FlyBy 2- Classic Edition sends you flying back to those good old pixel art days. Also has a classic rock song. Just defeat the bee army and win (not as easy as it sounds).
Here's the Link
Please Review!!!

I like the shooting style here better than the other version. It's easier to see what's coming and it's easier to move around -- so that works better (for me, anyway).

But I'm not too fond of the pixelized graphics. These looked "authentic"... it's just that the retro / 8-bit style isn't my favorite. But the explosions were OK. And the sound effects were good too, but I couldn't hear any music. No "classic rock song" played. Maybe my sound card doesn't recognize the file type.

Also, sometimess my "bee" character disappeared and I had to mouse-click several times to get it back. Is that intentional, or a bug?

But overall, this is a pretty good shooter. +1

I like this version better than the 1st one...but the first one did have better graphics.

I'm glad FB 2 is full screen...unlike FB 1.

FB2 has better attack patterns...and is actually playable. In FB1 the enemies came straight down so fast it became luck more than skill to try and avoid them.
I wish FB2 had a mute button for the song...because i'd rather just hear the sound effects. I'd even prefer a more retro arcade type song than the one currently used.

Are there any power ups? The enemy fire may be too fast...and may be too hard to avoid.

Maybe a few background changes...day to night would be cool.

The night scene could include lightning bugs.
