Description
Help the Seven Sisters defeat evil in this fun avoiding/shooting adventure.
My take on the skill genre and continuation of the story of mythological Pleiades. This sequel is a child avoiders and shooters never had. It begins simply just like any avoider but soon you're thrown into a difficult shooter where you can only take 7 hits and each of these hits count.
Oh and you're being chased.
How to Play
Mouse to move.
Space bar to shoot.
Click anywhere to shield up.
M to mute.
Enter to pause.

Kinda a cool idea, I liked what's behind it, but the gameplay isn't there yet I'm afraid. It's just wayyyyyy too easy to lose a sister, maybe for one thing dump the "can't touch the sides" and just make actual on-screen stuff deadly, not the edges of the screen. Second, the constantly rotating pattern the sisters do, especially when you have a pile of them just leads to inevitable massacre, as they will invariably cheerfully crank their faces into saw blades and such that you had avoided just fine. Lastly, a lot of the upgrade screen isn't terribly clear. We need some explanations as to what does what. Please do work on it a bit though, it looks like it could be quite fun with some tinkering. And yeah the sounds are pretty funny :)

when you buy, for example, the slingshot(20), all the other weapons should low their prices by 20(slingshot's cost), that way you dont feel like wasting gold and you can just buy weapons and it's always a plus

additionally health bars to all the killable stuff (after first hit?) would be cool as well! :)

Its also way too easy to 'cheat' for experience. Finishing a level slower (at a speed just faster than that thing following you) will net you more than 500 exp, whilst finishing the level ASAP gives you 100 exp or so. Another thing is that in the third level, you can kill all of the 'bosses' except for 1, then just go into idle-mode to generate infinite amounts of exp.
Also, you can rush to the end, clicking with the right mouse button during the game, this will result your pleiades to run off the screen, while you can still control the scolling speed. By going off the screen, 1 pleiades is usually killed, but at least you get to the boss-section with just 1 casualty...
