Savior: Saver of Souls, is an Endless Arcade Action-Platformer. It features multiple powerups, outrageously fiery hazards and a leader board!
A small village is set ablaze and the inhabitants are running around frantically for their lives. You come from a parallel plane of to transfer the souls of the villagers to safety! Armed with your cosmic blaster, you will release the villagers suffering poor souls into a new world of freedom.
Tips--
+ Focus on SAVING SOULS to achieve SUPPLY DROPS + Utilize SUPPLY DROPS when your current POWER UPS expire + Effectively wrap around the screen to avoid HAZARDS and SAVE SOULS + Utilize DROP-THROUGH and AIR-JUMP to reach POWER UPS floating above LAVA + Destroy BIG ROCKS to have a chance in obtaining a POWER UP + VILLAGERS may be used to block ROCKS + Utilize the shield to run through HAZARDS to escape sticky situations

Awesome, just awesome. It had cool music, cool weapons, cool graphics, well, the only thing that wasn't cool was the lava :D Well done, seemed really polished. It was really fast-paced.
Feels incredibly complete for an LD game. Awesome job, lots of fun to play and I really like how fast paced the action is. This is on my list of games to come back and play simply because I enjoyed it so much.
I like the super cratebox style weapon variation. also love the theme reversal on the targets. you are saving them with ice instead of killing them. sounds and music go nicely with the visuals. good job
Really epic. Great pixel, great music, great sound. The audio-visual cues and the controls are really tight which bring this "Endless Arcade Action-Platformer" to a whole other level. Amazing All round. A+
YES! This was awesome. One of the most fleshed out, solid games I've played for sure. For the future maybe add different level layouts. Really brilliant entry.
i like how some bullets go in different curves and directions! but there are a lot more reasons to be voted up for. simple yet fun game to play. good job!
Very polished and really fun arcade game. I think it is quite challenging to do a varied an interesting single screen game, but this one uses the available space really well.
Ah, the type of game that I love to play and wish I could write. Bookmarking this to come back to after LD judging.
It most definitely has a "one more go factor". I died lots, but kept coming back. It's reminiscent of Super Crate Box whilst being very different. I love the powerups, and it's incredibly polished.
Not bad! Not bad at all! It is a pretty fun game with a clear objective. Graphics are ok for their purpose. The controls feel a bit floaty, but good. I like that you have powerups. It is rather funny that you can just shoot villagers to collect their souls... Also the leaderboard is working strangely... putting out the google ID rather than the name.
As for improvements, just make the controls tighter maybe. Also, I kind of dislike that when you go off to one side you appear in the other. It is rather confusing, but that's just a personal preference.
P.S. I think you need to share your source code too for the 48h compo.

Loved the graphics, sound/music and gameplay :)
Thanks for rating and commenting! It's nice to hear everyone is enjoying it. I have wiped the leader boards so enjoy :3
Really brilliant entry.
I loved that the game was about rescuing people by shooting them in the face! Made for such a great experience.
Great concept and a real joy to play through. You should definately take it further!
I look forward to spending more time with this after I try play the remaining 2487 LD30 entries I haven't got to yet.

Cracking good game!
Amazing game.
Good:
+ Furious gameplay (and fun)
+ Upgrades that really change game experience
+ A leaderboard in a 48 hours game. How cool is that?
Bad:
- Loose theme connection
You created a likeable visual style and the sound effects work perfectly!
Going back to play more!

It's now up, along side a windows and mac client version for your pleasure! :D
the "save souls by shooting them" is a bit of a stretch to fit the theme but loads of fun all the same
gameplay bug
Position too the right or left side of the screen and shoot you observe that you shot in all direction and never lose
I agree with others that the connection to the theme is a little lose, but I've got no other criticisms - this is great!
