There's a lot going on in this game, what with the powerups and the map switching, and that's great! I'd have liked it if the enemies were a little easier to kill, but that's just me.
The familiar is super useful btw.
I liked the visuals and the audio, but the game was a bit too difficult for me. Maybe it is just me (still sleepy after finishing own entry) but I can barely survive until I'm able to switch map.
Nice crisp graphics, sound and great music. Feels very polished. Got that crunchy arcade game feel.
Fantastic entry with solid gameplay and energetic music. I really want to check more power-ups but it's too hard.
I love me a good shmup and for 48h this is really impressive! Great graphics and energetic sound. The map switching mechanic is the icing on the cake.
very good, i love shooting game, played so much.
it's hard to believe that you do all those thing in just 48h, great work!
only problem is that it has some frame drop on my computer with e3 + gtx970...
Fantastic. This is a bang on shmup. Really excellent. Great art and gameplay.
Cool and fun game that have lovely graphics! A lot more fun than the normal procedural space shooters IMO. Thanks for the game, good luck and Merry Christmas!
This game was awesome, i really like the scrolling plane type shooters, and you sir had done well, i also really like the switching maps mechanic :)
LOVE the art ! :) funny game ! Also check my project if you have some time mate x)
Good job on your compo entry, we can see a lot of work went into it and the map switching is a nice feature.
Player movement should probably have been constrained to the screen though. It's possible to dash directly to the boss at the start of the game, though it's not really useful.
@K.Chplr: Haha, didn't think about that!
@TeamEagle: Sorry. Löve does not seem to be supported for yosemite at this time. Or maybe I'm bundling wrong, sorry!
Wow this is awesome!! Graphics and music are stellar. Controls are pretty good though the movement feels pretty slow relative to how big your hitbox is, so that makes it a bit hard. My only suggestion would be to have the A/B and switching mechanics explained more ingame, it took me a while to figure out what my strategy should be. Awesome work!
Very nice mechanic with the maps and great controls!Visuals are cool too!
Awesome graphics. Takes me back to Skyshark. Can't ever get enough shooters like this. You certainly aren't pulling your punches with the difficulty either =3
Ouch. You hit my nostalgia hard. This looked and felt great, wonderfully executed. :D

You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work.

PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate about 20 games to improve your visibility.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crash or win condition bugs after the deadline (in a sense, like “porting” to support more players). We also allow “typo” bugs. I.e. A true that should have been a false, a word that should have been a different word, very tiny changes that you would have caught if you had more sleep. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just things you messed up last minute. Typos.
Fun fun fun. Love shmups. Takeof on the compo theme almost similar to my game (rescue to the princess) although mine is a platformer. Good good one!
