I absolutely love the soundtrack! Some nice animation touches in there too, particularly the dying ghosts fading away. I found the random obstacle generation pretty challenging and it took me a while to get used to shooting accurately. Would really have liked for a way to restart within the game itself rather than having to refresh (or perhaps there is one and I didn't find it?).
My best score is 32889.
Definitely getting some NES vibes from this, very cool! The sprite animations are really fun for how simple they are, and the music is very fitting.
Game does not work on Firefox.
Unfortunatly, it uses `new OffscreenCanvas()` for sprites. It's syntax can be compiled down to a smaller footprint than `document.createElement('canvas')` and it's much more performant too. https://caniuse.com/#feat=offscreencanvas
Adding support for firefox and safari would require some effort. I'll see what I can do.
