The graphics are great.  I liked the CRT filter; made the game feel like an old school arcade game.  My brain kept wanting to use the down arrow key to make Zeus fly downward to stop his hovering, but that just wasted power.  If the shoot lightning ability was bound to space bar or a different key, that would fix that, or reduce the hovering up and down just a tad.  I agree with @anglain that Zeus moves around just a little to fast but I suppose you'd get used to that.  Overall a really good entry.  Simple, fun, well done.

So it was deliberate but i must confess that it was hard to calibrate it so it is maybe a little bit too hard.\n\n@jannes-nagel Unfortunately, there is no end, the only goal is to beat his best score, to respect old school arcade games principle.\n\n@pixelproductions I agree with you, the fact of adding more enemies more harder to die is a good idea.

There are only 3 kind of enemies : snake, minotaur and eye. So you've seen them all :) ! With regard to lightnings, we decided to let them follow Zeus because we thought it would be easier to play.
