Good use of particles and (I assume) tweening for the scaling on the rectangles. Great example of how small effects like these can amplify the feel of a game tremendously.
Most of my base code is centered around timers and tweening, so, this being a test of my base code, I tried to do a bit of a stress test of it all in an attempt to catch any bugs. I'd seen the video you linked (I hope everyone making games has seen it), and agree, a wonderful talk.
Pros: -The simplistic visuals and minimalistic gameplay makes you focus on you doing. -The glow effect around the rects are simply amazing. -The particle effects from the rects is also stunning.
Cons: -I didn't move at all for a whole a game, I literally just held down the spacebar and let enemies bunk into my particles. My score got well into the 8000's. I'm not a game design expert, but, I am pretty sure you aren't supposed to be able to do that. I didn't die, I just got bored. -The flashing white is way too much. And it happens too often. (Add a counter or something or a timer or something, I am rarely bothered by flashing lights.)
Other than that, there is not much to complain about with this game, it is simple, and beautiful. After all, this is just a warm-up game, KEEP. IT. UP. :D I would love to see what you make in the future. <(^-^<)
