Homebrew Number shooter

Nice simple concept.

A few suggestions:

Display the instructions before the game starts so the player doesn't die/almost die before understanding what to do.

Add a score that constantly increases as you survive/fire at other ships (optimally with a stored highscore).

Increase the speed of new space ships appearing over time so that it gets harder the longer you survive.

Also, I added a screenshot to filetrip.
 
Thanks for the screen shot

As for the score and speed I hope to add them into the next version, this first version was more of a demo of what the game would be like and attract more people.

I am thinking of changeing the text to sprites and setting the frame of the sprite to whatever the number is, but I have no spaceship sprites and can't be bothered to make any.
 
I would personally suggest you don't change into sprites.

The simple ASCII adds charm to the game.
