Hey look I made most of a game! Manipulate orbiting particles with your mouse and smash them into incoming enemies, it's super fun

I intend to flesh this out into a proper game that you can actually lose and that uses more than just graphics.print() and graphics.circle() for the art, but what do you think so far?

Please be aware if you look at the code, it's sloppy as hell and frankly embarrassing, I'm pretty proud of it anyway though

EDIT: re-uploaded w/ many enhancements
EDIT2: re-uploaded again with high score list functionality -- basically a complete game now except it's still ugly
EDIT3: added graphics

You might want to increase the number of vertices for the circles, but otherwise it is indeed most of a game.

P.S. Love the music.

I intend to replace them with sprites eventually anyway, so no worries

The music is 'Why Not Bossa?!' by Cdnalsi AKA Sebastian Spanache

I didn't like the repulsion mage - hitting stuff with it was too difficult.

As Bartbes says, the music is fantastic. Reminds me of Out Run's Passing Breeze and Last Wave.

did not copy, over

edit: OH HI GOOGLE TRANSLATE

i'd link you to the page in the comic where that's addressed but i can't remember where it is off-hand and it's not extremely relevant anyway (so far...???)
