Cool design. I mostly agree with the other commenters about a restart button. Having a restart button appear upon losing would also make it a bit clearer that the losing condition is final. Because the animation continued, I was wondering if the intent was to break away somehow. Nice use of Creative Commons images. It would be slick if the music looped more smoothly, though I don't think I've ever successfully gotten music looping smoothly, myself. Something in the playback system always seems to delay just long enough for it to be noticeable, though there must be a way. It'd also be cool if the page described what tools/tech you used to make the game... and maybe I should too on my game's page, haha. :)

I may be stubborn, but I'm actually starting to like the lack of a reset button.
Don't get me wrong, you're all definitely right, but it's a thorn in the side, and something about that makes me proud. You just sit with it. It's a bit of discomfort in what is arguably the most accommodating artistic medium. No other medium offers a tutorial in every piece. Why should we? Because we have an element of interactivity? Yes, but that can be exploited. I'd like to experiment more with stuff like this.
I made it in good ol' html, css, and javascript. Dirtiest code ever. Being that it's web based and will most certainly lag, it didn't make good sense to spend precious jam time perfecting the loop, but I agree, it would have been slick. I used the p5js library, only to use the draw function as a game clock, and all the animations are gifs.
