Awesome game! Very enjoyable, I especially like how you mixed the background with what I assume are like GIF sprites, it gives a really cool effect I haven't noticed before! My favorite part was how satisfying it was "popping" an enemy which comes from the use of very solid sound and visual effects. The visual elements are top notch and I like the simplistic HUD on the side of the screen. Fantastic job!

Thank you for playing and enjoying the game !
If you’re curious ,
the only animated parts of the background are the planets, gas giants or black holes, you can import a gif into aseprite and export a sprite sheet from the. All other elements are simply scrolling and ressetting position once at midpoint and making sure everything is seemless , the background stars actually randomizes once they reset. The asteroids are just rotating and falling slowly ^^"
Thank you again for the nice comment !
