- Obligation, on 10/12/2007, -1/+80Yeah, but it gets kind of annoying when you can't tell where you are or where you're shooting.
- arcooke, on 10/12/2007, -2/+50Problem: My keyboard is different from 99.99995% of the world.
Solution: Buy a normal keyboard. - kooblakhan, on 10/12/2007, -3/+40You guys need to get out more. Where I come from, this is call Asteroids...
- spect3r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+30Yeah the cursor should be bright red or something. It blends in too well...
- greenlight2001, on 10/12/2007, -2/+29I had no frigging clue I could move around! I'm an idiot! This makes it a lot better.... I have to admit, I was still kicking some ass not moving around.
- jmtb02, on 10/12/2007, -2/+28You can use the arrow keys to control the ship too.
- ThinkRad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1831 Pieces of flair!!
- Jotaro, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13sorry, I can't digg this. Sure it looks nice, but it graphics often get in the way of the gameplay. When you kill an enemy, it debris often obscures other similarly colored enemies and their bullets, and on lighter backgrounds the aiming cursor is almost invisible.
- SkepticJoker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Not NEARLY as much "flair" as Geometry Wars, but fun nevertheless.
- CybrStuff, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11My spoon is too big.
- bergur1, on 10/12/2007, -5/+12This game sucks compared to the other geometry war clones. FLAIR? Puhleeehse. All the colors do is hurt my eyes.
- TheIneffableBob, on 10/12/2007, -4/+11I am a canteloupe.
- jcapogna, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Can't you just go into your OS settings and set the keymappings to QWERTY? Then your 'A' key will become the 'Q' key.
- peaches017, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6It's hard to distinguish an enemy from pieces of a fallen enemy.
- webcrumb, on 11/03/2007, -0/+5This reminds me of GunRoar*. Except less visible. I hate the way you can get telefragged at the start of a new level.
*ABA Games. Brilliant freeware games. Look them up. - blakespot, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4GeometryWars owns this game.
- evil-doer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3i agree, it doesnt come close to geometry wars. not by a longshot. plus i easily beat the game first try. pretty *****.
- agentVivid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Uh, when you say "next door", do you mean Chili's or Flingers?
- sevs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3What is so bad about creating a Flash game that you can turn the sound off on? What the hell?
- CapeKid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The seizures this game induced really added to the gameplay. It is tough to control a ship when you can't even control your muscles.
- oddmanout, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3looks cool, but holy crap this is hard on a laptop
- AreTooDeTo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2You are comparing it to geometry wars saying it is similar "with a bit of flair"? have you not played geometry wars, you can't get much more flair than that.
- TheBigBen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Beat this on my second try.
#70 with 500 odd thousand points.
It turns out you can just hold down your mouse button instead of having to click every time you want to shoot.
I give it a 6/10 it's fun, but the colors make everything blend and I couldn't find my shooter thing that I was supposed to be aiming with. - jay0312, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Did anyone catch that braveheart tune when you beat the game...
oh man, some of horner's best work right there - ran24, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Other than the fact that 80% of my deaths came from enemies phasing in during level transitions, good game.
- darkein, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2While it is visually pleasing, Controls are a bit tough.
The game play is not of the caliber of geometry wars or grid wars. - bairy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2If you right click the game (then left click to cancel the menu) the normal window cursor stays making it easier to see where you're aiming.
- FishRHuman2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Geometry wars already has flair.
- vietrvtec, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4http://www.dailyarcade.net/swf/luminara.swf for full screen mode with no annoying ads.
- Schmope, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1A nice game, quite addicting. Just in the middle of playing it right now :).
- drexy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Those enemies could really use some more braincells, got to level 48 on my first attempt without ever moving the spaceship
- checkmate987, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1this kinda reminds me of the book flatland
- zzz@tkz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I got 409,455, first try, beat the game with 2 lives to spare.
#81 on the list. - Render, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Slow game is slow.
- GeneralGore, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I got 470,000 and got to level 50 on my first try. It isn't that challenging but it's fun.
- sleepypenguin45, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1There is a pause screen that you can get to by pressing 'p' which has the audio controls in it (including "silence")... or you could just turn off the sound on your speakers.
- whinub, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1my eyes burn so good
- oddmanout, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i worked with this guy from france that had a keyboard like that... holy crap it was weird typing on that thng
- Spo8, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Hmm, too hard to keep track of your guy when the camera isn't tied to him and he's so damn small.
- jedi851508, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Currently #54 on the list with 502,765. :)
- MackPrime, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i recommend Veck or Grid wars, for your PC GW fix.
- gheide, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1420596 first try without moving... got the Clear! after finishing level 50... my mouse button is about dead, though...
- vil33, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1lvl 40 with 254000 points on a laptop.
- Jabjabs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Not bad at all, that said my good old 1.2%Ghz G4 ain't up to playing this anything above a frame rate of 3, still fun though just processor intensive.
- impedance101, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Nice music
- Slrarp, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1that game swons
- BjayOne, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Both of those are great but none of these Geometry Wars "clones" compare to Echoes imho.
http://www.binaryzoo.com/games/echoes/index.htm - jjcechva, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2great concept, ***** implementation. i
- dan7546, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1yeah i am the 100th highest score aroura
- darkein, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Not as good as gridwars.
