Under rating threshold (show) How do you get the judgement call medal? It looks like the same as Gift of life but its not :\

Developer response from Arkeus

Oops, looks like all 3 say "Story++", the last 3 in that final column should be Story, Story+, and Story++ in that order.

Under rating threshold (show) It helps with the lag when you turn the quality to low; for some reason Shrapnel mode just doesn't want to work though.

Shrapnel mode is unlocked after beating story+ mode. There's a bug that makes it appear unlocked sooner though. I hope to get that fixed soon.

Under rating threshold (show) To unlock the secret mode, don't attack any enemies. After you've dodged the first few waves, it will be triggered automatically. You might want to beat the game first, though.

Under rating threshold (show) Updated with autofire (press F to toggle it), and fixed the issue that was causing the menu tooltips to not align with your mouse position correctly. Please let me know if you find other issues! And if anyone else has the issue where the game hangs when losing focus, please send me any info you can to help me track it down. Thanks for the feedback!

Under rating threshold (show) I'd like it better if it had an autofire option, but still a good bit of fun.

I'll try to get a key in to toggle autofire in an update tonight or tomorrow!

Under rating threshold (show) A few odd issues: your own bullets are nearly invisible, they could use some better coloration. For some reason my mouse did not correctly line up with the tooltips in the shop (the buttons worked fine though) although the location changed each time I opened the shop. Losing focus while in the shop hangs the game (!)

Developer response from Arkeus

I've found the tooltip issue and will upload a fix for that soon. I'm not able to reproduce the losing focus hanging the game, so if anyone has info on that, it'd held! As for bullets, I found that having them harder to see made it much less confusing and frustrating when trying not to die, but I can see your point.

Under rating threshold (show) The only suggestion I can think to make is make the space bar the upgrade menu. It would make it slightly easier to get into it. Great game and agreed, criminally low rating.

Under rating threshold (show) Forced inevitability made the twist on this game lame.

Under rating threshold (show) I think it would be interesting, by the way, if you could get a different ending if you let the messages decode without attacking.

Under rating threshold (show) This rating on this game is criminally low. Simple, fun game with a clever hook at the end.

Under rating threshold (show) In the upgrade menu, whenever I highlight the upgrades for the strike gun the game recognizes it as highlighting the ship upgrades.

Developer response from Arkeus

What browser, OS, and flash version are you using? And can you confirm if you are at 100% zoom level in your browser? I'm not able to reproduce this on any of my setups.

Under rating threshold (show) Brilliant. Some minor adjustments are required: Please inform the player that they keep their upgrades on death! I didn't know this at first, and spent ages dying in the first 10 seconds thinking that my ship was terrible. Despite this, the game is brilliant!

Under rating threshold (show) Great game, really fun, it keeps the same great art style that I love about your other games, and the upgrades seem to be perfect. It feels great to play, it controls nicely, and I'm already addicted!

Developer response from Arkeus

Oops. Strange how I've read that a million times and never noticed it was spelled wrong. Will get that fixed. As for the mouse problems, what OS/Browser/Flash version are you using? I'm not able to replicate the issue. (Edit: Also, you must use space in the dialog, I'll try to get that changed to be any key or click).
