A downloadable game for Windows

This is my first "complete" game ever made. 

Try it out and please please please provide feedback.

What should I add/change that would be good practice for a novice game developer.

I am using this as a learning opportunity.

I have been working on this on and off for about two months. It is not revolutionary in any of its game mechanics but I wanted to start simple so I could start making games. However, I have learned a lot in the process and overcome some challenges I hadn't even considered would come up.

I want to put it out there so people can play it and give feedback on what I can add/change that will improve my game development skills. I have always wanted to make games and GameMaker is making it a real possibility and I think this could be a great way for me to learn.

Feel free to be harsh. I know the game is simple, but it I was able to make it in several small sessions and I am happy to see something I made in motion.

Hello, first of all the game was really cool with all the stuff!.  Remember to add information to the controls and credits!!. In my opinion  but it's optional you can add a final boss in your style that appears  when someone achieve a highscore for example 100000, because the game is  funny. Tip for game development(art): try to make more ships, more  enemys, more and more, and at the final you pick what you need!. I give  5/5 stars :)

I tried adding additional menus like Controls and Credits, but it was holding me back from getting it out for other to see the game. So I removed it. A boss battle would be a great educational trial for me. Thank you 1000% for your feedback.
