Very nice and minimal, it's a good little time waster game. I don't mind the lack of interactivity, but 1) it gets laggy on the two levels with tons of ships (i never made it past those), 2) enemies can seemingly shoot at your from the other side of the sun even though you can't reach them, and 3) it feels almost impossible to actually beat, the whole game just feels like you have to play it on repeat over and over until you've got enough permanent +1 unit and +50% health upgrades to get through those levels, which takes a lot of fun out of it all. still, a nice game!

Oh, such detailed feedback, thanks a lot! 💖 Let's address some points
- Sad to hear that we have such a performance, web builds are always less perfomant compare to native ones, I've also included an windows version because of that
- In my head that made sense since the earth is getting invaded by an more tech advanced alien, but shooting through the sun is a thing to fix!
- Unfortunately, I've deleted 2 days worth of development of the project, and didn't have enough time to balance the levels, they were done in the last 30 minutes 😅 even myself didn't know the game was beatable, just discovered after playing for some time 😂, it is a thing we have to improve!
Also played your game and left a comment there! Such an impressive one for sure!
