This is definitely simple and fun, and I really enjoyed it (even though my mouse is broken and I had to use my trackpad, it didn't feel that much more difficult which is a good thing.) For just a jam game, it's surprisingly deep in strategy - pushing rocks, lining up friendly fire, etc. More importantly, great job limiting what you wanted to do - I could easily see how you could get distracted making things customizable (speed, size of the flame, etc.) and lose track of the scope. Having said that, if you wanted to build that out in the future you have a solid foundation to keep going.

I wish there was some light music, although that's usually something a lot of games are missing. A parallax starfield would be cool but what you have works. Great job!

Love it. Simple and fun and it fits the theme

if you made these sound effects it's very impressive. I was surprised that the laser beam ships can friendly fire lol. Honestly, the most visually impressive thing in the submission is the minimap/radar that shows where enemies are, but as far as the aesthetics go I wish the background tiled better/ had more variety than what appears in-game.

Loved IT! Simplistic yet fun to play! Really works with just one button press, so it fits well with the theme!

nice job! plays really well & the different enemy types are really cool! Levels 7 & 8 were pretty difficult, couldn't get passed Level 8. But overall good job!

I'd appreciate if you could play/rate my game as well! :)
