Interesting game, I'm pretty impressed with how well the Canvas 2D performs here. I tried writing a clone of Gate88 (http://www.queasygames.com/gate88/) for the web four years ago, but even on high end machines it wasn't performant enough. Time to revisit it I think.

You can play what I built here (it's single player against the AI):

The controls are:

Arrows - move

D - Fire

Q - Place turret

W - Place mass driver
