Nice old school space shooter feel and aesthetics. I had fun playing for a few runs, but then couldnt get past a certain stage. The controls feel good and the core mechanics are solid. I also like the fact that you have put messages which have some references to home to tie in with the theme, though i felt that the connection could have been stronger.. I think maybe the difficulty could have been tuned donw a bit in the early stages with fewer space ships shooting at the player and then increase that gradually. UI was also quite intuitive, though the logic for recharging of bullets was not very intuitive to me, but wasnt really much of an issue. Overall was good fun, well done!
