Micro Shooters - Javascript Phaser 3 Game built in 5 days.

In this project, we were required to build a space shooter game with the Phaser Javascript library.
The player will have to kill different types of enemies with AI functionality. He can also pick droppings to increase his weapon level/lives or to enter in shield mode.
The game currently has 7 levels (from which one is a Boss and the last one has an infinite spawn). The player can reach a maximum of 5 extra lives and level 7 laser.
The game is tested using Jest for unit testing
