I like that when I'm getting it started, it is teaching me to move in circles. (I didn't take the hint at first and ended up going too far.)

damnnn this is fun!! i'm not that great at it, but this game really feels like something that can be mastered with practice. i like the vibe that comes with starting immediately to the game. the controls feel really solid; we need more games that use only the crank — i also like the element of not being completely in control to start, but being able to hone your skills and gain a gut feeling of how to maneuver over time. my current best is a meager 1348!
This is super fun, feels like I'm a stunt pilot constantly doing tricks :D I'm impressed with how you pulled off some great graphics & effects from just simple shapes, and I love the use of moon phases for health. Definitely going to keep playing this one!
Really incredible feeling controls, and I love the little intro with the circle expanding when spin the crank - extremely fun touch.
If I could ask for one thing... maybe a little health gauge for the moon appearing in the corner of the screen if the moon scrolls off the screen - there's a couple of times I got a little too zealous about chasing an asteroid and flew off into the boonies and had to make a decision as to whether or not it was worth trying to save a run or not.
This might be my favorite entry! It feels great to play and it made me want to play more to get better. Really solid all around.
Awesome game! seems like there is a really high skill ceiling even with the simple controls. Would love to see this concept expanded on!
Super easy to pick up and play, and I really like the upbeat music with the simple art. I'll be keeping this one for sure!
