Heyall, thanks for looking at my game. In between my many distractions I tried to make a simple arcade game. Hope you all enjoy it!
Awesome take on the classic arcade game. I like the SFX, I love how your own projectiles are also something to consider. Would have liked an extra enemy or two, with their own special SFX. Cool game!
Didn't expect much from this game but it was really nice, it was a great design choice that you need to catch the bullets or else if hurt the defenses.
Brilliant game. I destroyed my own city with the superweapon, so in a way this is a pretty accurate simulation of what would happen should I get my hands on such a weapon. Beautiful graphics, and behold, it actually has sound, and it's even pleasant. One of my faves so far.
Great twist of a concept of having to catch your bullets before they can do any harm. I like that. As expected I destroyed the city I was supposed to protect - lesson learned: never let me control an invincible superweapon...
This is great, I love the firing mechanic. I do feel that the player moves a tad too fast though, I found it hard to make accurate movements and mostly resorted to swiping from side to side, ha.
I like the art style. The sound effects are bordering on annoying, but much better than silence. I think I did more damage to the defences myself than any meteors did - at least in the early stages it seems more effective to just act as a mobile shield. Fun though!
This game is pretty fun! :) I like the simple retro-style aesthetic, I enjoy the nice sound effects (though it can be alittle repetitive after awhile), and I especially enjoy the element of choice when you have to judge if releasing your own projectile will help clear the red projectiles or if it will only harm your barrier. Great work!
Very nice particel effects. I like how your weapon can cause more damage than the enemies :D

This was a very cool game to play. The difficulty buildup is just right and it makes you want to keep trying to beat your score. The mechanic is fun and punishes you for spamming. You will be spamming in the end though, it gets quite hectic. :P Very nice work!
You did the minimalist graphics and sounds perfectly to me. Also very interesting new take on the classic formula, very enjoyable to play and challenging.
Great style and interesting ideas at play here =).
Firing accurately is a bit difficult, though, and since projectiles can cause collateral damage it ends up being easier just to collide against the enemies.
Very clean and neat looking. I didn't realize at first that I had to catch my own bullets! Man, really cool feature, and hard. Nice sounds; the bouncing bullets and particle effects were very cool too. Nice work.

Very pretty and innovative.
Would have liked more variation to the sounds though.
Overall a great little game. Nice work!
