This game is nice! I felt there wasn't much strategy involved in this game, but I liked the graphics, the music, and the witty comments

It is a strange idea, I have to say. Kind of works too, but it becomes trivial once you get the hang of it.

Shoot the walls a few steps ahead of you to keep the line of sight open and, TADA!, infinite energy. I got to 100000 and could have continued indefinitely had I the patience, which I sure don't.

How to make it more challenging? Maybe you could fluctuate the speed of earth or the spawning rate of the walls. Another thing you could easily test is varying the size of the walls and the amount hits they take. Not sure if any of that would work, but it's worth a go eh?

Ok job. *I guess....*
