One more thing,
in the demo the spaceship seems to only move up and down. it does move sideways, right?

Hello Matt,
I might as well add I find your new concept rather confusing. Nevertheless I’m a big BIG Shoot’em Up fan and your game looks great. Is it possible to also play it the normal ordinary way of progress-forward-shoot-n-blow-up? :)

Best of luck to you guys!

Correction for Above – Wondering when PS3 demo will be out. (I know there’s a PC demo)
Sorry for double post.

Is it going to be a rhythm game?

So, could you allow user to generate their own path, and then, sharing it with other players ? (like the Echochrome system)

Honnestly, this kind of option would be amazing !
But I know it’s that easy to do.

Good luck for this game, which one is going to be very great I’m sure !

In other words, the HUD looks a bit bland and cluttered. With a game like this where your eyes are quickly bouncing up and down, it seems only natural to display any necessary score/health information at the bottom and top of the screen, with bigger, easier to read displays.

This looks really interesting and will definitely pick this up when it’s ready. One thing though…that HUD in the top left corner just doesn’t seem to fit the actual game stylistically. Ever worse, it looks difficult to quickly glance over and get the information you may need. Hopefully that piece is still a work in progress! ;) Anyway, game looks great and thanks for taking the time to talk with us.
