Hello, I am looking for feedback for my latest game - Galaxystrife.

Play here: http://galaxystrife.com/

Galaxystrife is an online multiplayer game, playable in the web browser. Registration is not needed. Just jump into the game. There are currently only two servers (Europe and North America). Not much players are playing, but servers are always populated with bots. I am mostly interested in your first ipmression, as players are not hesitant to close web games after few seconds. I would like to know what you think about game balance. Is game too hard? Are you discouraged by dying too often or sniper rifle is unfair? Let me know.

Controls are very simple. Just use the mouse to move. The ship will follow the cursor. Press left mouse button to shoot, right mouse button to use special ability. Put cursor inside the circle around your ship to move slower and make sharper turns.

Hey dvyskoc,

I played your game and made a recording:





- The gameplay is near perfect.  I really like how turn speed is affected by ship speed.  Combat felt frantic, but not out of control.

- The powerups were interesting and fun

- My only criticisms are things I would like to see added.
   - Music and SFX
   - Maybe some obstacles or anomalies that affect gravity
   
Awesome job.  I had a lot of fun.

You are not first to point out there are not sounds. I might add them later.

When it comes to obstacles, I didn't want to add classic asteroids, as I don't think it would add much value to gameplay. I'm still considering adding obstacles though. It might come later.

Speaking of gravity anomalies, I am toying with an idea of a black hole in the center of the map, but I am very careful with adding new gameplay elements.

I have more interesting ideas, but I wanted to release the game with simple gameplay and possibly release more features later.

Thanks for your feedback.

Found no problems with the game.

Only suggestion would be sound, then it would be awesome! Smiley

I liked the turning and following the cursor was great, and generally found it fun to play.

HTHs, Rob.
