This always seems to be something that's overlooked.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Strangely when the game was paused the cursor was locked to the window, but it was not locked to the window when the game was unpaused. The ability to fire while the game was paused also allows the player to shoot a bunch of times, making a layered up sort of &quot;super&quot; bullet which cuts through all the enemies it approaches without stopping.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It didn't seem like there was much incentive to keep all your planets alive -- I found that if I camped on the lowest one it allowed enough of a buffer between the enemies that I could stay alive indefinitely (though I see in the source there is a win screen, so I may have been being impatient or doing something wrong..). That being said the concept of hopping between the planets while they grow, and trying to defend them seems like it has potential. It'd be interesting to see the outcome if you decide to expand on the idea!\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Unfortunately I got the following error when I died:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>\tError: cannot open .\/game\/level1.lua: No such file or directory\r<br\/>\tstack traceback:\r<br\/>\t\t[C]: in function 'dofile'\r<br\/>\t\tmain.lua:277: in function 'update'\r<br\/>\t\t[string &quot;boot.lua&quot;]:442: in function &lt;[string &quot;boot.lua&quot;]:413&gt;\r<br\/>\t\t[C]: in function 'xpcall'"},{"author_name":"yumaikas","author_uid":"62747","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 1:18am","epoch":1450141980,"text":"rxi:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>It should all be fixed now.
