A Snowball's Chance In Space

hmmm couldnt figure it out, maybe something to do with where the little ships come out of, but after 6-8 deaths I gave up. Thanks.

I don't know how to finish the game. I died many times but seemed to be unable to find a way to defeat the enemies.

Good art and well polished. Too bad you only get one level.

I couldn't get it to run unfortunately. I have Windows 7, 6gb RAM, AMD graphics card.

Cool game I just wish it was longer. I was able to succeed and defeat the ship on the first try, but this meant the game was like 10 seconds. :)

Yes, sadly I wasn't able to make it as long as I wanted to :(

Can't play windows games

I couldn't figure out where to shoot the mothership... maybe give some kind of a clue? Trial and error is no fun! Good execution, though!

The game didnt start and I dont know why.

Like the concept and especially the enemy ship movements but I am clearly missing something because I couldn't tell when I should be using my one missile.

This looks really fun, but I couldn't figure it out! Sorry! I'll try it again some time, but for now it's added to my to do folder!

It's a nice game, though a bit too easy to beat.

You should have more levels that you have to beat, maybe salvage one missile from the defeated ship and using it on the next one.

I defeated the aliens. A p-pow.

I don't think it was that difficult to figure out where to shoot. The whole thing's symmetrical, so it was obviously going to be either the bottom or the top.

The control scheme is cool. I enjoyed just flying around dodging things for a bit at the start.

Nice one man.

Quite a short game, the boss didn't really have anything that made him interesting.

Took a few tries but wasn't really sure how to destroy the big ship? Is there a weak point? Good start though.

For those of you who try to run it but it just doesn't start:
You probably don't have the XNA 4.0 Framework installed.
Link is above description.

If that doesn't work let me know.

Thanks for playing my game everyone :)

I've just checked that you can destroy the enemy starship using two differents strategies :P. Good idea but toooooo short. But anyway you finished the game, congratulations!

I like the mothership graphic.

hahaha Excellent Work, i love the pixel art on this game! :D Was kind of hard but was fun to play! Great work n_n

Couldn't figure it out originally based on ship design - I assumed I would be shooting some specific feature of the ship: into the docking bay, engines, etc., but a comment's suggestion made it not terribly difficult. I liked how the cycles of the weapon sounds were a simple multiple at eachother, making kind of a beat out of the sounds.

Good usage of atmosphere together with gameplay!
Nice!

Nice and working Game!
I figured out quite fast, what to do (and where to shoot). Unfortunately the game closes after i destroyed the alien ship, so no ending scene, credits or score for me. :-(
More levels would have been great, also so Music could have given the game some nice touch as well as some more particle effects.
The always displayed notice for Fullscreen is not neccesary and distracts me a little bit.
Nevertheless a nice game which fits the theme in multiple ways!

I figured it out! :D
I like the control scheme a lot. Would play a fully realised non-one-missile version! :D
Nice work!

Good attempt at the theme. though it wasn't quite clear how you would need to use your only missile.

I like how you are just out of luck if you miss. Its a nice use of the theme.

I like the twist on the theme: one missile, doesn't matter.

Like the art.

I beat the game!!! Nice job! I included it in part 10 of my Ludum Dare Compilation video series, if you'd like to take a look :) http://youtu.be/iZspNc9Kmjk

Nice idea, but i think the implimentation of the jam theme kind of ruins this game. Only getting one missle makes this anticlimactic. Maybe if you had to go through a level before coming to the boss. Just an idea :D
