Do not get shot is a hard shoot'em up.

You only get one try to complete the level. When you get shot, game over.

Developed in plain javascript. Used Construct 2 for the prototype.

The result isn't exactly what I had in mind initially but i'm quite happy with it. I've wanted to make a shoot'em up for quite a long time, now it's done.

I Like this game! Powerups would be a great adition, butits really fun!
Cheat : Hold(LeftArrow + Space)

If the bullets were maybe a tad slower this would be perfect, One you get in a bit if there is lots of moving object all the bullets go invisible and you're in for sudden death.

Pretty cool sort of bullet-time game you have here. Even though it seems hard, I think its quite 'fair' in its mechanics. Well done! :)

Thank you for your comments :)

@vanaficionado it's not really a cheat, you'll go up to the end of the level but you will have a "low" score ;)

@ParaPup I wanted the bullets to go fast so you have to react quickly when they're coming. By invisible you mean you experienced a bug ? Never seen bullets disappear while testing

@GameRespect thank you, that one is quite simple, vessel and bullets have the same speed ^^

Some more bullet patterns is much needed, otherwise it's a pretty fun game.

Very optimistic having 9 zeros in the score box with that level of difficulty! :D

I enjoyed it. Nice job.

Not sure if there is an end to the level or not as I am poor at twitch games to begin with and only having one life makes it even harder but it was entertaining.

Sooo hard!! But I had fun :D. You should try one of those music generators to get a background track going!

Cool entry.

It doesn't work in Chrome for me, for some reason, it just shows a white screen when you start. It works fine in Firefox though.

Nice stuff, really difficult, I couldn't last more than maybe 10 seconds!
