(I had problems with fullscreen on 16:9 LCD. If you got too, use this. But I highly recommand to play this in fullscreen-mode.)

Introduce yourself first and you may get some feedback on this..

I really like tigsource and I really thought about introducing myself but my spirit of indygaming told me that it's better to create new games than to spend my time in forums. So I decided to just continue releasing games. Play them or not! Like them or not! Ban me if you find it necessary! I'm just not much into community-stuff.

Nice idea, but the hovering needs a larger area i think. Also instead of immediately losing, you could have some sort of "energy bar". After many replays, i managed to collect the massive amount of 3 ...things :-).

A few complaints.

1. Sometimes my "disturber" was hovering over the thing and it didn't disable it. It wasn't just my imagination because I spent 6 lives just testing it. Like Bad Sector said, maybe a bigger area for the barrier thing or an energy bar.

2. I couldn't turn off the music. Options -> Music and I clicked on it but it didn't do anything.

3. You're a jerk. It's the "indie community" for a reason. As you probably already know, your potential players are drastically reduced if you have such an isolationist attitude (at least that's how it appears).

The concept of the game was pretty cool though.

Nothing wrong with introducing yourself man, it will only take you a minute of your time to write a sentence or two about yourself, I think you'll find the people you meet, and the advice thrown around easily worth the price of admission.

Nobody asked you to marry the forum. One introductory post is all most of us care about and then you're free to post as much or as little as you want. Looks like you got some feedback anyway.

GREAT!
I introduced myself, it took me more than 3 hours and I'm not satisfied with it. THANK YOU!
(add a smily here if you don't see the irony)

I don't want to be unfriendly and I don't want to isolate but I use to only contribute to forums if I got something new to add that matters. I just can't believe that who I am matters to anyone.

wasn't intended to sound that agressive.

Now for the actual feedback:

I noticed the problem you mentioned. I don't want to add an energy bar, because I think that instant death is one of the things that keeps you motivated in this game and adds a lot to the arcade flair. I think the problem is that I only replaced the original cursor. Means: the game checks mouse_x and mouse_y at the position where the end of the cursor would be. Gonna change this. Thank you!

Fixed!
