Space Knockback Shooter

Share Collapse

Author Comments

Get into your spaceship fighter and destroy those meteors. Earn coins by doing it and unlock even more spaceships you can enjoy! But... you can only move with the knockback of your shots.

Really well made and alot of fun :)

It's an interesting concept and sufficiently original one,
But I assume this is supposed to be a very accessible game (casual)
because of it's simplicity? If so, it is too punishing.
The game would also be better with a few changes I'll mention now.
However, keep in mind that you don't have to listen to my feedback.
It is your vision and world, and if you feel my advice harms that, then ignore me.

- Add a number of lives instead of instant death
- Put in some few HP-spawners across the map that will infrequently send out hearts
- Make the goal of the game to collect X number of score to progress/finish
- Don't make destroyed meteors re-spawn. I've died twice from crashing into them
- Finally, if you got the budget and energy for it: change the entire setting of the game.
It doesn't make sense to pilot a spaceship that suffers from recoil and knockbacks.
My advice is to change the setting and characters to something that supports your concept

Best of luck!

I'm very gratefull for your feedback. This is my first game and even tho it is simple, I still spent 6 months working on it. I wanted to have that kind of things too but i was losing interest because of the time it took and it was still so simple. I just wanted to finally publish it, as my previous projects never got released trying to make them perfect. But i am happy to see someone looking at my game with eye of a critic. It helps me know whats better and whats not. Unfortunately, i won't be updating this game as i started working on other game, but again, im grateful for your feedback.
