Reviews for "Star Blazer"

Not working

The game gives you no explenation regarding controls or obejctive, it's also way too fast-paced and hard. I keep asking myself, "Why am I getting 1 shotted from enemies I can't even see yet", which is clearly not something you would want the people playing to be asking themselves.

Weirdest keybind ever, using shift for things like that.
The legitness is killing me. Too legit. Amusing parody of everything gives you a bit though.

It's okay, but it's got some serious problems. For starters, there are no proper control instructions when starting the game. It took me forever to find out that right shift acts as the confirm/shoot key. Also, right shift!? That's hardly ever used in a regular keybind setup! Also, the ship controls like it's on a pair of defective ice skates; at times, the movement response is seconds behind me actually pressing the button, and sometimes won't even move at all! And the hit detection on enemies is atrocious; at times, even when my shots go directly at an enemy, they're more than likely to GO THROUGH it than to hit it! Spice in some pretty sloppy Engrish that would make Fawful weep tears of joy, and it really leaves me on the fence about the overall quality of the game. On the one hand, I can see you worked hard on the visuals, but on the other, it controls horribly! I would definitely suggest you try again with this one, because if the control issue addressed were fixed? I would certainly enjoy this game.

I finally got this game started by pressing the shift key.

The shift key works effectively as the start button.

The controls for moving the ship had no problems.

The arrow keys are effective for moving the ship.

The actual shooting also uses the shift keys; However, pressing shift too many times will activate sticky keys.

The game is kinda cool but the poor choose of button for shooting will activate sticky keys.

This kinda renders your game as unplayable.

I look forward to your other possible games with improved controls.

Better luck, next time.
