Interesting idea to have the player collect stuff. I was mostly avoiding shooting because of that, but in some situations I had to shoot to avoid being killed myself. That created some interesting tension. I like this!
Towards the end of Level 2 and 3 you do get forced into a more 'proactive stance' on Vogon presence in the system! In practice, I found that if I hugged one side or the other and blasted through the red Vogons, I'd mostly come through okay... once they multiply, the reds get quite tricky to handle!
Thanks - good point on the petunias - that might be a change for V2. Button mashing isn't my fave so I like the idea that you have to be selective about your firepower... mostly! Hope your game is coming together well - let me know when it's out...

Interesting idea to be mindful of what you shoot. Was a bit too hard for my taste though.
Nice entry! Very fun to play!
Interesting mechanics of collecting stuff. But you have to be careful to not destroy the items while shooting down the enemies.
Congrats!

very fun and cute=)
Thats awesome - great music to go along with it also.
But why not petunias on L2 with the Whale? "Oh no not again"? 8)
-- also awesome that you put a reason to not press fire all the time. That was one I've been thinking about.
