with the speed the asteroids are attracted to the station.. maybe the bombs could be stronger ? I felt there was no way to sustain against the onslaught

Thanks for playing, as I was explaining to Wyatt, this is a survival-mode, game jam entry. If you last more than 5 minutes, that is more than I expected anyone to want to play for.

I've added a graphic to illustrate the progress meter's impact on force generated.

"attracted to the station", is not how asteroids work. The asteroids track through the play area in a straight line. It is your job to identify which pose a threat. A half to two thirds will collide with the station but feel no sustained attraction to it, other than the momentum they start with.

You are also expected to try to conserve the components of momentum that are least harmful. Your bombs go a lot further if you don't fight every second of momentum from asteroids. Here, for example I don't reverse direction but I do direct it away from the station, in one hit.
