Simple & quiet fun
I can spot a flaw as much as the next guy but this game is pretty good...

Great game, but has one flaw.
I do love the concepts for this game. The upgrades are cool, the bullets are crazy everywhere, and it's one addicting game. But I'm really frustrated whenever i try to move my ship near the edge of the screen, because too often I end up losing control because my mouse is no longer on the screen. Well at first I just decided to ignore this issue and try hard not to move my ship too far to the edges, that is until i discovered a lil trick. By moving the mouse outside the screen and then moving it back to the flash screen from a different side, the ship just teleports to where my mouse is, allowing me to just avoid death traps by moving to the other side of the screen whenever i see fit. I can also do this using right click, allowing my mouse not to interact with the screen for a while, and then just left click somewhere else. I'm pretty sure this hack-like teleporting upgrade was unintentional, and I'm also sure it's probably not a simple fix, but do try because the game is too easily broken as it is.
too easy
i went for the path below, at first, its easy because its the beginning, then you get the side pods who can protect you from everything and then shoots, lastly, there is a boss who fires blue shots in spiral and red dots in a burst, HE IS TOO EASY TO GRAZE, you just have to stay still somewhere in the lower-left quarter,seriously, i got fucking 42 lives when i faced him again at the last lvl.
that aside, it's well made game with a original concept.
Basic, but fun.
Great game, loved the graphics, and the last few levels kept you on your toes.
Smooth.
I love certain pixel games that are smooth in game play. The different paths for power ups made the game fun plus the amount of bullets that you have to doge makes it intense and challenging.
