Very cool game :)

Although I didn't manage to reach the boss :/

It occupied a fun 10 minutes of my time :)

We streamed your game with Danae plays on Twitch. :) Here's a link:

Danae streams Ludum Dare 39: Day 1, part 3: Travel

This one is extremely fun, although quite difficult for me :( As you could see, I could barely reach the boss. The overall hectic feeling is intended I'm sure, but at times it might be too much. Also I didn't understand at first that the weapon power ups were not enemies, and you had to explain the yellow / purple bar to me. Maybe a slower tutorial / more levels with ramping difficulty? :) But still, this was very well polished and the game was very coherently put together. Good job! :)

This was a really great bullet hell style shooter. The graphics and audio were really amazing, really sold that scifi virtual kind of feel. The difficulty was hard, but it didn't feel cheaty. It took me a bit to figure out I could shoot, but that's probably just because I'm bad at reading instructions. I don't like that the game often forces me to downgrade my weapon, because only the blue weapon really seemed viable. Some kind of title screen would also be nice so I'm not just immediately dropped into the game.

Very nice game, awesome graphics. I like the psychedelic mood. The controls could be a bit more direct, the ship felt very floaty. Otherwise great entry.

Awesome graphics and sounds. Controls are maybe a _little bit_ floaty, but the game feel pretty polished otherwise.

A fun shooter overall. Well done.

Pretty cool, the tradeoff between weapons and health is pretty interesting. There's a few different playstyles you can take, which is rare for a space shooter. Good job!

Amazing game. I spend waaaay too much time playing. The controls feel balanced, the music is up beat and fits perfectly with the gameplay. 10/10

Really fun shooter with great controls and lots of challenge without feeling too unfair. The music and graphics were both fantastic. I have no real improvements or complaints that I can think of. Great work!

Really cool game. It's simple, but the sound and graphics go well. It's surprisingly hard but I enjoy it.

Good Job!
