The pixelated globe was cool, and the elliptical orbits worked for me. Kudos for music and homebrew sound effects. "Ow. Ow." Love it.\r\rLike other players, I was a little confused about how to save people, but watching the score I figured it out.\r\rI did have a consistent issue; it would lock up after my guy was hit by around 3 solar flare particles, the game would lock up. This is using the Löve 0.8.0 OSX runtime.\r\rI think I can work around it by just hiding from the solar flares better, so I'll try that.
