Awesome game.
Not really my thing though. On hard mode, I got 119458, and my arm really hurts now. Beware, that Level 9 there is a huge jump in difficulty.
The level just lasts forever.

Heheh, yeah, I haven't actually finished the game on Hard yet. And yeah, the levels are long.. but it all means more scoring opportunities... Sorry about your arm, here, have an e-icepack...
Exellent
A very cool game. Challenging and it's pretty long which is good. My only suggestion for any other games you make is to put a mute button on the sound. Of course if there already is a mute button and I just missed it pretend I said something deep and related to the game or Flash.
Denvish responds:
Well, not a mute button as such, but if you click on the far left of the (orange) volume bar, that'll drop the volume to 0, which I guess is the same thing. Mucho thankos for teh review.
Well-balanced sit-and-spin shmup.
Graphics: Some of the busier backgrounds make spotting distant targets difficult at first, but once the creeps get close, it's certainly not a problem to see their clean, simple lines as they close in for the kill. Color-coding the radar pips was an excellent idea, letting the player know whether to aim for the skies or the horizon.
Style: Good retro arcade look and feel. Fair match of firepower to
opposition. Making Shockwave and Smart Bomb worth fewer points encourages actual aiming and shooting, but it's nice to have an out if the crush of creeps presses in too closely! Crediting the loop authors at the start of each level was a very nice touch as well.
Sound: Repetitive electronica works well enough for a shooter like this. The death sounds were appropriate (loved the bird squawk) and the gun, Shockwave, and Smart Bomb sounded nicely blasty.
Violence: Good clean Blowing Stuff Up type of violence, with no unneccesary gore. Bring your kids!
Interactivity: Crisp controls are a plus in a frenetic shmup, and this game has 'em.
Humor: The death animations for the birds and flying saucers were amusing.
Overall: Good, clean way to get a BSU Fix, and with the save feature, you don't have to do a game all at once. Nice work on all accounts!
Problem: I completed the game on Hard mode (yes, that's my score currently in 2nd place) and wasn't able to access Crazy mode afterwards. Bummer.
Denvish responds:
Amazing review, thanks for that. And I'm really sorry that Crazy didn't unlock, try reloading the game, since it should save the unlockedness to savefile and apply it on reload.
ROCKS
dude this is awsome dude make another.';.;'
WOW
What an excellent submission! It could sure get a bit tiring after awhile, but a lot of detail and very hard work clearly went into the making of that game. I commend you, it's a lot better than most of the crud that's been making front page these days. Keep up the awesome work!
