Really interesting concept, but it didn't work for me. The levels got asininely hard quickly and it got super boring even faster. 3/5 for ingenuity.

The "strategy to fly around the map on the edges", approximately, worked for about 19.5 levels, taking much less than an hour. Then I got so much lag that I couldn't move for most of the remaining waves and died probably at the last wave.

Unbeatable strategy is to fly around the map on the edges wasdwasdwasdwasdwasdwasdwasdwasdwasdwasdwasdwasd. You only ever get hit maybe once per level if that. Refill your health when needed and you'll get the high score in... A few hours. Yeah I don't have that patience. The game is too easy in my opinion. Maybe make it like asteroids, so you can go through one side of the map to the other, and the bullets can do the same. That'd add more difficulty and make my 100% guaranteed strategy no longer work.

I stopped trying to actually kill the enemy, and started imagining my ship trying to circle them with an imaginary rope. So all I did was keep forming a perimeter and circling them (while staying closer to the edges). Worked like a charm on lvl 20!

this is just a retarded rng based ripoff from geometry wars.
its totally luck when the bullet is firing and if its killing your streak or not. period.
@kerox, U DONT SAY its not lie people with bain realize that in the first level

@GameTommy "If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball..." If you don't know what movie that's from, then I don't know what to tell ya, bro, lol.

Wow, Dodge! Still remember how much I played this game when it was released, going to play it again now and I know it will be for a few hours at least, love it.

If all of these enemies are remotely controlled, too, I can see the after-mission meeting with those pilots. "YOU GUYS HAD ONE JOB!!! ONE! JOB!!! DO YOU KNOW HOW EXPENSIVE THOSE SHIPS ARE?!!"

I really like how the BG always ends up being coated with the colourful pieces and remains of our fallen enemies at the end of each level.

No clue whats wrong with my game, my ship sometimes doesnt turn and it flies in one direction sometimes. Very annoying.

By the 10th level it gets really hard to SEE all of the missiles headed towards you, let alone TRACK them all, let alone DODGE them all! By the 15th level it is actually impossible to see and purposely dodge all of the missiles. By the 20th level the only viable strategies are to either A) Go in a circle around the map or B) Have a computer play the game for you. I am all for the changes you made, but don't call out the player base for "exploiting" something that is basically one of the only ways to beat your game. It's like if someone told you to try beating an FPS without reloading, sure you COULD reload and make it easier for yourself, but there are other guns that you could pick up and use instead...

The game got really easy when I realized that the bullets gets destroyed when they hit the walls. Just go around the arena hugging the walls and even the hard badge turns easy, got it on lvl 17 and few more >100 combos after that too xD

me: *reading game news* Added a restart button, press R in-game for easier badge-getting. "oooh! i can restart the level!" *tries pressing R* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA WHY GOD?WHY

I still feel that this game would benefit greatly from the addition of an actual boss fight.
ALSO, PROTIP: If you avoid getting hit from the start of the game, you can earn the hard badge (100x combo) by the end of level 8. Probably easier to do it that way than to try it on the later levels, although not quite as impressive.
