Nice game. I like the idea, but like toddfather said it becomes too hard at 3rd level. You should increase the time progressively after each level, and perhaps add color codes to indicate how much time is left on the ball. Maybe start off at green and have them transform linearly to red, so you can see what balls need to be hit.

The thing with the color codes is a really nice idea, i think i might add that.
Also i know the game is too hard as it is now but there are some things i plan to add in the future that should make it easier.

I uploaded version 1.1
The only change is the color of the enemy changing from green to red as the time gets closer to 0.

Again nice work.

I probably suck at this game or then you have still set it on hardcore mode. I cannot get past level 4 even with the time upgrade. Anyway... If making the game easier is not your thing, I would like to see a countdown before the game starts. At the beginning of each level display some huge ass numbers from 3... 2... 1... GO! or something.

You don't lose your upgrades when you reset the game, and you can buy the time+ and enemy- upgrade as many times as you want, so given enough time and effort anybody could finish the game.
Also the countdown idea is nice i might add it in the future.

Oh I see it now. It does make the game more addictive.
