Asteroids Backwards by CurtisOfTheDark
Sadly, we were unable to finish the game, but considering this is our first Ludum Dare (defnitely not our last), and our first attempt at a game, it was a great experience! Original Music!
Grab the asteroids and fling them at the ship.

Sounds like a pretty cool concept. Would it have run on a tablet, or is it mouse-driven? Anyway, keep at the LD's -- they're an insanely good learning experience.

+1 cool concept. With a little ship AI (movin' + shootin') this would be fun.

Fun idea. The concept is there, and I think this would be a fun mobile game. Give the ship some awesome moves, and add a little bit, and this would truly shine. Keep at it!

The seeds of a fun game are there but are far from blooming. I didn't hear any music?

The music should be working (Just checked to make sure). Ya the goal was to eventually run on mobile (tablet and phones). The screen is meant to adjust based on platform. With some AI we could have possibly called it a complete game( for ludum dare purposes), but alas, it was not in the stars for us ;)

Would have really liked to see this finished, it sounds like a fun concept. The music was very nice, too.

Shame it's unfinished. In my opinion the music should sound more electronic and have less bass, to complement the minimal visual style.

Great concept, really a shame that you could not finish it. It would not need much to become really fun. The music was great however. Keep at it!

Like the music! Too bad that's pretty much all there is...

Definitely has some potential if you add some "player" AI. FYI, music worked on Chrome 23.0.1271.97 but not Firefox 17.0.1.

With some work, this could be a great game! I love the idea. :)
