Good idea! And also very detailed!

Nice! I wish the enemies would bounce a little higher sometimes though :) Based on the comments I should check out Pang -- never heard of it. Really enjoyed this though, nice work.

Nice! Reminded me of old arcade games like Asteroids

Really nice game.

It was quite difficult and I didn't realize I could unlock more ships after completing all the levels. Replaying some levels after unlocking new ships made the game easier. Maybe you can add a "New Ship Unlocked" message in level end screen.

Also, sometimes I got a little confused on pressing left or right, especially when the ship was on top. It would've been easier if the ship stayed at one location and the level rotated.

Overall, great job! Good Luck! :)

I found the controls sometimes unintuitive too, not least because my brain kept wanting to map right to  clockwise and left to anticlockwise. (Thanks to the devs for making it possible to change that!)

This is a really clever idea! I quite liked the space theme, and the way the ship flies off when you clear a round. It'd be nice if the stuff between the rounds was a bit faster, or skippable. The 3 count feels like it takes forever after your second or third fail, and while neat, the ship animation as it sets up to leave the scene feels like it drags a bit.


All said, well done!

A very nice reboot of Pang, always as addictive :)

The menu is very smart.

Well done

Clever take on the Pang/Buster Bros arcade game! ;) I love the slick modern visuals and the revamped concept in your app for sure. Very cool game! ^ ^
