Really nice work so far, look forward to seeing the end result!

I liked your game so much that I clicked until the gray somewhat circle was gone. Wanna see the final outcome.

One more thing, when you go in the center and hit the blue box, the screen starts shaking heavily and nothing happens.

Wow.. that really makes me dizzy I cant play for more than a min or 2.

I like the idea and the main character is great :)

I'm liking how you used the theme, but I think you could've leveraged that a bit more. Things like making the enemy ships seem more "minimal" and having the planet a bit more decorated. Also, I think the player should be able to move faster to get to shooting the ships more quickly. Getting on the other side of the planet becomes even more cumbersome when it's been ravaged and its surface is uneven.

Cool game. I always thought that destructible pixel levels were underused in modern games.

Thanks for good comments, guys.
Final version was submitted. Enjoy :)

That is sweet firing anim.

Really fun and challenging! Great work :D

Cool concept. Very fun game to play. I like it

this one of the greatest game i played so far . and i loved the graphics so much :)

Love this game! The controls make you feel powerful, but the action gets intense and challenging! Nice work!

Fun shooter! I like how you can't jump and shoot at the same time.

38470.
It went from "oh, cool!" to "you are insane" very fast.

wow -- that was a greate game -- lots of potential -- great job!

Simple and fun...But I don't know where is the moinimalism

Fun game but got very hard near the end when trying to traverse the planet after it had been shot at a lot

It's a cool game, but it's too much like this:

Except that game is a lot more fun to play.

Smart idea, love the graphic style.

Overall, I thought the graphics and sounds were good, although I'm pretty sure the music is pulled straight from Battletoads.

shatterhand, wow, "Astro Break" is great game!

Sestren, yes, music from Battletoads. We pointed this out in the start screen.

Very cool - really liked the destructible terrain mechanic - it felt a little clumsy on the controls though, especially with lots of little floating pieces later in the round when more terrain is destroyed. Bigger jumps, better control of the character in the air [ and shooting in the air ] would be cool. Loved the death sequence crash zoom. :D

Haha, really fun and the sound works out great. Would be interested in more power ups and weapons, or maybe even a vs mode could be cool?

Forgot my score :| But it was a really cool game. I think it became harder too quickly. But anyway, Good Job :)

Alprog: My apologies, I missed that. Good of you to point it out, though. Like JohnnySix, I thought the terrain destruction was pretty cool, although I noticed after awhile it gets very hard to move around once "pillars" start to form.

128980. That was a lot of fun. It was difficult/impossible to keep all enemies at bay, but this makes sure the game doesn't last forever, so it works.

Nice game. Animation is great, good job!

105470. Fun game. The theme seems to be arbitrarily inserted into the narrative of the game, and not manifested anywhere else. Regardless, it plays really well. There were only a couple things I encountered that hurt it, in my opinion. The powerup that regenerates terrain necessarily has to be shot for the player to get out, which seems to turn it into a hindrance more than it helps. Was that the point? I also got stuck in a really unpleasant loop where I kept getting frozen by an enemy mid fall.

alts, regeneration of terrain is "bad" powerup (10% probability) We thought it is fun :)

Wow, it was quite fun. Jumping somehow doesn't feel right, it's kinda clumsy; the fact that you cannot shoot while jumping is a bit annoying.

You should explain that you can keep MB1 pressed. The game is great but the controls feel wonky and fudgy when the level geometry gets all messy.

Other than that, it is an enjoyable little game with a fantastic ending.

Amazing! 168690 was my score. I loved it all, except that you couldn't shoot while moving. Amazing work.
