Jumped into air space Shooter

Jumped into Cur8 Games today for a quick session, but honestly this one didn't go the way I wanted. Only managed to hit 3,430 points before it was game over, and that was still at level 1. Kind of a letdown ngl, especially since my best score sits at a solid 24,329 — so this run was way below that mark.
Not sure what happened tbh, maybe I was a bit distracted or the difficulty just ramped up faster than usual. Either way, it's one of those sessions where things just don't click. Happens to everyone though, gaming isn't always about hitting new highs, sometimes it's just an off day and you gotta shake it off.
The game over screen offered a continue option for 50 coins plus a free upgrade, but I decided to skip it this time since my balance is only at 130 coins and I'd rather save up for something bigger down the line.
Gonna hop back in soon and try to beat that old best score again. Let's see how the next run goes!
