Super Space Goat Thief Standoff!!

I like the explosions! It got pretty hectic until I realized I could hold the space bar and the arrow key and go nuts.

The turning could've been smoother, but overall great game! Good work! I screwed up the link on mine, so you couldn't play it. I've since fixed it. Mind taking another look? http://www.ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-25/?action=preview&uid=15134

Ahh, you could hold the space bar? Nice graphics, and like the color palette.

One very minor gripe, though ... it would be great if you could skip the intro. Nicely done!

I liked the graphics, but I did get 9000 by holding down right arrow and space

It was a great idea to have the bullets bounce from destroyed enemies instead of just vanishing.

Interesting idea to have the lasers bounce. I wish it could be used more strategically in the game.
Nice particles effect.
Final score: 13100 :p

I really liked the intro and the graphics ! :D The sounds were kinda loud to me ( i dont know if it was just my computer ) but it was really cool XD

Liked the background story. Needs better explosion sounds and a high score.

Final score: 10200, but I can do better. :)
I love the graphics, particularly explosions. Bouncing bullets are very useful!

Reminded me of asteroids somewhat. I didn't even notice the bouncing bullets until later and I thought that was quite novel!

Bouncy bullets are cool. Intro is really nice.

Smooth! I like the feel of the controls, and the explosions are very satisfying. The sound effects are a bit annoying though. Also, I got away for quite a long time (22100 points) with just spinning and shooting. The closer the enemies get, the more effective the bouncing becomes.

I absolutely love the aesthetic in this game :O

Very simple, but very promising. I can see the rebound mechanic being further developed to create some type of meta trick shot game.

Loved it... The bullet sound did make my ears feel like they were going to die.

Nice and simple arcade style game. The bounce mechanic was cool and helps with the larger crowds but it still feels a little rough. I like the art and the humor.

Great graphics. I liked the extra hits you could get from the ricochets.

Very nice. Love the look & feel. Absolutely needs cool music!

Cute little game, I liked it!
If you work on this more, definitely change the bullet sound.
It was hard to get the bullets to deflect in the way you wanted them to.

The story makes it so much better :)

Haha. I love these graphics. I sort of wish I could move, but the hopelessness does add something to the game, and it's not as bad as it seems with the bullet rebounds.

For games with pixely graphics like this, it helps a lot if the game link has some fixed size container for the SWF where the size is an integer multiple of the number of game pixels. Otherwise there's a distracting (to me) and probably unintended effect of sprites having their pixels change size as they move across the screen.

Wow. That villain you drew is eerily reminiscent of the one in the sort of secret dream project I have off to the side for now. Except mine has a monocle, of course! Thoughts:

Bad:
-The ship's turning is a bit finicky.
-The intro could use some skippabilty.
-I wish there was a restart button.

Good:
+The story makes it good, even if it didn't have goats.
+Bullet rebounds are an ingenious concept! (It would be cool if there was a combo counter for them!)

Hey guys, there is a restart button btw, press space (fire) once you have died

Cool stuff, especially the graphics and feel of the game. I love the idea of not being able to actually fly the ship. The feeling of being cornered is great. It kind of reminds me of Ziggurat for iOS.

Good job.
