That's a nice concept ! Fun game :)

As an avid Shmup player, I really love the core mechanic of swapping between ships to pick up items.

I could see this idea being expanded upon and leading to a very fun game filled with tense movement decisions (what if, for example, each ship had a different weapon you had to adapt to when swapping to pick up items...)

As it stands out, the game is really fun and I had a good time discovering the abilities of each ship, I'm also impressed by the amount of content you've put in, even including a boss battle!

Nice graphics! Like how you can switch between 3 ships, idk if there was a tutorial that taught me this but I didnt know that you could only pick up power ups of your color oof. Great game though! :D

Oooooh, just played this for a couple minutes and couldn't figure out why I couldn't pick up certain powerups, lol.  Thanks!

This is a good game. I didn't encounter any bugs so good job there.

A few comments:

  • You can't actually die. Though that may be intentional if the death dialog bubble means what it sounds like.
  • Took me a minute to figure out the different color ships can only pick up the items of their color.
  • The sound is balanced slightly left.

Great job!

Yeah when you die it loop back to the beginning of the level but that part was rushed so the points aren't reset (not a feature, a bug 😋) and it may not be as clear as we wanted it to be!

Thanks for playing !

It gave me classic game vibes really nice concept

The art, both visual and sound, is very good. It's a classic that's been played countless times, but that doesn't mean you'll stop playing. I finished it!!! ;)

Super fun switching ships. Found myself using the tank way more.  Getting the powerups and them not being picked up was a little confusing.

This was a really fun game! Matching ships with the items of the respective color was a great idea, and the matching color lasers was as well. Also having all of them auto-shoot was a great touch that made the rest of the mechanics  more manageable than they would have been otherwise. I could see this taken much farther, hope you keep working on it! Nice work!

I like the ship matching mechanic, it took me a moment to catch on. Great job!
