This is a constantly spinning space shooter in the style of 80's color vector games.
Goal theme: “Make the player Dizzy” Challenge: Use only two keyboard keys
Controls: Z=Thrust SPACE=Fire
Your distance from the vortex governs your rotation rate. Gravity will pull you in. Thrust to oppose it. Firing causes push-back. Use it to descend quickly! The blockers appear after 800 points and will repel your shots. Land on their core to destroy them. Extra lives at 5000.
Super Clever! It was confusing at first, because I thought I was playing the swirling thing in the center. If you have time to add some clean-up pieces, maybe add a visual cue when the player spawns, to pull attention away from the black hole/vortex? Otherwise, great idea, and awesome game!
Challenging game, fun to play! I included it in part 3 of my MiniLD #56 compilation video series, if you want to check it out :) http://youtu.be/QPOI-iwGJ3I
