It wasn't until I finished it that I figured out how the theme applied to the game. I really enjoyed the mechanic of chipping away at something to get to what's inside. Strong work.

I enjoyed this !
Some more game mechanics and this could be a winner !

Like you mentioned, an objective would make this much better, but the art, controls, and physics are really nice!

Pretty good controls! I like the layers on the asteroids. You can't take damage though.

Could see this getting really interesting with a bit more
time for more game mechanics. Nicely done.

It's very pretty, and the way you have to destroy the asteroid cores is cool, but it really needs some kind of goal and difficulty.

I like the stronger explosions you get from the center of the asteroids

This game is sweet. I figured out that your lazers can bounce off of each other. clearing the asteroids and filling the room with lazers is it's own reward for winning :3

Really pretty and with a bit more time, would've been a great game. The only thing I didn't like was the steering mechanics; I would've preferred if it was more like asteroids in that spinning the spin doesn't effect velocity

Sweeet. Love the design of the ship. I always prefer a gamepad for this type of thing.

cool game - too bad there are no objectives or enemies - nice job

Very arcadey. I feel like I should be playing this on a cabinet in a dark room smelling of pizza and quarters. Nicely done. The ship looks cool, and the geometric-looking asteroids keep the screen looking interesting.

Loved the graphics! The collection mechanic made for an interesting variation.

I like your take on the theme - chipping away at a surface rather than going underneath it. The game is cool and the flying and shooting feels solid. Would like some actual objectives, though.
