Doesn't control particularly well with keyboard, since you can only shoot on eight directions. Mouse controls better but still isn't great, since it doesn't shoot where you point the mouse. The complete lack of sound is bad too.

RumGun is a top-down "space" shooter where your only goal is to survive for as long as you can while enemies stream in from all directions. The catch? You shoot automatically, but only while you move.
To start playing: Click/tap on Classic Mode (or hit Enter) to start the game. You can use mouse/tap controls (tap/click and drag, think virtual joystick) or the arrow keys on keyboard to play.
Note: You will have to click on the game once in order for keyboard input to register.
If you like the game and/or have constructive feedback or suggestions for stuff to add to the game, please leave a comment below! I will be actively looking to update RumGun with more content later. Planned features include multiple weapon types and an actual use for the point objects that drop from enemies, as well as a short soundtrack and some simple sound effects.

The keyboard controls are unfortunately stuck the way they are, I originally just added them in as a way to debug without having to use the mouse. I kept it in thinking people might enjoy an "added challenge".
As far as mouse controls go, due to prior feedback along a similar line, I'll be looking at adding a toggle option that'll keep the origin at center so you will always move in the direction you're pointing/tapping.
Sound is planned to be fixed in a later update.
It's challenging, I love the game!
really cool! I got to 99.
Simple fun.
Cool :)
