Very nice game! I came here expecting a simple shooter/bullet hell with not much going for it, and instead got a game with satisfying upgrades, many different difficulties and modes, and alternate endings. I felt pretty satisfied when I got the secret ending. xD Very nicely done. 5/5 from me!

I think you should change the first few waves. If you go for the secret ending you actually get shooting drones BEFORE the alternatve route takes hold. If those guys start firing before me thats NOT friendly.

I think I've fixed the issue with the game pausing and you being unable to unpause it. Please let me know if you continue to see it happening (make sure to force refresh to get the latest version). Special thanks to Zoen for helping track down the issue!

Okay after you activate the secret mode, you can shoot, what you will be shooting is warp cannon shots that transport them to another sector.

Am I the only one who just gave up on secret mode on story+ mode? (first off, you need to not kill them for longer ;)) I might just suck at this though, although I did complete the old bullet-hells back in the days those game were actually uploaded to Kong, nice to see this here! :D

Might I recommend a lategame usage for metal, like a "Heal" ability, that would also help me finish some of the storymodes or other challenges simply by throwing metal at it. You don't have to if there is no end-content after completing story mode and secret story mode.

Seems quite nice, the difficulty is rather steep from the get-go, and I don't always like starting with all the tools at hand, sides you could have added more, like ability to teleport in the combat field, a mod that might blast down incoming shots, and other ideas could be used too, it does have potential, but then again, you seemingly only wanted to spend 48 hours on it ^_^.

You really should have had the textbar be bigger... I don't like sentences be broken up in 2 chat bubbles. Seems like a rather good game.

first mission seems a bitt too intense... like there are no learning curve for those who need it. You're just swarmed with tons of different enemies with no health bars or any info.

The fact that the enemies were friendly wasn't much of a surprise, but the fact that they were human and we were not was a nice bonus :) I'm trying to finish the Story++ mode right now, could use some more powerful upgrades... I'd also like to be able to upgrade the wormhole cannon once it is enabled in the secret mode. Overall good game, and great for a 48hour challenge :)

Switched onto another program while on upgrade screen (word in my case) and it did the "double pause" thing and froze.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I've gotten an issue twice now where the game will "double pause". The only way to be able to resume playing the game is to refresh the entire page. First was during the text after defeating the boss, and the second was just now in the middle of gameplay. About all the information I can give on it.

This is a good game. Well constructed, well polished, and has decent replay value. Especially for 48 hours worth of work. The story is good too, although repetitive. Shrapnel mode is unrealistically hard, and there should be a way to skip all the dialogue at once. But good effort.

This game is stupid. I didn't shoot a single bullet on my first try, but after they killed me, ofcource I would retaliate.

Let all game developers know: we hate running around collecting coins. We like to play, not to work as a waste collector. Thanks

Make the magnet collect everything on screen when fully maxed at least. Im sick and tired of loosing currency because I dont get them fast enough.

Awesome game!! Can lead into sequel where you help humanity reclaim Earth. Or prequel where you are the human battleship fighting to protect Earth before you have no choice but to leave. Or BOTH!!

Really nice game for being made in 48 hours. The only thing that got on my nerves a bit was that my ship did not always move as enacted within the controls. Sometimes it would freak out by shaking uncontrollably and movements were delayed causing crashing into stuff and dieing. Other than that great game and great story.

Wow .Not only are you stuck wth shrapnel in that mode but you only haveone hitpoint? you sire hae Given me a challenge

Great game, even the story: And there isn't normally any in bullet hell games. I especially liked the twist in "secret mode", but I only knew about it after reading the comments. Maybe add a hint after one has completed the game once?

Bug: if you get click outside the screen at the end conversation it pauses and you can continue because it locks you out.

Very nicely done. You have a genuine talent at this, and to consider that you did this all in 48 hours. There are full budget, major developer titles that have taken two years to make that I've played for less time than I've already put into this here. Good show, keep it up!

Kinda felt Claustrophobic at first, then i actually moved around enough to have the camera start moving to the edge of the actual arena and was like 'Wow, thats like... 4 times the space!' Then I got hooked on the gameplay... Then I payed attention to the story. And I got depressed by the ending. Then i got intrigued by the 'secret mode' medals and was like 'LIKE OH EM GEE, GAIS!' and so I sat there not moving or attacking... and died, then i didnt attack and moved around and BOOM NEW MODE. I was like 'OH EM GEE GAIS!' AND I FRAGGING LOVE YOUR GAME

ok how long does it take to kill the boss on + I was fighting him fully powered up for like 10 mins and still not dead.

Updated a few things based off your feedback. Thanks for helping find issues! Changes:
Fixed shrapnel mode appearing unlocked when it isn't.
Story+ and Story++ now drop more metal.
The timer on story mode now stops as soon as the boss dies.
Fixed achievement descriptions for secret mode achievements.

We mean you know harm, but just so you know, we're sending forth all our robots designed to kill everything in sight towards you. Just a heads up.

Is anyone else unabl to play shrapnel mode? ecaus ei beat the story and whenever i click shrapnel mode nothing appens
It's a bug that I hope to fix soon. You'll need to beat Story+ mode to activate shrapnel mode (it just looks like its been unlocked after beating story mode).

"Don't fire, they may be peaceful." "They're not ramming us, they're trying to give us nuclear-powered hugs." "Those are peace guns, firing depleted uranium floral arrangements. You know what, just open fire, I'm pretty sure they're trying to kill us."
