I don't see how the fact that this is my first game makes a difference, but thx I guess.

Under rating threshold (show) Nice going with the level-ups. Made the progression a lot less boring. Overall, as a bullet-hell type guy, I have to say this fight isn't particularly epic, or particularly hard, on 'hard', but hey, obviously I'm not your audience, right? 4/5

+ - !

Developer response from Gama11

Well, if you beat hard mode easily, you're a lot more skilled than the average player here. Congratz in that. :)

Under rating threshold (show) Stage 2- easy has many stationary safe spots. Medium has few statioary safe spots, and being even slightly away from the position of the safe spots result in getting hit while stationary. I have yet to see any on hard or survival.

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

I don't think those safe spots are too much of a problem in med and easy, hard mode stays hard.

Under rating threshold (show) Top 2 commenters are forgetting that they killed the Grinning Colossus. The Grinning Cobossus takes a lot more than a chandelier to kill.

Developer response from Gama11

The stress is on "a lot" here.

Under rating threshold (show) I remember when we did it the old fashioned way. We only used a rope, a chandelier, and some fire of the wall.

Right, the good old times...

Under rating threshold (show) controls are bad shit's too easy hitboxes are bad

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

What's so bad about the hitboxes and the controls? The hit detection is pixel perfect, actually.

Under rating threshold (show) It was pretty fun, but I kinda wish the bosses bullets were bigger, or easier to see...

You might need some glasses in that case. ;P

Under rating threshold (show) Re-name: "You Have To Shoot The Boss" Also, the "Grinning Cobossus" isn't grinning. It's face is all like: l O = O l

Under rating threshold (show) Please tell people you can also press space to "unpause" the game. I've spent near 10 points on upgrades I don't want, because that's where my ship is.

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

Oh, yeah.. Another bug I should fix. Ty for pointing that out!

Developer response from Gama11

Yep, that letter makes the difference.

AKPanther

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) I would like to see a short pause after I unpause the game, so I don't accidentally run into bullets I didn't remember were there.

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

Good idea. I'll definetely add that feature if I develop another shmup.

Under rating threshold (show) In the second stage, you can stay in one spot and never get hit. You might want to fix that.

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

Only seems to occur in easy and medium mode, so it's not that bad...

Firartix

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Very nice game for a first game o_o Rated 5/5, because it's simple and short... yet great.

Under rating threshold (show) I remeber the good old days when I had to defeat him with just a rope and a nicely placed chandlier.

Developer response from Gama11

Yeah, those gold old days...

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Second phase is probably a bit too easy (only tested easy and medium, assuming hard is the same), you can stay in one spot and not get hit. It takes a bit of time though, but don't think any achievement or anything is time based (that counts towards you).

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from Gama11

Yeah, a lot of ppl mentioned that already, but, it's just one phase.

Under rating threshold (show) Instantly rate it 5/5 just because of the name. Then played the game, and knew it deserved it. Great job! :D

Thx. ;D

Under rating threshold (show) You are putting the top left of the ship on the cursor instead of the center (or maybe top-center).

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

Hm, you're right, I should probably fix that.

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) I like how a select few commenters are completely missing the point. "Hey, that name makes me think of the Grinning Colossus from You Have to Burn the Rope!"

+ - !

(1)

Developer response from Gama11

I like how your comment is completely missing the point.

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) Dude, I admire your spirit, but that is a terrible UI for the level-up screen when using the mouse.

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from Gama11

Would be nice to know what exactly's terrible about it - to be able to improve it.

EyalPasko

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) 5/5 just because i am a HUGE fan of "burn the rope" and of the Grinning Colosos

Under rating threshold (show) great game except he wasn't grinning :/

Who would grin while being shot?

Boneless

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) You have some very liberal views on collision detection.

(3)

Developer response from Gama11

I do? It's pixel perfect actually.

Galaga1971

Oct. 21, 2011

Under rating threshold (show) umm maybe this is a joke but when you press space it says GAMA paused. Should that be GAME? or is GAMA11 being funny?

+ - !

(2)

Developer response from Gama11

Obvious pun is obvious I guess.

Under rating threshold (show) and i thought the reference to the Grinning Colossus was just random. But I'm happy that its really linked to the Burn The Rope Game! Very nice game!

Developer response from Gama11

Still kind of random, though. :D
