A super awesome top-down shooter game. Enemies will generate a DEAD ZONE when they die, which will block your way. Try to survive!

How to Play

Fun game, fits the theme really well, simple yet genius idea of leaving death trail after dying and blocking the way. Got the score of 53. Nicely done!

I mean what we have here is simply a super well-polished, finished game. The experience feels great, the camera shakes, the controls, the simple shapes yet great general vibe...
And one could easily imagine this game becoming a subjects to kind of friendly tournaments between friends, since you can have several different strategies : focus on shooting the enemies, or focus on cleansing the dead zones, gaining time, etc etc...
Congrats !

Great game with a tangent on the theme limited space!

Unsure what determines how large of a zone you clean up? At first I thought linking them would be rewarded but that doesn't seem to be the case. Fun game though, nice polish.

That's really clever game design! I like how they become harder to destroy when they're standing in dead zones, too. The graphics are very clean and nice to look at without distracting unnecessarily. Good job to the both of you!

I really loved what you did here! The theme was reeeally well thought of here, loved the dynamic speedy feel to the game, and also the matching music. The only caveat (and really this is just nit-picking, cause the game is amazing) is that the cursor could behave in a manner that responds to the player firing. Amazing entry, congrats!

Great music and sound effects! It's a pretty simple game, but those two things make it feel like so much more. I like it a lot!

Sleek design, limited space does make for a more interesting experience, wish it was easier to clear space and a more enjoyable shooting experience. Also, I really like the art of the fuzzy blotches left behind after the polka dots are packed, nice job!

Got 74.
Great concept that is well executed. Simple retro graphics, simplistic mechanic, and fit the theme perfectly.
Great job.
