I am a huge fan of Galaga so I was excited to try this one, and I thought it was great! The whole vibe matched what I think of as 'retro' really well and I played it a bunch of times :) The enemies started out a bit spongy and with the difficulty scaling, later on I was having a really hard time tracking single enemies long enough to kill them with all the bullets on screen, especially when I didn't have any powerups. I think having some more enemy variety with some weaker enemies and a few spongier enemies could make this game feel a lot better. I was also a little frustrated with how the shots from my ship kept changing sides, and since I was mostly looking downfield at the enemies it felt inconsistent to line up my shots.
Good work, I liked all the additions to the standard Galaga gameplay to make it feel fresh! My highscore is 6910 :)
