I love the sound effects, and the graphics were good.
Whole game felt very responsive and good to play, well done!
(My best score was a low 420)
can't believe i only got 420. Not bad for the time. Nice graphics
Really nice game. I like the enemy move variety, the visual and sound effects. However sometimes it doesn't allow me to write down the nickname for leaderboard.
great game! it's a lot of fun and the visual effects look awesome.
And the effect at the start of the game is just epic :)
Berbecarul: hehe if you click R at any time while entering your name, the game restarts :)
Well done. Cool game.
Like the art. Shooting feels a little too slow.

Bloody 'ell! That's what I get for not having an 'R' in my name. Fixed!

Nice game - I love the sound effects :D
Those green things are evil! It makes the game a bit different from traditional R-type style games, which is cool.
I got 990 in my best attempt.
