I know I know, it's not obvious how this is about evolution.

I WAS going to make the ship EVOLVE with the music, but I ran out of time.

But you know what bro? It's cool, I got this...
The aliens in this game are the aliens you failed to contain in OMFG Aliens! (my LD#21 entry) and they've evolved... Maybe?

Anyway, in this Rythm/Shooter game, you go for HIGH SCORES, tap direction and action in sync with the beat for EXTRA AWESOME POINT VALUES! Combo Aliens in a single shot, pump up that SYNC bar and charge up to blast away with bigger shots. And if things get TOO hectic, use a PULSE WAVE to clear the screen.

Controls : Just press whatever keys you feel best represent a direction and ACTION setup, I got this...

Updates : I TOTALLY fixed that bug where the thing didn't work on Windows, and also a little bug with the particles on fast machines.

There was this one bug were the aliens were like "Yo, we're going to spawn SUPER fast, like 2 fast 4 you, bro!" and it's cause I'm all like "TO THE MAX" with my math.max() command, but I was supposed to be all math.min(). Now aliens won't be DOUCHEBAGS when you're being too AWESOME!

Apparently there's also a bug where everything goes "Yeah, but NO, bro.." and locks up like a deer in headlights.
I think I TOTALLY fixed this. I messed with sound retriggering and got it to be COOL when SHOOT sounds were SPAMMED.
If it still decides it's going to be UNCOOL and locks up on you, let me know and I'll tell it who's BOSS!
