Ok this was a pretty cool game!  Fast paced shooting kept me on my toes!  Contols felt nice as well!  Loved how you could angle your shots to curve around the planets! Also the art and music was nice although it would use a bit of twiking on the levels! Good job and thanks for participating in the jam!

It gets a bit confusing when more asteroids come, but the game was very interesting and fun, it had good music, good visuals. Good job

I liked to concept of the planets gravity field on the image, but in the game I could only use it once, it was a better strategy to wait for the planets to move away, and shoot in a straight line.

The art style is pretty neat.

For me, the time and  score GUI was on top of each other, but that's no biggy. :)

cool game! I like that you rotated the whole screen, rather than the player, but it got a little dizzying after a minute or so. Also, the sounds seem a lot louder than the background music. Good work!

We had 1 out of 5 of our playtesters give the same feedback but it was too late to fully address the dizzying effect some people get. We only moved the planet up a bit to give you a better focal point. First time I've personally run into an accessibility problem in my software :D

Unfortunately the game crashes whenever I shoot an asteroid.  It does seems like a cool concept though the music is a banger.  Didn't get very far though because of the crash.  Hopefully you can fix it up and ping us so we can try again.

Yikes! Just re-uploaded a build for windows that should fix this crash! Thanks for catching that. Please let us know what you think if you try the game again!

Oh awesome, thanks for the update!  Works great now. 

I really like the 360 rotation and the way the rockets curve around the planets like that.  I think the only issue I had was when an asteroid would sneak up behind me.  Maybe a larger indicator or a beeping sound or something when an asteroid gets within a certain distance would help.  Or maybe putting the player more towards the center of the screen. 

Relieving when I finally curve a rocket around a planet to hit an asteroid.
Good job!

Oof! We didn't catch that on the upload. Thanks for letting us know! I re-uploaded a build that should work now!
