Simple but effective idea
This is an interesting idea! I found it pretty hard to aim my shots, maybe it would feel better if you could shoot with a button press instead of shooting automatically at regular intervals, though once I started to kind of figure it out it did make for an interesting challenge I think. As a screenshake enjoyer, I very much appreciated the heavy screenshake whenever a shot was fired, though the projectiles felt a bit small for how powerful they otherwise felt. I liked it! Great job :)
Really like it! The controls actually weren't too bad, it was quite easy to know what to do and the actual gameplay is really fun :) The impact sounds when shooting are also really cool,
really great idea and fun gameplay just wished there is a tutorial level i needed to play some time to figuer it out , nice game !
Thanks We'll make sure of that in our upcoming games
Definitely a cool idea for the gameplay loop! Just tapping to change direction while shooting on a cooldown. I think it needs more time to cook though, I'm not sure how to increase the score to win as killing enemies doesn't do it. It's also a bit too overwhelming to try to shoot enemies while simultaneously dodging their bullets.
In my opinion, it should have been one or the other:
As people already pointed out, this is a fresh concept that can work, I think its pretty cool. You guys can really turn it into something interesting!
Thank you for the comment, We will improve ourselves
The concept is fun and the controls feel responsive, which is a great start. However, the game still feels very raw. One issue is that you can pass several rounds without actually doing anything which removes the challenge. The controls aren't shown anywhere on screen, so new players have no guidance. The death screen also needs work it wasn't immediately clear that I had died, I initially thought it was just another enemy attack from the character orbiting the planet.
This is an interesting concept. I wish there were some kind of beat to time my shots better, and my score never seemed to increase.
