I honestly think the pip system is really stupid...if you make them disappear then have it auto collect...if you dont have auto collect then dont make them disappear...and you shouldnt have ppl spawn RIGHT next to you

Maybe it's the fact that this is played on a computer, or maybe it is the fact that my 'd' key is messed up and just resting my finger on it will 'press it down' or it will read it being pressed down, launching me into any foes to the right of me, but this take on Geometry Wars seems a lot harder, setting it apart from the very easy Ether Wars. I like it. Good job at taking Geometry Wars to the flash community.

I also experienced a bug where after I finished a game, my number of pips wouldnt appear.........Oh I forgot to mention, I think the pips system works fine, it forces the player to multitask, collecting pips and fighting/avoiding enemies.

game is excellent except for one game-breaking problem: the spawns need to be fixed! Either make a wider circle around your ship in which enemies can't spawn or make a phase in period, like in the regular geometry wars, where enemies were stationary and immobile for about 1/2 second before they were deadly.
The best solution, however, would be to have a (short, perhaps 1/4th second) spawn 'warning', and then introduce a smart spawn circle. With this, you have a ring around your player in which he can't spawn, plus a cone ahead of him, in the direction he's moving, where enemies can't spawn. This cone should be at least as long as the distance the ship can travel in 1/2 second. This means that the player will always get warnings before an enemy can spawn directly ahead of him, but can still spawn close behind him. In addition, you could make an adjustable phase-in time, like 1/5th of a second if spawning behind the player, but 1/3rd of a second is spawning in front.

not near as good as Ether War or thats other game, um um, someone help me out here... but yea, this isnt no where as fast paced graphically beautiful, or challenging as the other "Geometry Wars" like games

5/5. I love the look and feel of this game. Very fast-paced and addictive gameplay. I'm glad the store is so simple and doesn't try and demand too much of your time and attention; keep me in the game!

double post =(
anyways yeah this game needs to be fixed badly you die way too fast and you cant heal yourself and is the flash vers of geo wars

If this isnt an exact clone of geometry for flash wars then Ralph Nader will be elected president ... of Mexico. 5/5 i love that game!

Why are people complaining about the health? You get hit your health goes down. Standard fare.
I would like to see some warning of the enemies spawning. I was losing most of my health because ships were spawning right in front of me which spoils the fun.

It's alright... loses points for having too small of a visible area and ripping graphics straight from geometry wars pixel-for-pixel.

Very entertaining! I love the music and sounds, and the available upgrades. The different enemies keep things mixed up and on your toes. I hate the ones with the frontal shields... My only complaint is that the shield recharge upgrade doesn't really repair enough. I feel that the games replay value goes down significantly because of this. If there was something that would help keep you in the game longer I would probably want to play it again, but since I've tried and died about 5-6 times now, I'm pretty much done.

The danged trangle ones you have to shoot from behind spawn like 30 at a time haha, and right on top of me... maybe i just suck at this game but damn... it gets hard fast once they show up...

Wow almost an exact steal from Geometry Wars. Would be good but far too close try to be more original 2/5 only because I reeeaaally liked it

Becomes horrible as soon you can't really dodge any opponents that spawn too close to you. Especially the shielded ones cause this 'problem'. Game is nice to that point though.

cycerio... he has a azerty keyboard... not a qwerty... no wasd on there... even so looking at pics of azerty i dont see as much of a problem as you seem to claim there is OgrOFix

There reaches a point only a minute or two in where it's just too fast and hard to be any fun. Maybe a more gradual difficulty curve would help.

Yeah definitely stay with geometry wars' original enemies. Your star enemy and triangle enemy that need a rear kill suck and ruin your game as soon as the area becomes a bit messy.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
This sucks. Good idea, but poorly executed. Enemies spawned on top or too close to avoid, and the health goes up too fast, and the pips disappear way too fast.

ogrofix: use wasd for movement, q is easy to hit from there and hit space with your wrist, not that hard to figure out...
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
it would be 5/5 stars IF the enemies didnt spawn on me all the time and all the stuff doubles in price OTHERWISE its 1/5
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
Geometry Wars is better. You should have done a strict rip-off.
Enemies should spawn further from the ship, and maybe drop the ones that need to be killed from behind.

OgrOFix... get a normal keyboard or get over it... it sounds harsh but almost EVERYONE has a qwerty so thats how games are designed... i know how you feel I have a macintosh and there are plenty of games (the big amazing kind not just flash) that are just not available to me... oh wellll
