Awesome submission! I loved all the affirmations as sound effects, it felt very Bennett Foddy haha. It took me a while to realize that leaving the screen was an instant kill, but on the plus side, the player explosion was also super cool! Haha, thanks for the fun play. :)

The ease of destroying the enemy and the satisfying boom made this game easy for replay. You should export it to the browser.
First of all, +1 to lorporlem's question: Does touching the border of the screen instantly kill you? If so, that should be explained in-game. The shooting and aiming feels smooth, and the effects look nice. Bonus points for the settings that get saved between sessions. The full screen toggle was on at first, but it still loaded as a window. Toggling it off and back on works, but you might want to know it does that since it only happens on the first launch.
Cheers :)
Nice cool shooter! I enjoyed it. I would have liked the power ups waiting a little longer before going away. Like at least the time the ship needs to traverse the mean distance from end to end with this speed. On another aspect, why did I get blown away when being at full health when I reached the end of the screen with all enemies in front of me?
Cool, it performs really well! I did find the voice clips a bit distracting - they overlap a lot, and it feels like there should be some kind of two-way radio effect on them since we're in space. The effort to include them at all helped to give this game personality when compared to other games like this one though, so I think it was a good decision overall!
I really liked how the voice over kept track of what was happening with the wave and informed me how I was doing. Really cool touch!
really well done on this situation. everything is so polished. The art, the sound, the animations, the UI. Also I will mention the movement and shooting mechanic is smooth and kind of addictive.
One bug I encountered was when I died in my first try I had to restart the game to get the enemies function again. If I didnt restart the enemies didnt shoot and after 2nd wave there were no more waves. but once I restarted it worked fine. I guess the issue is with the game loop. The other aspects are well done. Great Job. I had fun playing it and beating that high score everytime
I would've like for the spaceship to be a little faster, but very good game

I liked the dynamic voice updates and it felt good blasting the hundreds of ships! I survived until wave 4 the first time, but the second and third time I played it wouldn't let me progress past wave 2. Regardless, that was a really time!
Good graphics and good and clean Space shooter !
so clean, well done. I have a little bug, after first death and retry, enemy stop shooting, and only first wave was clerable
game feels very polished, all the menus and stuff are amazing and all the assets look very good. Gameplay is fun! Will definitely keep playing in the future. Also very much appreciate that there's a linux version provided :)
Good job on the interesting use of audio and even a bit of visual effects there, and the mechanic felt pretty clean as well. Nice game overall!
Wow!!! This screams you've been doing this a while, and I love to see it! There wasn't anything I could say was wrong and it will be saved on my computer to be played in the future just because. lol Loved how everything fit so well.... great job!
