This game is pretty awesome! One thing I would suggest is having more of a difficulty curve, as it doesn't really seem to get much harder. I was able to get near 100,000 due to this.

Hi, thanks for your review! Indeed the difficulty doesn't change at all^^ It was just a simple project, but I could do more in the future (difficulty, better integration whether it's here or on other websites), I'm currently working on other stuff but the development isn't over yet!
Solid 2D-inspired space shooter. The control is fluent, and it's fun to shoot things in space. The music's also neat and it's serviceable for what it's trying to accomplish. It's decent and I have no issues with it. It's fun and ultimately that's all that an outer space shooting game needs to be.

Hi, thanks for your review! Yes, the aim of the project was just to see what I could do with GameMaker and some stuff I found online, I took Asteroids as a reference and tried to improve on that. It was also important for me to add some multiplayer in it, because as we say, the more the merrier!
