I love this game - it shares a lot of the (re)playability that makes Flappy Bird so compelling. Great to see HTML5 being utilised like this. A couple of comments/questions:

- Is there actually a 'Moon Base' that I can get to? If not, maybe use a different narrative, because I'm being promised something (another level?) that isn't delivered.

- another vote for keyboard controls for the power-ups. I was very pleased to discover that I could use space instead of clicking the mouse, though :)

- a very minor issue: I think the graphics could do with a small polish. i'm certainly not the person to do it, i'm afraid, but I think the game could easily suit an '8-bit' style or some other reworking

Other than that, though, great work. I would happily pay to support your work - do you have any kind of account I can donate to?

Powerup shortcuts are 1, 2 and 3 on keyboard - I'll add some instructions. I drew every pixel and I'm not much of an artist, so definitely room for improvement there!
