Awesome game! The drifting in the game feels really cool, but a bit of friction would be nice to the player. Nice game

very simple and cool game!! nice, but i don't understand how it interact with topic??

Developer

every time you fail (die by running into the asteroids), you progress towards winning the game and get a brand new spaceship! It’s messing with the concepts of winning and losing by having it so once you “fail” 13 times, you actually win the game !

Interesting shoot game. Personally, I stop try to fly to have more chance to shoot asteroid ! (i'm a noob pilot). It was funny. Good job

Developer

thanks so much!

I see asteroids, I click like.

Seriously though, I really liked how the ships weren't just linearly better, but had different strengths and weaknesses.

Splitting an asteroid would sometimes spawn a smaller one right on top of me, whereas I feel they should be confined to the outline of the big asteroid.

Overall, good fun, and a good take on the theme.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback ! Definitely some issues that could be improved upon but I’m glad you had fun !

I really liked the graphics! Also I had fun finding out which ship I would get next when I died.

Fun to play. I love the concept of getting something new when you die. Basically a more fun way of tracking “lives”.

The inertia felt in the spaceship’s steering is a nice touch. I would love though if dying would clear the central area, sometimes I respawned there, only to instantly die.

Developer

Yeah that’s a good suggestion, for players that are trying to get as high a score as possible it does suck to instantly die. Thanks for playing !

oh my god the visuals and the sounds! this game gives off such an awesome vibe, good job! the music is a little too loud though, but that's an easy fix


and at first i thought this mechanic could never work but you made it work, so good job :) it does need a lot of work though, right now playing isn't VERY fun, but it is still fun!

Developer

thanks for the feedback !

Veery pretty! Good game, but the controls feels a bit off, and maybe the music is too loud?

Developer

Thanks for the helpful feedback !

I found the game really fun and I love outer space related things so I got attracted to this game like a magnet, the only thing is that I kept getting spawn killed which guess is a good thing since dying is good?

Developer(+1)

Yeah that’s a benefit not a downside !
