I'm still obsessed with making my game, which you can try it at the link above (it is desktop only). This is my first "real" game, and it has been incredibly fun and rewarding. I've been working on it in the evenings for about 4 or 5 months.
It is a very ambitious mix of genres - shoot-em-up and deck-building. A lot of people said that those are genres that shouldn't be combined, but I think it turned out to be a fun little game. Folks who are not fans of one (or either) of the genres are actually playing it. I built a global high-score leaderboard, and there are people (including a few of my friends) competing on it. Whoever knocks my friend "BER" from first place will earn a beer from me.
This is purely a fun project, although I'm now seriously considering releasing it on steam when I finish everything I planned for it. It is made in Kaplay, a small JavaScript gamedev library, which is a big part of what makes it fun. If you try it out, please leave a comment, I would love more feedback!

Love it! I was instantly hooked and its a lot of fun to play. And it's so smooth and easy to pick up!
This is great!
Did you do the graphics, too? I've always want to write my own game but doing the game graphics is just not my thing.
This is awesome. I only made it to stage 5 but love the mix of genres
OH MY GOD THIS IS GOOD.
Loved the music.
Didn't know what was going on half the time.
Positively overwhelmed.
Thanks for that little spark of joy!
