I have the same bug.
3, 2, 1 ...and then the stars freeze and nothing happens.

Can't get it to go beyond "start".

To those of you who have experienced the game freezing after the 3,2,1 countdown: I have tested and fixed the issue. I have uploaded a new build with the fix. Thank you.

Ok it works now. Final score : 900.
A simple game but correctly executed. Good work.

This would be a lot of fun on a mobile something. The flashing was a bit obnoxious though :)

I liked the old school minimalist feel. I think the aliens could have moved around a little more, they seemed to graviate out toward the corners. Felt like the hit detection was a bit off, I actually found it easier to play windowed.

Works well and is fun for a while (maybe I should keep this game to train my trackball pointing skills!) The starting sound and the flash when an enemy is killed are a bit violent though! And it *seemed* that I had to click slightly in front of the enemies.

Hmm. What about points-- if you misclicked? I think it would be very nice aim training game :)

A well executed, minimalistic, take on the genre.
