Theme interpretation
I decided to take the "Moonshot" theme as literally as possible, and make a game where you have to shoot missiles at the moon.

It did evolve into making a game with infinite waves, where the player cannot complete the game : they need to achieve something that is impossible.

This is a very polished game! With cool sound effects, explosion and particle effects and music, everything just fits!
And you did a fantastic job with the controls: they feel fluid!
Amazing job!

This is great. Definitely the most polished game I have played in the jam so far. The controls are satisfyingly responsive, and the animations are SO juicy. I LOVE juice.

Really well  done. I have no complaints. If you want one suggestion, I'd say add a score multiplier based on accuracy at the end to discourage spamming (though...spam doesn't help a lot in the later levels).

Thanks a lot for the feedback! Adding a combo multiplier was literally the next thing I wanted to add, probably as an upgrade (To increase the maximum cap by one for every upgrade)

This is absolutely phenomenal game!  It is definitely one of the most solid and polished jam games I have played.  As an effects guy myself, I have to say that your particles and effects are just perfect.  Would love to see more upgrades and gameplay diversity in the future.  Nice work!

Thanks for the feedback!
I didn't have time to, but I wanted to provide an upgrade to allow players to start at a higher level after having cleared it. Maybe later!

Cool game bro :P I think can even improve the difficulty a little bit, I have the must fun at level 9 but the 3 first levels get tired quickly when you died a lot
