I really like the concept and, more than that, the increasing difficulty of the game.
Great job!

Theme interpretation
The theme was moonshot so made it straight, shoot the moons if they collider with Earth then, Boom!!!

That was intense! Got to a score of 500 before getting tired, but something about blowing up the red moons (great particle sound effects) was super satisfying. I though the most interesting part of the game was when I had 3 launchers, for the simple reason that the two-launcher and four-launcher configurations were symmetric. Having three launchers arranged asymmetrically means that the optimal strategy is just to aim for the closest moon but possibly to make sure you're lining up a shot with 3 hits as well (which is something you could have explored by making all launcher configurations asymmetrical). I feel like this could very easily add some depth to the game.
The presentation of your game was super clean and I especially liked how smooth the aiming control was, that felt great! I really got a sense of becoming more powerful with each additional launcher, and I think you could have easily gone above the maximum four launchers and increased the difficulty a bit more (but maybe that is still to come). Nice work!
Simple but effective concept! Nice job! My video review below, even though the game was a bit laud to hear my voice!

Thanks for reviewing my game on your channel, I will check out your game but Due to itch.io I am unable to comment on others game(I will comment on your channel about your game). btw can you join our discord community cause I and my team are making a 2d story driven game, this will keep us motivated to work on the project:-https://discord.gg/4888X5D .
It's a fun little arcade-y thing! I would have liked it more if there was some more progression - for instance, different enemy types.
I died at 365. Was a ton of fun I felt like I was a cowboy duel wielding pistols.
Graphics were amazing and the music did a good job bringing out the tension.
I want to live on this version of Earth they seem to have so many resources to be able to constantly make rockets lolol
Great job!
Thanks, btw I am MK dev and I am working on a big 2d project:-Dark Gladiator, can you join my discord server to so support and give feedback on Dark Gladiator project. https://discord.gg/4888X5D
Nice game.
You did well with the increase of difficulty. Usually, at those type of games, we see an exponential increase. However, at some point (when I reached 4 missiles), I had the impression that the difficulty was not increasing anymore.
I liked the art and audio :)
I ended up getting hard locked into an instant loss even on reset/Registry deletion. It did work for a few seconds correctly, but it crashed, then I was greeted with the instant loose scenario loop.
No quit to main menu or Quit button added to close the game, have to alt-f4 or ctrl alt delete to stop the process.
Had fun until the crash though, neat little defense concept!
