I agree with the others on some aspects
I understand that this was a school project and everything, but I'll still review it like a regular submission.
~ Animation/Graphics ~
I loved the moving background here and really enjoyed all of the art work. I didn't really see anything as simple and thought the entire thing was visually pleasing to the eye.
I did see one thing that stood out though. When moving left or right your ship slowly tilted, which looked great, but when you stopped moving the ship instantly went back straight. This should also be a slow movement as well.
~ Story/Content ~
Hm, there weren't any enemies so I don't see where the reviewer was getting at below us. But collecting space junk is a nice change of pace from the regular shoot the enemy space shooter that we tend to see. Maybe adding different space junk and maybe an enemy every now and then would have made this game a little bit more interesting though. That would make things a bit complicated as you don't actually have a gun on the ship as the laser looking thing is only a tractor beam.
The game does actually get challenging later on. I feel if you could move diagonal that the game would be way too easy. Even though it's odd not being able to move in that direction, it does add to the challenge. The only odd thing was when you got hit because all of the space junk reset over to the top of the screen.
~ Audio ~
A nice ambient background song would have really helped this submission out along with the tractor beam sound effects as well. The explosion noises sounded great though.
~ Overall ~
It's very simple and there are only a few odds and ends that need fixed up in my opinion. Some sound effects and music are the biggest flaws in my eyes.
