowly avoid stuff. Great work

Developer

Thanks for playing our game! I am glad you find our game compelling, and glad that you love the controls and the gameplay of our game. :D

super fun and well made!! I love how the upgrades simultaneously make it easier to kill enemies while also making the bullets harder to dodge. I also love the vaporwave aesthetic. Overall a fun entry!

Such a clever idea, I love how the game gets harder as you upgrade but also destroys your enemies quicker. Really fit the theme well! Great job. The aesthetic is wonderful too!

I'm a huge fan of vapowave and this was fun twist on the bullet hell genre. Great work!!

Developer

Thanks so much for playing our game! Really appreciate your comment. We are glad you love our game with the vaporwave and bullet hell combo! We hope to polish up our game and update our game very soon, so keep an eye out for that :D

It's a really fun bullet hell game

I think it might be a better idea to not allow repeated same powerup (for the tank) initially to make the gameplay more interesting though

Developer

Definitely will take this feedback into consideration. Totally more room for improvements! Thanks for playing and commenting on our game!

Reminded me (in a good way) of some of the game modes from Geometry Wars 2 in how hectic this gets. Smooth controls and an addictive gameplay loop, very replayable :)

Developer

I am glad it made you remembered a game from back then, definitely will check this game out! I am glad you enjoyed our game and thanks for commenting and replying!

This game is really fun :) I couldn't stop repeating it.
I love that the music makes it feel nice and chill while being bombarded.

The mechanics of the turret shooting you and using those shots is super creative!
I had lots of fun playing this. 

Thanks!

Developer

Hey Im Alfi

And thank you for reviewing the game and especially the music, it means the world to me to bring joy to people with my work even if it's by a tiny margin.

Again thank you for reviewing the game

Many kudos.

Quite a fun game! In a lot of bullet hell games after a certain point you just become overpowered, but I like how this kept you on your toes -- how you needed to stay in the line of fire and that the bounce upgrade also made it more challenging! Fun concept - nicely done!

Developer

Thanks so much for your amazing comment! Definitely agree with you, and your comment makes a lot of sense about our game. If we are to continue this game project in the future, we will definitely consider try making this in a way players can play for a longer time. Thanks again for your comment!

Submitted(+4)

Nice game! I really liked the how the upgrades are both a blessing and a curse, as you have to dodge those shots before they can land on an enemy. Well done!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for playing and commenting! I am glad you enjoyed the gameplay, thanks to our game devs for making it so smooth and nice to play.
