Bird Up

This game was made in a three-hour hackathon by oisincar, Zantier, and myself.
It's impossible to win, and unsatisfying to lose.

The Game

You are a spaceship. You are under assault from a legion of evil '#'
characters. The aim is to stay alive long enough to stop acting like an
immature 20-year-old spaceship, maybe develop a meaningful relationship with an
attractive spaceship of a similar or opposite gender, perhaps get a hobby,
settle down into the house you plan to get a mortgage on, etc.

Of course, all of this is purely hypothetical, as you're going to lose after
playing for a few seconds to a minute anyway.
