Destroy the World

//Flash 8 Required - Fast comp recommended//
//Edit: Added easy mode for those non-hardcore gamerz :)//
//Edit 2: Woo front page <3 NG! :D //
Enough Weapons of Mass Destruction have been found on the Earth to destroy dozens of planets! Obliterate the tyrannical human empire before they destroy the peace and freedom of the whole galaxy! It's been forever since I made a game so I was trying lots of new graphics and coding stuff with this one, and I made each level play differently.

Tips:
*Press "controls" in-game for gameplay instructions.
*Homing rockets move faster than they accelerate - change directions quickly to avoid them, or to get them to slam into the ground (Which can kill enemies, too)
*Rockets can be shot down but it's often not easy.
*Rockets detonate harmlessly when they run out of fuel, which take 4 seconds.
*Use the tilt of your ship to your advantage when firing lasers.
*Watch that laser cannon charge!
*You don't have to kill everything in the level to win - just survive to the end! (Except mission 2 where the mothership must also survive)

Production Notes:
My computers hard drive recently killed itself, taking with it several projects I was working on. I then found an old CD over a year old containing a very old game I had started but never completed because I didn't even understood how to make Flash games. I now know crap-loads more about Flash and programming, so I decided to actually create the game with new graphics and coding - a lot of the stuff in this game I have only JUST learned, or learned WHILE I was making it.
