When Worlds Collide by OfficialDingbat
'When Worlds Collide' is a free-roam sandbox game. There are no objectives. Kill enemy ships, grapple planets and send them into each other, or shoot moons into little bits.
The game is missing lots of features but it's still pretty fun :) Hope you guys enjoy <3

The enemy ships were pretty dangerous. They sure did irritate me quite a bit when I was just trying to play around with the grapple mechanics. They were also relentless, so running away from them didn't work very well either. I was also disappointed that the grappled planets didn't affect the enemy ships at all. And I was unhappy at how easily the planets would get broken accidentally and disappear.
It might be nice to be able to un-grapple sometimes? Not really sure about that.
Finally, I found it quite strange that I needed to thrust continuously in order to follow a "fast-moving" planet -- but perhaps that's just because my team made a space game with quite different physics =]

Still, the graphics and mechanics seem pretty neat, but I don't like the controls; Space seem somewhat alright, but it's the first time this LD I see Enter as the button to press to shoot. Personally, I'd prefer these to be mouse controlled (shoot left, mouse right? Or something?), especially with them cheating 360-degrees shooting bastards enemies, while I can only shoot in 8 directions. ^^"
