Interesting concept but, even if you just want to do gameplay, you should implement levels or a highscore.

The graphics are pretty nice, so I played for a while. I killed a swarm of those boss-like creatures that hang out in the back and fire two big-ass shots at a time at me. Now I'm sitting around twiddling my thumbs looking at empty space with nothing else spawning, and reading comments that talk about how I could have fired those dynamite things if there had been any instructions or an obvious key to press to fire them.

Pretty short. The rockets(?) should be fired via the space bar or Z, X, or C button. Putting the rocket button in the lower left corner means giving up control of the ship and being unable to dodge enemy fire while hoping something flies in front of the rocket.

This is getting to be a series of terrible games. How do you use the dynamite bundles? Are you releasing these just to make people angry?

Edit, I figured out how to use the... rockets? I guess they're rockets. There's a clickable button all the way to the left at the bottom. But you have to abandon controlling your ship to reach for it.

I like this game but I can't find a way to pause or go to the main menu in this game after I died.
