just my thought:
the stars background should move as fast as player movement to show how fast player move

Nice minimalist soundtrack. Once I figured out that the green outline in the minimap was me, I got home easily. =-)

Great Mood. Hard. The ending makes me tremble in fear.

I liked this! It's very relaxing, very minimal, and just hard enough to provide a challenge without being impossible. I had a lot of near misses before I finally got it!

Man that was difficult! The parallax with the stars threw me off because I always felt I was moving slower than I actually was.

This is very difficult and incredibly fun. You really get a sense of isolation, especially with the soundtrack.

Very challenging game: I managed to win after many many tries. The gravity effect is neat, but this game doesn't succeed in making it feel like gravity (Osmos does this, for example). I think it would be better if you were in orbit around the sun, having to adjust that orbit and use gravity wells to throw yourself around.

Good job for 48 hours though!

Lol, tried so many times - and then suddenly I just used one of those boost things and I got home. :D Took like 5 seconds.
You should have worked a bit more on physics, but sure - it's a nice game. I feel like it's TOO simple though. There's no rewarding feel when completing the game, other than getting some pixel-friends back home. :P

I obviously lack the skill to fly a spaceship... inertial navigation system bit of a nightmare, but pseudo-realistic. Nice restriction on engine firing/charges.

The void of space terrifies me. I managed to get home, but it was kind of a fluke. I worry that if I ever was put in this situation I would not be so lucky. 5/5 for instilling deep worry.

very challenging. I really liked the minimalist music it fit really well with void of space. well made.
