The visuals here are really well done! Movement felt a bit too rigid though, it would be nice if the spaceship turned more smoothly. I think all the feedback I'd like to give has already been mentioned by others, so all I’ll say is: great job! You did super well for your first game jam entry!

Thank you for playing :D!

The standout feature for this game is how surprisingly intuitive the controls are for a 3d space combat game. The main things that need work are the jittery movement, and a clear indication of where the edge of the playfield is. Now for some nice but unnecessary suggestions; a lock on control so you can shoot faraway enemies easier would make it a lot less frustrating. I also think a dodge button (think barrel rolling) that gives you I-Frames could help when things get hectic. When I tried boosting away from enemies I would just run into their bullets and die faster! Oh, it also looks like the score isn't being displayed and tracked on the game over screen properly, but that's not too big of a deal. Overall, very impressive for your first jam!

Congrats on getting finished in your first game jam, it has a very solid base, had no performance issues, hitboxes seemed proper. I'd add a interpolation to smooth out the ship movement and an indicator for when there are enemies offscreen so it is a bit more fair for the players (think something like the little bars/effects that appear on fps games when you get hit)

Fun wave shooter, could use a reticle, especially when you add verticallity.

This game reminds me of the flying sequences in the old Ratchet & Clank games (loved those). Your biggest setback is going to be that jittery movement. Smooth it out, fix the score menu, and you're kosher. Good job (。◕‿◕。)

Very solid simple and fun wave shooter. The boosting and slight camera jitter are the only main issues, with an overall really well done movement system. Incredible job for a first game jam!

Love the graphics and arcady space shooter feel, quite difficult too which was nice

The high score in the web version wasn't working for me, it said my score was 0, and my only critique would be it's quite hard to tell where the edges of the map are, but apart from this I really enjoyed it - awesome job!
