Stereotypical 2D Space Shooter

Hey guys,

Last night I was bored so I decided to do a tiny game jam with me myself and I and I came up with this unoriginal but sort of fun game that actually contains the best artwork I personalty have ever created. I hope you enjoy

It's pretty good, but I do have something to say about it.
I noticed you use the same code multiple times - Instead of making a separate 'if' statement for wasd keys and arrow keys, you can do this:

Code: Select all

if love.keyboard.isDown('left','a') then

And instead of copy-pasting the game over code, you can just make a function that will contain said code, and use that function where needed. Or you can just make an 'or' statement -

Code: Select all

if losecondition1 or losecondition2 or etc then
	--game over stuff here
end

Other than that, good work! Some sounds would be nice, too.

Yes I realized that after I had finished at which point I was tired and just called it a boost feature and left it at that
