You are a long 1 ship fighting an entire 0 fleet. No coming back, you only get your single ship. There can only be 1's. Kill as many 0 ships as you can before you die. Good luck.

There's a bullet counter in the top left corner.

Interesting take on the theme. When I first booted up the screen I got the intro and it tossed me right into the game, but when I died it sent me to the main menu? Just a little bug I noticed.

It's hard to kill enemies once they start firing, I can't really get a hit on them when they're firing so rapidly.

The background was a little distracting with the flashing.

I like the binary theme, good idea :) Like Garrick, I had some trouble to kill enemies but it was cool to try to win ;)

Something different concerning the theme, really nice idea =)

It's really hard to see the enemies though (and their shots) because of the flashing background. And... it took me a while to "find" the button to restart (or actually start the game the first time :P)

Pretty cool idea for the theme! And although things can be somewhat hard to see at times, overall I liked the graphics.

Had to play this from the name, was hoping for cyberpunk goodness, but a interesting take on the theme. The music and sfx can get a little repetitive and the colours are a little blinding. just sitting in one row made it easy to game the system.

It was super hard to see and yet somehow I actually had a lot of fun. I was really hoping to not see a lot of the far too obvious "1 life" take on the theme, but I like that you incorporated it into the plot.

Wow, bit harsh on the eyes but, very cool!

Interesting theme, but the gameplay is a bit bland.

I liked it but like most of the comments I thought it was kinda hard to kill the enemy's. Nice use of the theme

That was awesome :). At first I thought the graphics would annoy me (the menu is a bit hard to read) but in the actual game it fit really well!

Well this was a cool game idea: like the 1's and 0's theme feel. The graphics where kind of hard for me like i sometimes couldn't see the enemy bullets because of the color. Also the game is kind of hard but it gets fun because of that. Great work n_n

The title screen is hard to make sense of, but the rest of the visuals fit the game's theme well. The game doesn't seem to really go anywhere, with just one enemy that keeps coming.

Couldn't find the start button at first :)

Huge hitbox makes baby Seppel cry. Contrast makes my eyes hard. Hardest part of the game was trying to find out where the start button was. I'd love this game if it were on Glorious Trainwrecks. :)
