I haven't ran into the problems with finding my way or moving as the 2 presvious posters. The only thing i would suggest is to do some prediction on enemies shooting. By this i mean instead of always shooting at where i am shoot where i'm going to be. Or within a random range of where i'm going to be, just make your enemies a little smarter.
Game looks great, the combat is poor though. Stopping mid air to swing is no good. If you did something more fluid with the combat and made the levels fully scrollable this would be an amazing game.
fishgames.com doesn't seem to exist and there are just white boxes drawn over the copyright areas. One would think if you are the original creator the game wouldnt be cropped and the art would be in full without the missing copyright sections.
I gave you a 2 instead of the 1 i normally give the shootorials. Atleast you added some new things.
If i'm not mistaken though i die when i hit something that i should move behind. The smoke stakc appears to be infront of me atleast.
