Very nicely polished and fun to play game. The main mechanic fits the theme very well and also is enjoyable. Nice work.

Thats pretty cool! Makes me think about the space in a pretty interesting way, and it's very polished. Even an interactive tutorial level! Only gripe is with the edges of the screen being a little weird.

Thanks for playing! I can see how you dislike the edges. They probably should have had more thought put into them then they did because it's really easy to softlock.

Absolutely love the main mechanic of this game man. The amount of dynamism it offers is seriously mad. I have two main gripes though. As Cam pointed out, I too got stuck on the walls a few times which made things very annoying sometimes since I couldn't aim in the right direction.

This also may have been just me, but I regularly got confused about whether I had to press left or right to rotate in the direction I wanted to. Still though, awesome entry.

Very tricky controls, I like how situations can quickly get out of control. I wish the red indicators had a little timer so I could time my shots to be over the asteroids when they spawn (which seemed like the META). The borders of the map were a bit confusing, and one time I even managed to get myself on the edge of the border, facing the border, so I was stuck (disc despawned immediately after being shot).

Otherwise though, really well made game, the polish is mad! The art looks incredible, and the music is blood pumping. Innovative mechanic, I really love the speed of the game, though wish it went longer. Great work team!

Thanks for the feedback we all appreciate it! The border was kinda rushed so it's pretty easy to get stuck., but i found that if you mash space and hold the arrow keys you can sometimes get unstuck. And yes timing your shots over the asteroids spawn is the meta.

Cool concept, its felt a bit janky but I got used to it. probably worth making it so the saws bounce or wrap on the edge of the screen as I got locked looking away from the center

Great art and gameplay mechanic! Controls are tough to get used to though I keep thinking I can move with arrow keys.

This game is incredibly polished, fun to play, and very visually appealing.  While I don't like score based games as much, I can see people who do spending a lot of time in this.  Great job on every aspect!
