This is neat. I managed to beat the AI despite the lag. The game made sense to me from your description, and after a bit of fiddling with the unpolished controls I started getting it. Its a bit dark and kinda hard to see, but I like the style!
Yeah for some reason the colors looked different in the browser than when I tested it on my machine. For me it showed up brighter though so I darkend it. Guess that was a mistake. Thanks for playing it!
