Hi  Like the idea,  It felt a little  bit to hard . but fun game, well done.

Submitted

I read the instructions, clicked on a lot of asteroids and was victorious! It was cool!

One thing I didn't understand was if the asteroids that were going off the screen were being counted or not. It seemed like they weren't, or I didn't get enough visual/sound feedback on it. It is very hard for someone with tunnel vision like me to see if the timer is getting increased/decreased every moment lol maybe a little animated "-2" where they leave the main screen?

Overall, I like the idea and I agree that it would be a good touch game! 

Keep up the excellent work!

Nice little idea. Kind of tricky, only made it to level 3. I did loose a bit of interest after a few minutes, not much progress to make (other than developing click speed...)

Maybe I'm just a noob, but it always looked as if I had more time but still lost for some reason. And another recommendation: instead of showing how to play via text, do a simple tutorial level

But apart from that, the game is pretty nice, I think it could look super fun  for mobile devices. Good job!

"Asteroid Miner" might not be the most appropriate name since this game is juss about blowing up asteroids. Anyway it's a great action game.

The game is very simple, however I didn't like the use of mouse. This would be much better with touch screen compatibility. The game could use more polish to it's UI.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback! Yes! My original thought was to make this touch screen compatible, so I will most likely add it once I have the means to test it out on a touchscreen device.

Although simple game, I liked it. Great idea, maybe would work better on touch, so would recommend putting this on like a mobile phone and you could have a popular small game in your hands! Audio worked well on top of the game play as well! 

One thing I would change or think about is the rocks that blow up into smaller rocks, that maybe they would always explode in a way that the smaller parts would go towards the middle. Also that maybe they only take like a second of your clock, or something like that, because they would do less "damage" in a sense.

Developer

thanks for the feedback! Nice to hear that people seem to like it! :D Yes, touchscreen implementation is on the list. It was what first  came to mind when I brainstormed the game. 

You’re right about the smaller asteroids, the give a smaller acore but dock a full amount of time and it doesn’t seem quite fair. So I’ll work on that in the next update. I’ll also be doing some general tweaks to the levels as well when I work on adding new ones.

Fun game! The only thing I'd suggest is to have some sort of info button in game, that displays the same info as on the itch.io page. I was a bit lost before seeing the instructions. The gameplay was fun and responsive, and I also liked the audio!

cheers! That is a good idea. I’ll try and add an info page to the start menu that’ll explain how it all works! :)
