Add a hotkey (for example P) to pause the gameplay.

Alternatively, add a settings files with a list of customizable hotkeys.

What do you mean by a settings file? My idea is to make a game menu. With the following options:

  • Play
  • Settings
    • Language
    • Hotkeys
    • Difficulty (? maybe add that later)
  • Credits
  • Exit

For the credits screen I could use the content of the ATTRIBUTIONS.md file (assets) and me (programming) and special thanks (bug reporting, etc.).

The user could change the hotkeys from that menu, a file would be created in the ~/.config/bullet_dodger and APPDATA in Windows (just the same way the high score is saved).

Any suggestion.

What do you mean by a settings file?

A text file where users can define some settings. In this case for example, which key they want to use for pausing the game.

OK, I've opened an issue for a start menu, from the settings>hotkeys you would be able to change the keys without having to edit a file manually: jorgesumle/bullet_dodger#9
