Very strange, your game is crashing. Can't tell you much besides that I'm on a windows 7 and it instantly crashes. Sorry I couldn't play :(

The game works well here, but is very short and the enemys don't have anything diferent. Still, is fun to play.

Game crashes every time you die? Intentionally?

Nice game, I like the atmosphere! Too bad that shooting (even when coming from a helmet), is not very unconventional

The character looks funny, in a good way :)

Solid title, but I don't see traditional rogue like elements like procedurally generated content or rpg elements.

Fun little game. What was the unconventional weapon? Was there audio?

I like that you can actually finish this game. I didn't see the unconventional part of the weapon.

I liked the art style and the controls. Simple and fun game. No crashes for me. Plays great. Good job.

Nice stile and gameplay!

It's fun, but I don't think you addressed the theme very well because, yes, it's a helmet, an unusual weapon, but it shoots lasers, a quite usual weapon. You could have given the helment a better use, like filling it with water to kills the aliens (or whatever substance would do), bashing them with it, cutting them... there are plenty of possibilities. Graphics are good but I felt like there were very few levels, or they were too short.

Great little game. I was a little short but that doesn`t mean it wasn`t fun.
The rogue-element was didn`t make much influence on the gameplay, but I can see where you were goning with this.
The artstyle was awesome! And I loved that you shoot laser out of your mouth.

Very, very interesting idea about the loss of color! But what about the LD theme?

Short but sweet. Loved the graphics style. Could've used some SFX, though (but I'm one to talk, given my LD31 entry XD)

Got stuck in the wall right after I teleported to the first boos area :(
The graphics are great and the loss of color is a really nice idea. I don't see the helmet as an unconventional weapon though...

This was short but good. I like the artwork style and the fact you desaturate colors when player get hit. On some level you spawn too close from monsters. The game would improve greatly with just 3-4 sounds. You should have a look at Bfxr ou Labchirp for next LD
