Looks very nice, not something you can just jump into with out reading the controls . Tried that, didn't work out well. I like the graphics and intro was a nice touch. Putting the control keys close together was a plus too.
Make sure you put a link to your game in the youtube video description, some people will play through there.
I just did. Thanks for the idea
Yeah, I was afraid the game could be a bit weird. For example when I watch people playing it, they almost never use the shield even though it's crucial in the later levels. I thought, oh well that's my first game, it can't be perfect
First off, congrats. To even finish a game is an impressive feat, but yours appears quite impressive.
As to getting people to play it, thats the tricky part... These days, casual free games are in one of two places... Flash or iPhone/Android. I just don't know what you would do otherwise... maybe upload it to a shareware download service like download.com?
I'll try to do that.
I thought of porting the game to phones, but it would require a complete rewrite since the game is mostly pure Python, so I didn't bother.
