Nice retro audio/visual. The game is simple but well implemented. A lower difficulty curve would be nice to allow for learning.

Plays well, the recoil on the fire is a nice touch.

Good little game. I cannot get past 30 seconds though. The graphics have a nice retro feel and for some reason, the game reminds me of Bubble Bobble.

I like the retro graphics. It was hard to figure out what to do to advance in the game.

Love the mechanics, graphics and very well implemented. The only thing I didn't like so much was the keys you chose to play but... that's a matter of taste. Awesome game.

Feels nice to play, but are the bats supposed to never actually die? I can't even kill the darn things.

@Tsumei Okay, I'll make sure to to rais-I mean lower the volume next time.
@Ashedragon They shouldn't be immortal, but admittedly I may or may not have raised the bat's health at the last minute.

I think this was a pretty interesting game, but if only I was any good and nice letting alone it was created for the LD

You win! fantastic game. I really like how simplistic it is, I'd say that enemies need to show their life status, and that it should start off spawning enemies slower. Other than that, you should consider taking this further! :) it's addictive too :) I enjoyed hovering above cracks and burning the guys as they come out, because they fly straight into all the balls :) Would have been cool also if the blue ones die to falling on the head and the others by fire, to give some variance. Really well done.

I really like the graphics and the gameplay. My only complaint would be that it is extremly hard, couldn't manage to kill more than two bats.

Suprising depth in the movement since you can use the recoil to move around. Would have liked if it was a bit easier to control movement in the air. Could also use some way of seeing how much hp the monsters have left and what kind of monster will spawn in the holes.

Great game, but the controls are pretty hard, along with killing bats, haha.

Nice looking graphics. Simple and enjoyable.

The graphics were very good and the game controlled well. But I wasn't able to figure out what to do :/

Very nice. I had fun with this one. Jumping, shooting mechanics are really fun. Evolving scene is also great.

Capitals24 Dec 2013, 12:14
Good Game, but the enemies are a little to hard to kill. It would be nice if they got gradually harder.

Lovely game. I love retro visuals :)

Nice little game, but hard... :-)





I like the art, and the gameplay definitely comes together quite well.
