I would recommend putting info about minimum required java version somewhere in the description, it would make getting this thing to run less frustrating.\n\nAnd unfortunately, there isn't all that much to say about the game itself. It's very basic shooter, that neatly fits theme, I'll give you that, but there is little in a way of challenge or progression. Simple addition of \"enemies\" speeding up with passage of time, would give it a bit o challenge. Great job of writing it all in pure java though.
