I found it very hard, so after a few retries I stopped playing. If you keep in mind that most of the community members are young, I guess it will be hard to get plays. Unless it's a survival, I never put a number of lives. I lower score instead. I really liked it, but I'm not good enough to play more than a minute, it's too frustrating. Perhaps make it reset your score and number of lives when you reach 0 lives ?

If you need any health meter logic, please try my toolkit, I just rebuilt the level so there's a nice tutorial.
