GrinderX is a Danmaku or Bullet Hell Style Game
Currently there are 2 levels in the game.
WASD to control movment, mouse to aim and fire.
That's about it!
P.S. Unzip the Contents of the Zip to a folder.
P.P.S. Please Let me know if it doesn't work on OSX / Linux as it's only windows tested. I will try to solve the problem ASAP.

I´m not a big fan of bullet hell games. Though this is a solid implementation of one. Nice variety of enemies. Put some background music and actual graphics in it and it is a nice game! Not bad!

really cool enemy designs, but kinda hard at some point.

DaRaziel, Thanks for playing! ^^ I'm going to try and release a post-compo version in the next couple of weeks to improve the graphics, add more levels and fix some of the issues :)

Very hard, but rewarding once effort is put forth. Consider adding a "hook" to keep the players there long enough to enjoy.

Bullet hell, true enough,

This game was really hard but fun to play, i also like how you have added the score system, only minor complaint, you only move in 8 directions up down left right, and all of the ones in between, you should make it so that you kind of drift and can curve your movement, overall nice game :)

The enemy bullet patterns are good looking!

The game crashed on me as soon as the wave 2 started. I am on windows 7.

I find it hard to move around AND shoot precisely at the same time. My eyes can't be at 3 different spots (Me, The ennemy, My cursor)

Otherwise, a well executed game ! Good job !
