This was fun! It reminded me of old flash games that I used to play during class. Having the SFX in key with the music was a sleek touch. I also got the freeze bug at 100 seconds but it was fun regardless!

- I think this is an all right concept at it's core, but struggles a bit in the delivery. some of the hitboxes feel a little imprecise, specifically it seems like your ship's tractor beam or whatever has a smaller hitbox than the cone actually is and it was kind of tough to judge when you were actually going to kill a ship with it. Turning also felt a bit sluggish as well. Sound was okay, but mixed a bit poorly, sound effects were way louder than the music. Also with a lack of different enemy types it got old relatively quickly. With a few extra features added though and some extra attention paid to game feel, I think this could be really solid
- The difficulty curve is really slow, I never felt I needed to use the "space bar" ability, the game didnt seem to get progressively harder and the game froze on me once I reached 100 points.
