Huge spiders are ensnaring all the planets in the galaxy! Only you can stop them. They are invulnerable though, aim for their webs. Good Luck!

WSAD to move, space to shoot.

Oh my gosh this game is so glitchy and insane and FUN. I really like how when you get ensnared in a web the spiders immediately bear down on you. I also like the messages when the planets get saved :P

Pretty neat idea!

This game is so much fun. Me playing this game: "Yeah I got this, I have faster bullets now so I can OMG RUN AWAY FORM THE GIANT SPIDERS RUN AWAY RUN... Yeah no problem I got this. Shootin' webs... OMG RUN AWAY!"

Awesome take on the theme. Could use some music though. I like that the planets become obstacles later in the game. Nicely done!

Innovative idea. Really enjoyed getting stuck in the spider webs :P Nice entry. :)

Hi there. Found the spider attack far too quick. Really like the way the spider stitches planets together. Needs a bit more sound. Good job!

Best use of the theme I've seen so far! Great concept.

Love how you can get tangled up in the web. Good fun. Some creepy music when they chase you would the icing on the cake.

Haha "connected worlds" I get it! :P Great fun. Only critique I have is did you try doing aiming with the mouse instead of WASD? Might be less frustrating!

Man this is intense! Nice work!

Really unique idea, good job on the execution!

I really like the spider AI. Especially how they only occasionally run straight at you and follow you for a short while, and then go back to ensnaring all of the planets. I really liked this entry, great work man.
