1.) The store is great, but since all asteroids spawn on a collision course with your ship it's not likely to give you much time
2.) The ship hitbox is big and a single hit = death, maybe a health bar would be nice, or shields or something
3.) Sometimes debris from a breaking asteroid spawned going REALLY fast right at my ship, no chance for me to escape or destroy it in time
With these few pain-points in mind, you could easily make the game really fun very easily! Hope you keep working on it :)
Great idea to have a shop and make conservation of ammo important. I got hit by spawning asteroids a few times and then I had to rage quit. But great work!
