It's pretty fun, especially with the sound effects. Good non-standard gameplay. Music!

Game crashes on my Windows 7 :(

If someone who has the game crashing on him on native Windows environments would describe the problem more specifically, I'd be grateful. I've tested this on Windows 7 and 8 64-bit without without any crashes myself.But due to some reason the game window is falsely declared not responding by Windows even though the game is running, though this is fixed by picking a level(Pressing enter).

Doesn't run on Windows 7 64 bits, nice intro music.

I might be a little biased because I made the graphics for this game, but it does work at my own computer and at my mother's older computer. Both of them are running Windows 7 x64. It's just that the game might show that it stopped corresponding on full screen with this older computer, but if you press enter, it still continues to your game.

Hope this helps,

Oh yea, and try to get a score of 60000-70000 to get to a point where the enemies start spawning at the rate that it's rather hard to kill all of them before the next batch comes. :) (My biggest score is on map 1, around 114 000.)

Sincerely,
