I didn't really get what was going on, but the atmosphere is really nice, I love the graphics! I wish I had been able to tell if I'd been shooting or not.

I can't play. The .jar loads and nothing happens. :(
Okay I got it working, and I've got to say it's pretty awesome. Didn't expect multiple levels and bosses. I only got as far as the pentagon boss. Really cool idea, but kinda hard to figure out what to do in the beginning, not knowing how to progress. But turns out it's really cool if you stick with it. Good job on the sounds too, they fit the game well.
Absolutely loved the music and the gameplay concept was quite interesting. It could do with some sort of progress indicator such as a score/quest system though.
Really cool once you get the hang of it. Love how you represent health and cool downs with colours and shapes. Would be great if it was a little bit more organised, sometimes it was a bit chaotic with enemies and bullets on the screen.
Little stuff you know? like, more feedback. For example. I noticed that there were some power ups, but i quite don't understand what was the benefit of getting them.
Hey you made the plane mod for Minecraft :D I tried playing your game but after loading it just hits a blank screen and never shows up :| Using Firefox.

This was a very, very impressive game. It could definitely use some explanation and/or tutorial at the start, however. I only gave it a second chance after reading some of the comments here, and I'm glad I did. I love how the information is displayed - the weapons on each side of your shape, the recharge time being clearly displayed and your health dependent only on the color. The visuals and sound in general were strong, and (oddly) reminded me of Everyday Shooter. The bosses (the ones I got to, anyway) were well designed, and while it was difficult it rarely felt unfairly so. Great game.
@jamioflan: yes, openjdk7. Turns out I had to install the icedtea-web-java7 package to get to run your game. I am *not* happy with it going fullscreen and not exiting when I press ESC and changing my monitor's resolution. I had to kill firefox to get my desktop back.

Over all a really fun game.
But, i think it could use a LOT of polishing.

Asides from that, it's a cool game :D
Up/Down/Left/Right works too, because we wouldn't want to alienate Dvorak...
