This is my submission to the DEV Web Game Challenge (https://dev.to/challenges/webgame), with an alien theme

What I Built

A simple prototype like arcade game where you kill green aliens and try to survive as long as you can with limited resources

Journey

So I recently joined this platform (DEV.to) last week and saw that there was a web game dev challenge that was ongoing so I decided to join in. Unfortunately due to work-life imbalance, I had barely a day and a half to work on the game. I'm a solo dev that builds web based games from scratch(that is plain HTML,(a bit of) CSS and majorly JavaScript 😅). My games have really come a long way from using divs to canvas API which I'm still learning btw. I don't use any libraries or frameworks just my mobile text editor 😅. So as soon as I got free time during this weekend I did what I could for now, I'll try to make updates to the game before the announcements of the winners.
