Simple but cute! I was surprised when it ended after the point goal. With a few parameters to get tougher as time goes on and maybe a limitation on how many shots you can have on the screen at any one time I think it could be quite fun to try to get a high score!
Thank you so much for taking the time to review the game and provide your feedback. I made lots of changes, including limiting the number of shots on the screen and adding a boss fight. Hope you enjoy!
