Much better! I found a trick to it, just keep pressing the space bar over and over and shoot spreads out so it's easier to hit them. I got around a score of 52 or so.

Last version probably - my fun with it is about complete. Maybe someone else would like to add things to it from here on. Main changes in this version:
Balls will randomly drop their bombs on you now.
But...you now have an ultimate weapon - a super flash bomb.
Press ENTER to use it and destroy all balls and bombs on screen.
You only have 1 flash bomb to start with, but from time to time a
Red Pill will drop down. Collect those to get more flash bombs.
Some graphic enhancements added, like little screen shaking.

'A bare-bones small shooter game that you can expand on.
'Follow game here: https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2978
'Coded by Dav, AUG/2024 for QB64PE v3.13
'New for v5:
' - Balls randomly drop bombs on you now.
' - Health pills only drop down when needed.
' (When health perfect, they won't drop)
' - Super pills drops less frequently now.
' - New Red pill flash bomb drops occasionally
' Press ENTER to use your red flash bombs.
' When used, every balls on screen is killed
' The screen shakes too (with sound effect)
'Move player using arrow keys - SPACE bar shoots.
'Shoot the balls. Don't let any hit you or pass you by.
'Moving shields appears now and then to protect balls.
'See how many balls you can shoot down before dying.
'Catch green pill to increase your health points +1.
'Catch yellow pill to be invincible for 15 seconds.
'Catch red pill to get a flash bomb! ENTER to use it.
'This is a basic shooter game that is easy enough to
'learn from and expand on so you can make your own game,
'I used balls as an enemy because I had a ball SUB handy,
'and it had a colorful effect. Used it for shots and
'for the moving shield. I also used an alpha screen
'clearing method using LINE instead of CLS. This gave
'all the moving pieces a neat trailing/fade effect.
'If you miss a ball, or a ball hits you, then you loose
'a health point. If you loose all 7 health points then
'the game is over.
'If you catch green pills, it adds +1 to your health.
'If you catch yellow pills, you are invincible 15 secs.
'If you catch a red pill it gives you a flash bomb.
'Press ENTER to use you flash bombs, which will destroy
'all balls and dropping bombs on the screen.
'There are many ways to exand this into something better.
'If you do make more out of it, please share it also.

It plays better, but I found a bug in it. When the game ended and restarted, the shooter wouldn't shoot anymore. I don't know if it was a random fluke or something in the code.
Yeah it must be in the code, it did it 2 times in a row now.

@SierraKen: I haven't duplicated that error yet, but will keep testing for it. I added a special kamikaze ball that seeks the player out and is faster. Gonna add a few more things before posting a new version though, maybe clean up the code. May use different ball types - the one ball is getting boring.

I'm a 9-ball man, myself. Spent a lot of my younger days coding near Chernobyl.

Updated once more. This new version adds some things and fixes some things. Thanks, @SierraKen, I dd find and fix the shooting bug you discovered. The shota() flags were not being reset correctly. New in this version:
Added:
- Added a kamikaze ball - flys towards your x/y pos.
- Added a ZigZag ball. Fast, flys in a zigzap pattern.
(you can shoot them or just avoid them)
- Destroyed ball has a new look when killed (firework look).
- Player piece explodes when game over (small particle explode)
- Player now turns gold while invincible (easier to know when you strong).
- Screen now flashes red/yellow colors on low health status
- Added flashing messages top/left to catch color pills
some fixes:
- _MOUSEHIDE hides the mouse on startup.
- fixed ball respawny pos after flashbomb
- Fixed game restart shooting bug (thx SierraKen!)
Restructured code.
(Sorry Pete, no 8 or 9 balls added yet..maybe next time)

'ballshoot.bas v6
'=============
'A bare-bones small shooter game that you can expand on.
'Follow game here: https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2978
'Coded by Dav, AUG/2024 for QB64PE v3.13
' WARNING: THIS GAME HAS FLASHING SCREENS (not much though)
'New for v6:
' - Added a kamikaze ball - seeks you out.
' Only appears now and then, and is fast.
' Shoot it if you can, or just avoid it.
' If it hits you you lose a health point.
' If you shoot it, you score +5 points.
' - Added ZigZag ball. Comes down zigzagy,
' Shoot it if you can, or just avoid it.
' If it hits you you lose a health point.
' If you shoot it, you score +5 points.
' - Destroyed enemy has more explode visual.
' - Player piece explodes when game over
' - Player now turns gold while invincible.
' - _MOUSEHIDE hides the mouse on startup.
' - Low health warnings now flash background
' (yellow background = low, red = critical)
' - fixed ball respawny pos after flashbomb
' - Added flashing messages to catch pills
' - Fixed game restart shooting bug (thx SierraKen)
'Move player using arrow keys - SPACE bar shoots.
'Shoot the balls. Don't let any hit you or pass you by.
'Moving shields appears now and then to protect balls.
'See how many balls you can shoot down before dying.
'Catch green pill to increase your health points +1.
'Catch yellow pill to be invincible for 15 seconds.
'Catch red pill to get a flash bomb! ENTER to use it.
'This is a basic shooter game that is easy enough to
'learn from and expand on so you can make your own game,
'I used balls as an enemy because I had a ball SUB handy,
'and it had a colorful effect. Used it for shots and
'for the moving shield. I also used an alpha screen
'clearing method using LINE instead of CLS. This gave
'all the moving pieces a neat trailing/fade effect.
'If you miss a ball, or a ball hits you, then you loose
'a health point. If you loose all 7 health points then
'the game is over.
'If you catch green pills, it adds +1 to your health.
'If you catch yellow pills, you are invincible 15 secs.
'If you catch a red pill it gives you a flash bomb.
'Press ENTER to use you flash bombs, which will destroy
'all balls and dropping bombs on the screen.
'There are many ways to exand this into something better.
'If you do make more out of it, please share it also.
