You gain back a very small amount of health, SkorMz. It's about 10% per sector.

OK, nice shooter (granted I love shooters), but I though a Shield would PROTECT you from enemy damage, not just take the hit to boost the ability to use an EMP. Kinda odd in my opinion, but definitely different. And being different is what is good about this game, Granted like many shooters, there needs to be a X factor that stands out from the rest. This has a q? factor that makes it different, but not excellent. If you can do this, I am sure you can do MUCH better. Users like upgrades and such in shooters. Hell, they like upgrades in any game and even created a new genre about upgrades. I feel if you added such a system to this game it would be great. As it stands, a bit better than your typical shooter. Of course this is my opinion and is meant to be constructive, so please take no offense. Good work, but from the games you have made in the past, you CAN do much better. Still love your work and please keep on giving us new games to enjoy.

It has a very nice, agreeable retro style to it, and the controls are smooth. Nice job.

You gain health after the end of every sector.

@tonberry - Though 3 years have passed, and you'll probably never read this - That's EMP, not EXP. Charge your EMP by touching bullets while your shield is up.
