Controls are a hybrid of two thrusters - they make sense on their own, but when combined, chaos ensues!

Adding the second thruster was clever - adding in the ability to stop with a cooldown made it into an interesting game. After I tried to get a high score, I spent a while just trying to see how fast I could spin, which in itself was really fun. I agree with others - I think this has great potential. Maybe instead of random debris you could make a game with set levels with predetermined debris locations and it becomes more of a puzzle game?
First of all, I wasn't expecting so much change in the gameplay by the addition of an extra thruster. It really brings a new curve in the difficulty and opening a lot of gates for the 'WoW' moment. With some really good aesthetic design I think this game will hit the market. In terms of aesthetic design you should check out my game 'Platris'. As we have done a small amount of work (like the camera shakes) but bringing in a strong emotion of satisfaction.
This has a lot of potential for hilarious physics-based game. Would love to see more work done on it!
I second that. Its a good premise that i could see being built into something that has more replay ability.
This pun thrusted me out of this world
I don't think I ever made a game without a punny title <3
