What Should I change or add to this game?

this is a demo for a top down shooter game I am making about a ship fighting on a treasure map, and I recently updated it to change the enemy spawning system and add upgrades to the game, but I'm not sure what to do next, any ideas?

here is the game:

That was fun for a bit! Here's just some ideas:

- The killing counter works but another counter for pickups might be fun too. Maybe the boat needs gas? Maybe the crew needs food? Maybe you're out claiming treasure? You tell me.

- I need tunes! Repetitive games like these thrive with fitting music.

- I found it quite hard! Maybe I'm just not good at these but a slower difficulty curve might keep people playing.

The game definitely needs some QA! Pause button shakes when you click it. Not sure thats intentional but seems like a bug. S in WASD is not an input. Adding it can create a smoother movement. Adding in a "Click to start" can avoid player hitting tree at start. A short tutorial would be good aswell. "Shoot the birds" If you want more QA feedback you can dm on discord Jennktv
