Deeper into Space

Description
Deeper into Space is a 2D space shooter with rogue-like elements.

I've been working on this for a LONG time, and it's at the point where people need to play it, before I develop it further. So, I'm posting it here in it's current state so you guys and gals can play it and perhaps give some feedback on how it runs/plays.

I'm keeping the game description vague because I want to see if people can figure out how to progress without any tutorial or such. Game controls are in the game.

features:
- Randomly generated levels
- Randomly generated planets
- Multiple weapons
- Increasing difficulty as game progresses
- Gamepad support

Any thoughts are much appreciated, so let me know what you think in the comments. Please bare in mind the game is meant to be tough, so please take that into account.

Thanks for the feedback Donnie Trumpberg, it's very encouraging and i'm glad you enjoyed it. As for the sounds, I see what you are saying. I've always had it in my mind that I would revisit them at some point. I kind of made them and said 'that will do for now', as other things were more important, and something was better than nothing. But to hear this feedback I know that new sounds is a must.

Could I ask how far people have progressed in the game? Best scores? FPS? Things like that.
Thanks enormously!

This is great! I really enjoy this type of game, and I think you've mostly nailed the asteroids-style flight mechanics. The low point of this is the sound. The white noise for the engine is alright, but the blasters are nails on a chalkboard. The sound is too sharp in its current form, and since I'm shooting most of the time, it becomes grating after a very short period of time.

Beyond that, I really enjoyed it, and with improved sound effects I would definitely buy this game if it was available on Steam. Have fun with the rest of the development process!

really cool

I've changed the elements on planets to be background elements, so getting stuck in corners etc should be a thing of the past. I've kept the control to reset the ship in there though, just in case.

@Gallium31 Thanks! The planets have a set size range that randomly gets chosen, which won't get any bigger. I do have plans to add different kinds of planets which will be more hostile. These will be more likely to generate the later into the game you get.

Are planets going get larger? or is there a nearing limit you are heading towards?
