The Last Ship
All of Earth's pilots have been poisoned, all modern ships sabotaged. Only you, recently graduated from space flight school, bottom of your class are free of the sickness. Probably cos you just drink Mountain Dew and not water.
Now sensors are picking up wave after wave of enemy ships heading towards Earth. We have fished out an old clanker of a ship that can barely fly. Look for upgrades, survive and defend our home!
Yes, I just recently watched Buck Rogers okay, this is all I had time for!

Hello Everard!
Neat and fun little game, although I have a few comments if you dont mind. The 5th attack speed pickup seems to break the attack speed and increase it to a ridiculous amount, it was very funny but probably not intended. Its a little awkward being able to hit Earth yourself, it makes defending rather hard and I'll be honest, with the enemy just targeting me I flew off into the distance and didnt bother staying close to Earth. I appreciate that you used a newtonian flight model rather than a more arcady one, but I missed having sideways thrusters. I did notice that going backwards was possible, but didnt see any thruster activate, and I think it would be cool to see that modeled on the spaceship. Lastly, I didnt notice any particular increase in difficulty, and it would be nice to see that as time alive increased.
That's all from me, have a wonderful day.
I did notice the shooting speed game break and planned on fixing it but didnt get back to it. It made me laugh when I found it. The enemies do focus on the player, I meant to shift that focus but forgot, oopsie. The movement I was unhappy with, that will be refactored for sure! :) The funny thing for the difficulty was I had the spawn max at 3 in a timed interval, I initially had it at 10 and it spawned tons of them. Was funny too to see that many bouncing into each other. Some great feedback there. Really appreciate it!
