All the music and soundscapes in this game are by Kevin MacLeod and they might appear in other games as well. Glad you enjoyed the game :)

I love the storyline, make a earth taken 2

SeethingSwarm responds:

Thanks! I'm already working on Earth Taken 2 :)
Keep a look out for it in February!

Overall it looks like a good game with parts which can be improved.

I have no problem with movement on arrow keys and there are just few things which bothered me about controls. The first is that it's not possible to shoot diagonaly without moving at the same time and S drops you from ladder, which is ok, but I would expect that my character jumps from it.

Level design could be less linear... The whole game would be better, if it was less linear. It's always go from A to B and the only change in this are occasional secret areas. I have expected a bit more from a game with such nice survival aspects as use of gas filters and food used as money and health kits.
The enemies are totally stupid, because of that, majority of the game was too easy. Then the final Boss came and it was suddendly much much harder. It's beatable, even through constant spam of enemies (still their death explosions were more dangerous than enemies themselves), but I didn't like the fact, you are forced to restart at the beggining of the level.

I didn't used the flamethrower, but pistol, smg and shotgun are practically the same thing. The only difference is how much time it takes them to shoot down an enemy, which is stunned by shooting anyway.

Artwork may seem simple and unfinished but it fits to surroundings in the game.
The same applies to soundtrack.

SeethingSwarm responds:

Thanks for all the comments and the nice score! I'll keep your suggestions in mind for the sequel! :)

Ambient and consistently exciting.

SeethingSwarm responds:

Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the game and thanks for the 5 stars! Keep a look out for Earth Taken 2 ;)
