An alien Invasion!? Preparations were made for warfare in space… Only, we didn’t expect it so soon. Needless to say, we weren’t ready, we only have one ship prototype and one person to pilot it.
That is you!

Playability:
Got a score of 1140 on my first run and didn't understand what the unique game mechanic was until I bled an enemy ship through. Absolutely awesome use of the background on this and entirely unexpected.
Theme:
Fits the theme well and directly ties it to gameplay in a compelling way. Good work.
Cleverness:
Incredibly clever use of the Earth in the background. Would love to see this game expanded to more planets or more enemy types.
Artistic Style:
Consistent and simple art style. Good overall.
Fun game! Simple controls, easy to pick up, typical gameplay. No notes!
Nice little shooter though seems like may not be beatable. Played well, smooth action and easily understandable. Could use some 'hit' explosions when getting hit or hitting the enemies since they take multiple shots, maybe some damage indications too. Cool entry!
I haven't played that style of game in a long time. Twas a good implementation of it! The visuals of the planet getting hit were really neat. The projectiles had some weird range differences going on and sometimes would get canceled out or not do anything? Other than that it's a pretty solid game. Nice work!
Noooo! I failed Earth! Good job on the game, it's a fun lil shmup :)
Fun game, I like the sprites and sound effects. I like the way the alien ships that pass you you can see go down to earth. Nice difficulty spike. I thought it was easy at first, but it increased in difficulty smoothly.
