im sorry pebonious...
agh, i'll remember this!
space aint big enough for the two of us. ill reclaim my record yet!
My new top score:
I was doing fine until "unscrupulously" and "vicechancellors" started rocking up.
I'm going to claim this as a world record for now, until someone posts a better score here.
Even though it's an alpha release, the game is in quite a good state already. It fulfils the three main pillars of the revered space typer shooter genre, which are: space, typing and shooting. I encountered no bugs.
The music slaps, visuals have a good retro vibe. I like how some of the opposing faction pilots try to throw my gunners off by creating formations of ships like "oh-suck-my-bum", I have no doubt tactics like these would be used in real interplanetary warfare.
Overall very good game, would play again.
Again I find myself coming here to engage in the ancient art of space typer shooting. Apparently it is only in the desolation of space that I can truly find peace.
As another piece of feedback, currently the game window is too big to fit my laptop screen (and I think most screens in general?), so I can't see the top of the window. Maybe you could decrease the height a bit?
Thank you so much for the comments and feedback!
I understand what you mean with the screen size of the game and it is true I didn't keep in mind that not everyone plays on a desktop with massive screens. I will try and upload a new version this weekend with a different resolution! :)
