Since there is no penalty for just firing as much as you possibly can its a little too easy.

I was able to hold A and spam the mouse click, and I was invincible. Maybe limit fire rate?

Why can't I stop shooting??
I love the sound effects

Fun little game, only problem I encountered was the sound effects stopped playing after about 5 seconds into the game.

The sounds effects were hilarious, I'll give it that.

I quote Wampus,
At the end i have headhace xD

Sound effects were great, and the game plays well. I also think that there should be some penalty for firing shots. Huh, but I couldn't stop playing until level 11 (433400 points), then I gave up - and what the hell man, I suck? ;p I did better than everyone! ;)

Thanks for the comments! At the end of Saturday the game was really hard - my wife play-tested it and it took her 5 goes just to kill something without dying. So I really dialled it back and maybe it was a bit too far. Personally I find that constantly spinning and shooting I still miss a lot of stuff, but whatever works for you :)

An interesting slant on Asteroids, but as others have said it was way too easy to just rotate and spam lasers.

I love the missile sound.

the gameplay could have been better in the initial phase.

It's a little on the easy side, yes, but that's not necessarily a bad thing--it does make it slower paced, though.

"Probably won't work in IE" I laughed
Pretty fun, though a slow start

Too easy
shooting sound rules :)

Simple and funny, too easy at the first levels.

High score of 6500! I didn't know that if it hit the player you insta-died :/
Cool game though, just needs a surreal soundtrack for ld perfection.

Awesome take on space invaders theme. With some more polish and some tweaking of the difficulty, this could turn into a pretty addicting game. Nice work!

This was fun enough for me to play four times. I tried different browsers (Firefox was a little less smooth and the high score list didn't appear after the prompt). Overall it was good. The "hold A and spam mouse" technique, which is called "death blossom" from now on, doesn't work because the bolts are too far apart. Either that or I can't spam clicks enough. But I did manage to break the sound effects in Chrome. I don't think that's your fault -- I closed the tab and came back and it was still broken.

I'm with stromchin -- couldn't stop shooting.

Neat game. I got really dizzy after a while though @_@

Running around and shooting was my tactic ;p The planet could have some more graphics. playing it was fun

I really liked that the game was spinning around you. Fun game!

Oh god this was fun! Loved the sounds!

Well. Apparently I suck.

fun and funny game.

piumpiumpiumpium nice game :)

Hmm, where have I seen this game before. =p Oh yeah, I wrote one too (I wouldn't normally mention that but @wibblymat mentioned it first!) Nice take on the arcade space shooter. I didn't immediately realize that big red bar was a health bar or that the aliens shot when they got close, I like that mechanic. Loved the sound effects. Could've used faster or more aliens, or a limit on the bullets.

Liked your sound effect, but the idea wasn't particularly original. Still, nice job.

(idea of the game)

found the sound a little annoying, but not too bad, the controls are weird though, it's strange having ot use the mouse to fire but keyboard to rotate, would have made more sense for it to be a key. Also when rotating it seemed almost completely random how far i rotated when pressing the key, sometimes it would move a tiny bit, sometimes a full half rotation of the globe. Cool and all still but that made it a little hard to play.

HTML5, yey! No install! And it's actually a nice game! Thanks for making judging fun :)

Based on the screenshots I wasn't expecting much going in but I honestly found the simple game mechanic, pew sfx and classic/retro explosions charming :D
My only complaints would be that it's really slow to level up and too easy to cheat by just spinning and firing.

@Wampus : I think the penalty is the sound of firing ^^ LOVE IT !
Become really interesting after the first levels :) Very too easy at the beginning.

Love the losing sound. I like the spinning mechanic, I just wish there were better graphics and maybe some bg music.

Pew pew pew pew! :P Nice simple game!

"You suck!" hahaha.

Good game, but too easy! I felt like Rambo :P Still enjoyable, so good work!

Its fairly slow, but I love the old school graphics :D

piu piu piu! That sound was funny. The game was pretty slow paced though, you have to wait forever for the enemy ships and I found out just running to one direction constantly and shooting repeately was pretty effective. Cool game but could have used some more speed and content.

It was a bit easy and after a while a bit repetitive. But sounds and graphics were on point and I still played it for 15 minutes straight so great job!

Very nice, quite easy to pick up and play.

Oof, I'm really dizzy after playing this. It probably would work better if there were a radar indicator in the corner and the screen didn't spin the way it currently does.
