Testimonials:

"Wow, you guys really did put a lot of effort into this game didn't you. The polish is extraordinary. The gameplay is so well balanced I can't imagine how many times you must have played it to get it right. Even the audio peaks and lows at the right times. Whoever invented the 'invincible during screen shake' is a genius. And you've used it to perfect effect, there always seem to be the right 'screen shaking alien' around at the right time to get out of jail. Some of the bullet patterns, especially the ones that cross over each other, are evil :p This game is an indie masterpiece. I hope you guys are proud of it." - Greenstone Games

"Apart from the obvious visual delight that is one of this game's strengths, I was struck by a couple more things. It's surprisingly very clean and uncluttered regards to identifying yourself in that sea of bullet hell. I'm not the greatest shooter, it must be said, but despite this I found that I was having a very satisfying time as the challenge seemed to be set beautifully." - Adrian

"Thank you SO MUCH for making one of the coolest, and most affordable games I've ever purchased or played! Score Rush is absolutely amazing, so addictive and so fun to play." - John Schuepbach

"I can't say enough how cool this game is. I've been playing games for nearly 35 years now, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that "Score Rush" is one of the coolest games I've EVER played!" - John Schuepbach

"A couple nights ago, I was playing Score Rush, a twin-stick shooter on Xbox, and thinking what an exemplary game it was. Simple, but with highly polished gameplay. Something that other designers and developers could stand to learn from." - Jay McGavren

"Score Rush is simply the best HTML5 game demo that I've ever seen." - William Dias

"Can't believe I missed this video! Thanks so much for taking the time to share all this info; great interview. If you guys never made or released another game ever, Score Rush would still go down in history as one of the coolest games I've ever played. Thank you guys for following your passion and for sharing it with the world!" - Shuey187

"You guys are fucking amazing. Score Rush is one of the best shooters I've ever played, it's the best XBLIA title period. I don't want to sound cliche, but the polish is incredible and you guys are super awesome for not making it an expensive XBLA title or something. I play me the hell out of some Score Rush. The part where I rush to get a score is my favorite." - Nelson Gatlin (full feedback here)
