Description
My first Action Script game, which I created during a course in programming.There are still lots of bugs... but at least it has a hipster star field background.

this is cool. But it seems you cannot die. But a very addicting game nonetheless. like a simplistic yet cool Galaga game.

You die if you have no more points.
And thank you.

Hmm, not bad. I'm not familiar with this type of programming so I'm not certain on your constraints, but I noticed that when I flew off the bottom of the screen, my bullets didn't appear. I'm sure this is a part of the game to delete bullets that cross boundaries, so that's fine, but perhaps you can make it so the ship can't move completely offscreen? Just a note. Otherwise, very well made. Reminds me of my first video game. Good times.

Yeah, I forgot that. When I played it, I just never flew out of the screen so I kinda forgot it. But it should be easy to fix.
What bothers me more is the fact that it starts to lag when enemies overlap...

Also, you might want to increase the speed of the player's ship a tad, it's tough hitting the enemies when they fly faster than you.
I hope I don't sound rude, it's a very well made game. Just critiquing as requested. ^.^

If you ever want to take a break from coding and go for more of an event based game programming, I recommend Game Maker if you ever have free time. It's nothing really serious unless you pay for the premium stuff, but it's fun to play with.
I'm also going to take this opportunity to shamelessly plug my first full game I ever made; your game really reminds me of it:

Ah, I remember my first game haha So well done on yours
It's a cool feeling, right?
I don't script this well though I kinda suck
I'm more into graphics.. It's awesome that you're doing a programming course.
Hope you make more awesome games in future

Yeah, programming is a part of our eductaion, but I also see my future more on the graphic or story telling part.

That's awesome Good luck with your course
I think I'd really like working for a gaming company. Doing graphics and stuff. Sadly there aren't any where I live

Yeah, there aren't any where I live, either...
But at least I can study Game Design here. And then I'll see what happens next

Cool
Yep, there aren't even any places to study it here.. I basically learned the bit I know about Flash on my own..
All the best
