Description
Your country's almost bankrupt and creatures from space are invading. Kill them and find treasure to pay off your debt and reach a high score.
String together kills for maximum points while avoiding dozens of enemies to compete on the Kongregate leaderboard list. There's a list for overall scores as well as perfect game scores (no damage, no warps).
How to Play
[ARROW UP] to propel, [ARROW LEFT/RIGHT] to steer.
[Z] to spray, [X] to warp.
Kill stuff, loot jewels, reduce your debt to 0 as quickly as possible while maintaining long combos to get a high score.

I would like to suggest that you add power-ups into the game field. It rewards the player who manages to fight gazillion of the monsters to reach it. It should also be possible to take a loan of life (add lives or warps, and another gazillion of debt). Very great game performance- and gameplay-wise.
Thanks. It seems obvious now that it's really missing rewards like power-ups among other things. I plan to rewrite things for a sequel (Outerdebt 2: Into Surplus :p), with mouse-aiming, WASD movement, various weapons upgrades, and some enemies that home in mixed up with the aimless fodder. Also a simplified scoring system with a multiplier that increases at various stages. And get rid of the HUD :) Performance-wise, the flixel AS3 library helped a great deal.

i dont like the way u move around the screen in this game and it got boring in 1 min
thanks for your (blunt) feedback, it's useful. it could do with upgradeable weapons and more variation in enemy types(like practically every game of this time). I thought the meta-game of stringing together combos for high scores would make it fun enough but it doesn't look like it.
