I really like this! It’s hard (which is good) and I’ve not finished it yet, but I get strong Dropzone vibes off it. One thing I’d like would be a more visible player character, it can be a bit hard to see.
Hm, I'll have to see what I can do, the player sprite is small to give you a lot of room to maneuver and I'm not a big fan of hitboxes that are significantly smaller than what you can see on the screen (there are a few pixels shaved off in every direction but it's no modern shmup level discrepancy). I always just assumed the prominent trail of beams emanating from the player sprite makes it easy to find on the screen.
So I’ve played this again tonight and this time my lighting was better…when I played it first, the light was ok but not ideal and I think that’s what caused my problems.
Playing it under brighter light today I could see my player just fine :) I really like how careful you have to be with the controls, or else you go bouncing round the screen madly!

I’m really enjoying this. Love the score chase elements and it’s really fun to just pick up and play. Can’t wait for a final release!
I could totally see this on the catalog if it had slightly better graphics. (i would buy it if it was (and if it had online highscore))
