Quite good! I like the music and the game has an appropriate difficulty - neither too easy nor too hard. However, there are two problems. Problem 1: the tutorial isn't well done, it took me a long time to understand how to play. For this reason, I died yet during the tutorial in the first run. Problem 2: when you die, the screen freezes and you have to reload the site to play again. That doesn't make a good impression. Next time, don't let the screen freeze when the player dies. Instead, add a "You are dead!" mini-cut-scene and let the player restart it directly from the game. By the way, on the second run, my score was about 1700 (I don't remember it exactly). Except for these two issues, Space Candoot is well done!

Love the music and smoothness, died in level 5, score 568. Abilities didn't work or do they unlock at another stage? Pretty nice :)

Nice! Thanks for playing! If you can keep your kill streak (kill-o-meter) full you will have a chance to get powerups on every kill.

One of the best twist I've seen on the shoot em up play style, super cool. I would have loved it to be a bit less "strict" if I may say so and more fun with like slightly bigger bullets or things like this, for more juice ! But still very cool and creative

Really fun game. I thought the visuals were great with the explosion effect and just how readable the health number was above the enemy ships.

Wow! The presentation here is top-notch - it looks and sounds great. I love the touches like the parallax and the status bar going transparent. REALLY polished. If I have to be nitpicky, Im not great at mouse shooters, and I had trouble hitting stuff. I would have maybe tipped the balance to more but weaker enemies. EVen so, this is just really great. Excellent work.

Controls and game feel are really cool ! Congrats !

The parallax is super cool and smooth, but it's a bit disorienting when the enemies doesn't follow it (though I got used to it pretty quickly). I also like the visuals and music, and how the player is gradually introduced to the different enemies. Well done : )

Addictive! The controls are super intuitive, love the visuals too :)

Super cool game. I felt like an idiot because I didn't realize you could hold the mouse button to shoot continuously; it became much more fun once I worked that out. I got to level 9, score 1113. Amazing music and great use of the limited resolution. Excellent work!

What an amazing project to be a part of and I couldn't be prouder with the result.


Working with Jason/Jeezle/Json has been a wonderfull experience, and I'm sure there will be many more games to come from this partnership!!!
