Get in the shoes of The Commander and command an army of bricks against the horde of bloodthirsty windows - IN SPACE!
Move your mouse to pilot the spaceship. Left click to shoot (if you have bricks orbiting you) Right click to suck in bricks - they will start orbiting you
When you get hit, you lose all your bricks, but you only lose health when you don't have any bricks orbiting you. When an enemy hits the bottom of the screen, you lose HP.
allegro_init("COMMENT"); /* Really tight mechanics and a good mix on the theme with growing by sucking up the bricks and firing them! I think the game needs some powerups and new enemies to make the shooting easier and keep the interest up. Also a big up for keeping allegro alive.

Well, the theme was Two button controlls or growing. I can't see no growth, and you are using three "buttons" (yes the mouse is also a "button/controll")
Any game with "Extreme" in the title is of course awesome (*cough*pls_play_my_entry*cough*) and not just the code but also the style is reminiscent of Sos. Funny and a creative bullet mechanic.
Thanks to everybody for the comments and votes! zenmumbler: yes, the game is pretty Sos-like, mostly due to the fact that I played McPixel and watched his allegro.js tutorial-stream-thingy just before the compo

I liked sucking up bricks to shoot at everybody however.
