Controls took a bit to get used to, but plays really nice

Allot of depth in the way you can order the drones to create different effects... but a bit difficult to select the one you want. Nice overall package.

Cracking presentation, audio, and gameplay, and lots done in 3 days, well done indeed! This one feels is near the top of the pile for sure.

Really great concept, fun and fast paced, and top notch graphics. My only complaint is i wish it had mouse support.

That's a cool game with a cool new mechanic!
We just played it on our twitch channel life as one of our games!

Wow! Great visuals and super fun to play! Just hard to really target the enemies properly, cause I'm too focused on getting my ships avoid them. Otherwhise it's preeetty good for a 3 days dev :o

I can't say I really knew what I was doing, but it didn't really matter. It was all so satisfying and intense, the amount of polish you guys squeezed out of this in such a short time is really impressive. I only wish there was some way to control everything a little more precisely, but maybe I just need practice.

Exciting and fun! I like the concept! Keep working, I want to buy it!

Great job, nice graphics and really fun. Challenging too which I like. I'm imagining this on mobile where you can move the drones with your finger, think it would work better :) Cheers!

I DONT KNOW WHAT IM DOING BUT IT'S AWESOME summarizes my experience of the first two minutes.

This game is really cool, the concept is really interesting. Is fun to play. I wonder what would give this game in multiplayer , it could be funny to have to survive by controlling his drone individually.
Good job!

Wow, this one is really good, nice polished and solid!
It's so interesting to use the theme as a shooting game in this way, the graphics are also stylish and gorgeous, good job :D

Fantastic look, feel and gameplay! Really nice build up of action and difficulty, and a very different attack method that means you really have to think about positioning. 58987!

Hi, nice game ! We're realizing a video with several games of the Ludum Dare #35.
Can you add your game on indiexpo.net ? (it's free)
So we can include also your game in the video ;)
p.s. write #LDJAM in the game's description

This game looks and sounds amazing, and it's a really cool new take on the bullet hell genre. I love that there are multiple ways to strategize. For example, in one round, I played defensively, keeping my shape small and aiming to the outside. On my second round, I shot towards my inside, and surrounded enemies aggressively. I found the "death net" strategy was a lot more effective.

Amazing job as always!

Stunning, just stunning. Controls little bit hard at first, but I think that handling is actually wonderful. Nicely done!
