Planetary Dwellers

Awesome entry! Short and sweet with minimal controls, thats how i like em :D

Thanks BluePin! I tried my best to make it playable with one hand actually but it just didn't feel as good. I'm so glad you liked it!

That feeling of impending doom, when your planet get's increasingly faster and closer to the surface! D:

Oh yeah, that feeling of spinning the drain haha good stuff. Thanks for playing elZach!

Good job! I liked the old-school arcadey graphics, and the game was simple to get a handle on. It wasn't clear to me at first that you'd eventually crash into the planet, and I was thinking there was no reason to reverse instead of just getting the next loop. Some on-screen indicator that you're getting closer to the planet/there's some limit would maybe add to that sense of urgency sooner.

hey oldpopscgee, that's actually some really good feedback. Maybe even just some counting down integer that represents distance would really help drive it home. I never even thought about it lol much appreciate, thank you for playing!

Fun! Like a weird inversion of Space Invaders :) It was nice to see that the various bits of gameplay each had some "balance" to it: the shooting and reversing both had energy bars, and of course overall there was a timer in the form of crashing into the planet. Even so, there were some points later on where spamming the shoot button was just clearly the best way to quickly start the level, since there is a high chance of hitting a dweller at random. It's a good game for score attacks, though maaaybe the rate at which the speed increases could be a little bit more gradual.

Hi Aurel300, sorry for the late reply.

I appreciate that kind words!

I definitely agree that the rate of speed increase is too fast. If I had a bit more time, like another day, I would've added some power ups and stuff.

Funny to hear you figured out the meta of guns blazing as soon as the round starts hahaha!

I thought I was cool until I saw some of these other scores.
