Nice game. I would appreciate more feedback on getting power ups and more clear info about HP of the enemies. Some of them have the hp bar some not. Shaking the screen is nice but I would prefer to do it apart from the UI. It would bring up the readability.
Apart from that very nice game. Keep it up!
