I made a simple version of this as a 12 hour Ludum Dare warmup weekend way back in 2006. I Always thought the idea was worth exploring a bit more and It fit the theme so nicely it seemed silly not to.

You must protect the habitats from the incoming alien forces. Your only weapon is a whip made from arbitrarium crystals. Collect crystals to extend the whip length before engaging the enemy.

This is html-canvas and JavaScript. It seems to be more dependent on the software platform than hardware. I developed using Firefox 37 on WinXP and a fairly old Core2Duo and it runs nicely there. Chrome is a bit smoother for me but slows down a lot when FullScreen.

Developed in Haxe with a JavaScript target, Using the canvas directly rather than using a lib like OpenFL.
