That should also prevents a player from starting with a supernova.
It kind of seems harder to go from lvl1 to lvl6 than from lvl6 to the end.
After quite some attempts I've made it to the end starting from lvl1. The final score did not match the recent score listed bottom left. Maybe due to a late bomb explosion.
It looks pretty nice but I don't understand how I'm supposed to play it with a controller. Left stick does both steering and accel/brake. If I use d-pad and A I'm drifting through the track.
Is the control analog? If so you could use lstick for steering only and the triggers for accel and brake.
It is not intuitive but it makes sense once you choose the primary weapon that drops bombs from the end of your tail. You need to be able to manoeuvre it between the enemies.
Alternatively you could make segments flash when they come in contact with enemies and start flashing red when they need a cool down before you lose the segment.
I noticed most of the games where I made it to the end I scored around 470k, one time I scored 894k but I can't remember what I did differently.
The game is fun, I like it. I think it's nice there's an ending although I haven't managed to clear it yet on Thorn difficulty. I did beat the butterfly boss so I assume I've been close. No bugs encountered yet. I plan to purchase it on Steam release.
Great game, challenging and addictive! I got stuck and frustrated twice but then the subsequent sessions I was able to pass those levels like it was nothing.
I noticed the game was updated through "More information" but the game didn't update through the Itchio launcher. So I tried to uninstall and reinstall but the launcher doesn't see anything to install. Is it just me?
I'm still kind of bad at it but I'm getting better, I've now managed to unlock level 3 :)
I noticed when you bubble a cat they can still kill you for a moment.
You could add a time bonus to each round to add a bit more replayability for good players, of course it should be less than a cheese bonus to keep that as priority for scoring.
Btw if you were to make it a paid game at Steam, cat games do well, please add online leaderboards :D
Great arcade fun! I'm having a hard time keeping track of my mouse and the cats because of the busy background. However I am enjoying the challenge and after many restarts I am now able to clear the first level :)
Fun little game but on the web version I seem to be occasionally firing a bomb without pressing the bomb button. I didn't have that before with the alpha but maybe I used another controller. The power ups are very hard to spot. Bad power ups are annoying. Auto-fire would be nice.
The game is neat! The update made it more fun but also a bit easier. Before I couldn't get passed the dragons yet and now I cleared it on my first run.
Really enjoyable turn around of the tutorial shmup. It took me quite a few runs to be able to read the enemies, their bullets and the boss attacks, but eventually I got the hang of it :)
How many levels are there in total? I've managed to reach lvl14 for now. I do kind of miss an auto-fire and a quick restart but I can manage without :)
