I’ve been reading your comments, and I’ve made the following changes: Enemies no longer shoot from off screen, you get knocked back less and recover faster from hitting enemies, Nothing To Live For requires you to die in 10s, up from 6s, you can use Q and E to dash left and right, respectively, S (with down) dashes in whatever direction you are facing, autofire is now toggled with F, enemy bullets are destroyed when they hit you, and the damage you take from enemies goes up much slower. Let me know what you think

you should add power ups like attract all diamonds, invincible, super speed, stronger gun for a little etc.You probably wont see this but still

A couple of years ago we were renovating our kitchen, and as a result, the internet was down for a few weeks. I figured I'd make a game of my own to play in that time. This game reminds me of that game - not flashy or clever, but really fun. Solid. Love this.

i beat it in 30 mins.... found it to be fun anyways... 3/5, cause it needs a check point system with purchasable points that only work after youve made it to 1000 feet. < it make more sence that way you cant "cheat" you way to the top. also... i cant seem to find the top scores for the game, ited be nice to have one of those as well. still good, still original, still very likable.

I GOT IT. I GOOOOOTTTTT ITTTTTTTTTTTTTT. If I have any advice for others who are attempting this remarkably challenging (but satisfying) hard badge, it's to never give up even when it looks hopeless e.g. you have four hearts left at 300 meters. Much of the game's difficulty comes from a couple of particularly difficult random "level" generations, and you can go from 300 to 1000 with only a hit or two if you get lucky. Also, I really found it easier to concentrate without worrying about the mouse at all - it's not like you have time to aim at anything. Good luck.

Very difficult but fun. The hard badge is definitely one of the more challenging to get on this site. The game demands so much of my hands that wrist pain is a serious obstacle after 600 meters or so, and I eventually made better progress by pressing F and ignoring the mouse altogether. Very fun, but not for the easily frustrated or those with weak wrists.

I should be able to buy "Start at XXX feet" once I've gotten all the other upgrades. the first section gets tedious when going for 1000.

My highest height was about 300... Then I randomly managed to get 941 with only 21 upgrades... Very fun games, this and the sequel both. I like the sequel more of course, but this is very impressive and fun for the time frame it was developed in!

Charactor:HELP! I'VE FALLEN AND I CAN'T GET UP!
Dispatch: YOU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN LIFE ALERT!
Charactor: I'm in a hole, what good would that do?
Dispatch: HOW IS YOUR CELLPHONE WORKING WHEN YOU'RE IN A HOLE!
Charactor: I DON'T KNOW

Good game, 4/5... Would be 5/5 if you added maybe more skills, temporary power-ups, a way to upgrade skills WITHOUT dieing, multi-player, ETC?

Had a lot of fun playing this game last night, but here Im on break at work and it didn't save any progress. That sucks, I just assumed its standard now-a-days. Otherwise, cool game.
