This is my late entry to the warmup. In this game, one bullet is enough. Download Silver Bullet
Sorry about the huge size of the window. Also, sorry about the high difficulty level. I'll be figuring out how to balance it better later. Until then, I would appreciate some feedback. ^__^

The difficulty level is indeed high, but I like it. What was your high score? Moving the ship seems mostly unnecessary, but well, it's a quickie.

I haven't been keeping track of my high score very well, but I have got at least 297 points.

I wrote a bit about it here.

Hey pekuja, is it just me or does it get impossible past 700 points?

At that score and beyond the game kinda goes haywire and it spawns about 5-10 enemies a second, causing the game to start freezing up, luckily I got hit before that happened... ;)

Anyways, good game! I really liked the difficulty at the start, and the graphics were great :P

Hmmm, it seems I am not the only one saying this :)

I just got up to 856, but I'll admit I cheated
I had someone playing with me, and I hacked the game to move the ball with my mouse :P

My un-cheated score is about 235 :)

I played a bit more and I just made it to 627. :) I have a little strategy that sometimes works, and sometimes it doesn't. Run away from the enemies keeping them on your tail and going round and round. Since you're slightly faster, they won't catch you. So don't worry about them, worry about the enemies that appear on your front and sides and that you can't dodge. Whenever you have some slack, kill off the enemies on your tail for the score (who should be all grouped together and easy to kill).

My strategy is to not move the ship at all and just be super slick with my one bullet :)
