This was such a great experience and I loved that at the end I saved all the little dinosaurs! It made me very happy :) The sounds were great and the music made me feel like I was on the most important mission of my life hahaha! My only piece of feedback would be for an emphasis on the movement of the spaceship - I didn't actually have to move much at all whilst I was playing. It might be cool if something was also trying to attack me from planet earth / below my space ship so that I had to move out of the way :) Great job overall though! <3

This game was a lot of fun to play and I felt suitable levels of anxiety rising as more asteroids appeared on screen! The art syle is great, the controls feel smooth and these (along with the audio) all combined well together. My only suggestion would be to ask for more levels or gameplay so I could protect the Dinosaurs from extinction a little longer!
All I can say is "DOPE GAME!"
Music and sound effects feel very on point! The manuverability of the space craft actually resembles reality and you really have to connect some vectors and not spam the movement keys. I managed to figure it out after a while.
Maybe some forces on the ship become too strong after a while so perhaps you can put a upper limit. But that's just my own suggestion.
I like the theme and level of polish detail a lot too!
Like me some old school asteroid action. The kidlike art was great and the particles was nice. Sound was competent with a nice arcade-feel to it. I would have liked a bit of a bigger play area, so that I could pull of some flying maneuvers. Like maybe having a full earth in the center of the screen so that asteroids could come in from all 360 degrees. This could also have given space for maybe having asteroids split in two. As is, I could just stay in 1 place and fire at incoming asteroids without moving around at all. This is just a suggestion and I really liked playing this
This is super fun! I like that the effects are used to make the asteroids have some weight behind their explosions! The rocket controls well! The music and sound was a little too loud but overall I had fun!
Who doesn't love a classic game of asteroids?
The movement of the ship confused me until I realised that you can just hold w to fly toward your cursor, then I was alright.
Not much to the game, but I think the sound design was great. I definitely felt like the end of the world were at stake. Also I enjoyed how you leaned into the MS Paint art style and turned it into a feature rather than a flaw.
I instantly flew into the planet and destroyed the dinosaurs while trying to figure out the controls. 10/10
It was well executed though, good job. Each shot and hit of the asteroid making the screen shake was nicely done. I love the inertia movement, it would be interesting to see future stages trying to navigate around obstacles with it.
Nice stuff!
Haha nice game! Had a lot of fun! Music and visuals all mix well together. :)
Kinda bummed that the dinosaurs we're not included in the gameplay! Was hopping they'd be the ones shooting. XD
I would of added more difficulty by having the asteroid explode into multiple smaller rocks but that's just being nit picky!
Great job! :)
