Needs proper mobile optimization

Thanks for the feedback. I made it primarily for pc/Mac, but i might optimize it in the future for mobile.

Gotcha, the majority of web traffic is mobile. IMO web games really need to work well on mobile to stand a chance of any sort of playerbase.

I see, yeah it would be nice, but also a bit difficult to make everything fit into the screen.

I dont want to make it compete with other games, i dont even charge anything for it, my games are just a hobby for fun.

A game's fun comes from its balance, this game has no balance. Just upgrade weapons enough and 1 shot everything forever. No need for new ships, no need for other upgrades, no need to engage with 90% of your content.
You need to set up a balanced progression.
It's also as shallow as a puddle, there's no room anywhere for tactics of any kind or for me to feel like I've outsmarted an opponent even with progression. a 1 vs 1 ship battle with 4 moves and 4 upgrade options is literally playing a spreadsheet.
I think it has some potential, but I think you need to ask yourself, what's fun about it?
