It's hard to read the story.
Sorry that you had trouble reading the story - I kept the color same as your ship hoping it wouldn't be too distracting.
The enemy's collision was actually somewhat an accident - I planned to have a 1 hit = 1 life mechanic , but since I used [https://quantumproductions.itch.io/combo-rockets](https://quantumproductions.itch.io/combo-rockets) as my codebase, the collision + inertia physics were kept in. I laughed when I got hit by a rocket and saw it was still there, so kept it in.
The text is a bit hard to read while playing.
But overall a realy good game.
The little story was a neat way of adding incentive to complete the game even when it felt too difficult, to see the rest of it, tho sometimes it was difficult to find the time to read in between enemies and the time limit. I did find it difficult to keep track of the power sometimes, so a sound effect just before it depletes to give me some extra warning would've been nice.
Some suitable music would of course have been cool, but what can you do? c: Overall a cool game and a nice entry!
