Great job, this is kid tested and approved. My 12yo son, who plays a lot of FPS games discovered how bad he is using the trackpad on my MacBook Pro. It was a lot of fun seeing him as frustrated at the laughing dog as I was in 1986 on my NES.

Nice! This made my day :) Thanks to you and your son for playing my game.

I'm hoping to publish a step by step tutorial soon on how to develop this in JavaScript for anyone interested in learning gamedev.

I usually post my tutorials on my YouTube channel here : https://youtube.com/@jslegenddev (Plenty of tutorials available already for people interested in JS gamedev)

I plan this time on also publishing a written version on my Substack available here : https://jslegenddev.substack.com/

It is amazing how much easier games like this (Missile Command comes to mind as well) are with a full-blown external mouse.

If you really want to up the challenge rating, see if you can find an old IBM Thinkpad and use the nub to control the targeting reticle.
