Good fun, I like the style

The run and gun style is good fun :-D I didn't have time to give it a good play through, but basically:

1. Graphics are nice, and animation is good
2. Bullets need to "travel" - someone already mentioned this. I find this a quality missing from many shooters with mouse controlled shooters. Bullets won't hit the target unless you are pointing at them = frustrating. This gets annoying after a while, especially in more difficult stages
3. Gun SFX need to sound more gutsy.

Otherwise good fun, but a bit repetitive and I wouldn't find myself coming back after an initial gaming session.

Nice of you to do the work but...

Nicer buttons would be great for purdiness. You or someone else could animate Duke actually speaking the words. I know it's a sound board but they've been done a million times - someone should make one that's a bit more interesting. 4 stars for taking the time to put it together.

Nicely put together, but ulimately - boring as

I've given you a 5 for putting a nice game together, but this is just repetitive to the max. Wave after wave, with no sense of progression other than having more money.

It's a really great concept, I think you should rethink the mechanics of the games.
At first I thought with the your guys going across the screen that you had repel the enemy back against their side of the screen so you can cross to there. I think that would be a cool idea - it'd be like Lemmings but full frontal war - excellent!

Good work - but the gameplay and pace needs some balane.

Cool battleship style game

It's nice, but you really need to show where the bones are when the game is finished when you lose. That's really important!

Good effort but lacking polish

For the most part this works.

Unfortunately it's let down by:

- Poor grammar. If English is not your first language, you should get someone to help you with your scripts.
- Character moves WAY too slow
- You should use a custom cursor
- Weapons are poorly balanced - pistol kills enemies in 3 shots, shotgun takes 2 - firing rate of pistol makes it a better weapon
- Glitchy, in the 4th level the mouse aiming went funky

Nice visuals, pumpin' sound track

Great fun this game. The use of colours are great, and the music goes well with the semi-psychadelic colour schemes.

Only nag is the control, which is important! The "area" that you can actually control the vehicle in is small. I feel like an elephant trying to ride a bicycle.

Looking forward to more work in the future.

Another one...

If people are going to keep on releasing these styles of games, some originality or a spin on the format is needed poorly.

The game doesn't do it for me. Levels are boring, animations are basic. There is no drive to want to keep you castle alive.

The enemy waves are poorly balance.

Overall I couldn't recommend this game.

Nice idea - BAD PHYSICS

I like your idea. It's a kid/family friendly game that has action elements without violence or blood etc.

The phsyics are basically, crap. Are you going for a space feel gravity-wise? If so it needs major work. The levels needs to be larger.

Running around the planets in a circle is a nice concept, but I think you should consider going for a more conventional platformer format. Than maybe you can have fun figuring out features around the gravity/space/weight-less-ness theme.

Good luck, I think you have an idea worth building up.

No originality, needs work

I made it through 11 waves of this game and just had to stop. I couldn't see any incentives to continue. One major flaw I think, is the screen gets too cluttered, and there is no feel for any type of "speed" in this game.

Maybe I need to play on to see more features, but I didn't really care to. The game needs better pace, upgrades need be more interesting. Maybe upgrades to the ship (other than health) and not just the guns.

PROS
- Nice enough graphics
- Sound effects

CONS
- Upgrades are boring
- No incenvites to continue wave after wave
- Screen gets cluttered

Nice fun game - aiming needs some tweeking

This game was fun but the aiming got a bit iffy. Basically you have to put the mouse right on the enemy, because the actual shot won't go any further than where you are targetting.

Bullets don't just hit thin air :)

Two thumbs up.
