Very cool game! I managed to take #1 spot on the scoreboard (for now) so I have to document it here before someone with some real talent comes along lol
I really like the look of the game, feels really retro. I remember playing games that looked and felt a lot like this growing up back when we had dial up internet and you played games from a floppy disk! The shield mechanic is cool and it's neat to have to protect your backside, though it was also nearly impossible to get any further once your shield was broken...also it seems like the way it's currently set up, whoever is the most patient will win as it doesn't seem to care what heat you're on on the scoreboard. Maybe it does though? I dunno. Anyway, great job!
