I read in a response that you spent just around 5 hours on this so i guess it makes sense for it to be pretty undercooked. The hearts dont seem to heal you, and after death the only way to restart is to reload the entire page which is pretty dumb. Also in the menu you dont see youre cursor which is even dumber. The art is ok, nothing too awful. Audio was ok too. Overall its nothing special.

XaiverXD responds:

Added start and stop buttons. Also 5 hours is a lot for scratch, the thing I used to program it. If I used python or java, it would take 16 hours. Also the hearts that don't work are an intended feature. They're made by the enemies to trick the player into an attack.

I think that it would have been better if you made the controls wasd arrows or just keeping it simple and doing a space invaders type thing. but i think the game itself was good.

XaiverXD responds:

The reason the controls are mouse based is so you can control your speed and so I didn't have to make mobile controls.

Nice game.

XaiverXD responds:

Thanks, spent 5 hours on it. Not much but it's honest work.
