Very nice game! Addictive!
Very fun game once you get the hang of it! I wasn't sure what the controls were at first, so maybe consider adding them to the page or the game itself.
I really liked the different kinds of enemies. They made the experience much more engaging. Also loved the art style and the way the ground ripples when the bombs go off.
I couldn't find the last 2 bits, but I made it to the leaderboard!
What a stylish game! The transitions are all super smooth (I especially love the square brackets surrounding the menu item I’m hovering over), and the online leaderboard is a super nice feature. I’m impressed that you got so much done in such a short amount of time (especially having a Quit button this time! 😛).
There were only 2 issues that I had with it.
to get it to run.
Great game absolutely loved it, great work chief, if there is one thing i'd change is the fact that you have to submit your score yourself instead of it automatically submitting it if the score of the name you entered is higher then the score that is currently stored but other then that 10/10.
the artstyle and music is really cool! (the music did scare me to death at first, but lets ignore that) Also, online leaderboard!
