Shooting Saucer

This game is incredibly charming. From the enemy variety through every level, to even the character play style variety through all the characters! Off the bat, the game is difficult, throwing you head first into a pursuit. Game overs are going to happen, at least they did for me... a lot... and I'm really good at platformer games I promise! But with each death came a revelation of how to play better. Everything through a level is consistent so it becomes a performance game, but without feeling like a memory contest. While there are some gotchas, it ends up being less frustrating and more knowledge. I don't think I'll ever get good enough to do a hit-less run, but the replay-ability is absolutely there with the variety in all the characters. I haven't unlocked the secret characters, but there's more than the starter three which is super exciting. Usually it's unfair comparing a video game to another one, but if you enjoy shooting platform action games like Pixel's Cave Story or Kero Blaster, or early Megaman titles, I think this is a guaranteed grab. If you're someone like me who enjoys more traditional platformers like Super Mario Bros/World, there's still a lot of fun in traversing the snappy, fast action of these levels. Ultimately, this game controls tight and responsibly, the sound effects are adorable and fun to repeat out loud and the art is adorable and squishy! Check it out! For 5 bucks you cannot beat it.

i absolutely love sink's pixelart style, and this doesn't disappoint! the platforming is really solid, too. i love when a game combines simple enemies to form interesting and surprising challenges.

Easy recommendation for this one. A fun and challenging little arcade-like game full of clever ideas. Give it a try!

super challenging, very cute visual style and a really unique game idea! lots of good variety between the different characters.

tasteful aesthetics, charming, nice music. simple and cheap. unfortunately, overly punishing, painfully short, inexplicably plagued by lag on one of just 4 stages, and poorly programmed. i could see the Kero Blaster influence so i gave it a fair shake, but it really needed a bit more work. oh well, its not the worst but it really irritated me more than it entertained me.

Fun and cute game by the Crowtel Renovations developer! Great introduction of mechanics within the level design and a gradual progression of each new mechanic as they are introduced in a satisfying way. Cute sprite work. Fun bosses! Excited to go back and try the game again with another character.

Fun retro platformer. Very difficult, but most of the time that's a good thing.
