So, I was just testing how to add touch controls so my sometimes development partner could play the web version of our games on phone or tablet and accidentally finished a game 😉

A fast, simple, not very original arcade game.
No sprites, just some coloured blocks and text labels.

Alone in the void, protect your base from the ... squares ...?

Fire lasers with keyboard (cursor keys, WASD), controller (stick or buttons), touchscreen or mouse

Couldn't open local database: The user denied permission to access the database

From your comment it’s not clear under what circumstances this message occurred, or what platform you were on, but it seems to say that the system asked for permission to do something and you denied it permission to do so?

Im on pop os linux using brave, it my be my ad blocker thats stopping it from loading?

I hadn’t used Brave before but have installed it to see if this blocking occurred for me too.

Yes, it’s definitely the Brave shield causing this (and it probably will block all other DragonRuby based games too) - if you set it Shields down for this site it should work as expected.

Very fun!
