COOOL!
I like low res games, they're so retro!
I hope you release soon a new version with upgrades and new enemies.

A great start. I've always loved games like this - bring on the bosses!
(Perfect music too, btw.)

Pretty cool, I love the powerups going upwards instead of coming down.
Played it till I scored 71400, there's no more enemies now :(

Cool game! Love the graphics, sounds and music! The gameplay is pretty basic right now, but like th15 said, the pickups moving upwards is a neat touch and your own plans says everything that I'd suggest for improvements.
Oh, and make sure to include the warning signs before bosses appear. Those are always awesome :)

hey everybody thanks very much for trying it out and posting some feedback, I really appreciate it!
Cactus - oh yeah, totally - the backgrounds are going to drop away, big flashing red "WARNING MASSIVE ENEMY APPROACHING" sign will appear, music of doom kicks in...all the usual goodies :D

Hey, online high score system was added, and i fixed a bug where the waves sometimes stopped appearing. Also lots of changes on the backend that will make the next game/prototype much easier to make!
