One of the easiest, and also the most boring, games I have ever played. Stand in front of bullets, have mouse pointer vaguely towards enemies, wait, win. The game is literally just waiting for enemies to shoot so they kill themselves. The amount of bullets on screen did not present me with a challenge. I never came close to dying. Every level is the same. Sometimes enemies start or go off screen, making it harder to hit them. The biggest enemy is the wave counter, because this stretches levels on artificially long.9 found this helpful
this game simply has not enough content for the price, in 25min you have round trough the entire game and that was it. no metaprogression, difficulty increase, anything. the problem is i have seen demo's with more replay value then this game and it's a real shame for the idea is solid but the execution is severly lacking.5 found this helpful
Other guys have noted that when enemies are off-screen you can't hit them. The thing is, if they are there for too long or if they're stuck I'm not sure, they are moved back on the screen, and you get hit by their body if you're in the way. It should be better if you or the enemies can come out from the opposite side of whichever border they go into, would be more challenging as well
too easy, and enemy can bounced so far away
A pretty short game like finish completely in a half hour sitting kind of short. The game is fun in the sense that just having a shield and playing defensively is a novel concept. The game needs to either have an infinite mode or do something to shake things up a little bit but how much can you really ask for with a game this low in cost running $2 at full price. Games like this remind me of how much was loss with the death of flash game websites because it would have been right at home in those spaces.
Simple, cheap, easy fun. Picked up and played for a couple of runs cause I was bored. But for the love of god please fix the SFX slider
