A shoot-em-up inspired by the classic Galaxians game. Repel waves of invaders using your gun turret. Manage the temperature of the turret to avoid overheating.

Use LEFT, RIGHT and SPACE keys to move the turret. ESC quits the game.

Version 0.6 now includes an online-high score table so you can compete against others online to get the highest score!

This is an early release of my general online-high score system that I am testing in a limited form here. If all goes well with this test then I will release this as a standalone component.

If you are interested in testing the system on your game then let me know.

    This game is superb. I love how falling spaceships can bring down others. The game feels very well-balanced, although I wasn't able to get past about 160,000 fairly. It really needs more levels; the repeats get old after a while.

    In version 0.7, can't get over ~50,000. The stupid orange ships get lower and lower and just crash into you, especially on the mothership level. The purple bombers' shots are also close to unavoidable. Sometimes the ships seem like they can't crash into each other, and once a ship somehow got thrown to infinity, so it couldn't be killed but the level wouldn't end.

    can you input your name into the web high scores, instead of just number 1-10? Currently i got 8900, but it would be cool if you are within the top 10, you could put your name in it
