World destruction !!!

Submitted(+1)

I can finally play an alien to destroy humanity! 

The fact that there's not only the laser but also bomb and above all, the autodestruction is a fun thing. The commands are simple enough and it requires to be precise and have a good timing to make a good score. 

There was some fps drop and targets were moving outside the screen but otherwise it was a good little shoot'em up. :)

Great idea. Music will be stuck in my head for a while, sound effects are cool too. This fits the theme perfectly, great use of the limited colours you have. Sometimes the bottom pedestrians were off screen. I think there should be a slight delay before the game starts to allow the player to read the controls, or have them on the main menu. Personally, I think the bomb would have been better if it was dropped from the bottom of the ship which would allow the player to attack in two directions. Finally, I think the UFO should automatically blow up when the player runs out of laser, and bomb ammo, unless there's an end game I missed. Great game!

That's really cool! It's a great idea for the theme, and the game looks really great!

Really love the alien and UFO sprite.

I got a score of just over 700 then started experiencing some lag sadly, but enjoyed what I played.

The bombs especially are a lot of fun when used in a crowded space and I also liked the Explode ability.

Fun game :)

Very cute and simple game, is fun but i think the implementation of the theme just being you have ammo is a bit too easy, but over all a fun experience

This is a decently fun game with great art! I agree with Adam the alien feels too fast but it is nice that you implemented screen wrapping for when I speed off the screen.

There may be some memory leak issues. The game may not destroy objects outside of the scene.

Yeep, we are aware of it, we run out of time for some more optimization. Thanks for the comment!

I have a soft spot in my heart for the super duper simple sprites that do a lot of heavy lifting. The alien is very cool.

I love the weapons! blowing up gas stations with the bomb is ultra satisfying. There should be a mechanic that encourages you to space those out, because I ran out early on and then felt like the best weapon was out of the game now.

Finally, I'd slow the alien down juuuuust a little. I don't mind a little 'sliding on ice' but I think he could have a little more traction, or a little less velocity.

Great job all of you!

Really retro UI design!!! Looks like a Arcade Game!!! This game fit the theme very well! But in my opinion, the music should be more passionate! I like it!!!
