Thanks for the feedback! Can you tell me more about the projectiles getting stuck though? Im not quite sure what you mean by that.
The projectiles (circles) might be touching a square, like the following image, for two or three seconds, or more.
Then, sometimes, the projectiles moved to the larger square, losing a life -- I think that only happens while moving using WASD.
The bug is fixed now, balls that have collided with your orbit will no longer hurt you.
