Though I was unable to devote nearly as much time as I would have liked this game jam, I still came out with something I consider quite fun.

collect stars and dodge the missiles to try for a new high score!

Decently fun. The steering was really floaty, so it was hard to score high. My high score was a 7.

The controls make this a good challenge. Even if you corral the missiles it still gets hard. Using the boost not as speed but as a fine control method is pretty innovative.

Love the control, it's so smoothy. Nice challenging game yet I didn't see too much points from the theme.

Yeah, the control is really nifty! I like how it feels to swoop around with the mouse -- I'm glad you clarified it was *dragging* the mouse that did it. Sometimes the boost spawns off screen and you have to poke in the dark to get it -- is that intentional? It can be fun but also a bit tedious. I enjoyed playing this, good work!

This isn't too bad! The controls are a bit frustrating due to the lack of friction and sensitivity (at least on this super-high-res Mac screen), but the core concept is enjoyable. I also thought the collider circle on the ship could be smaller for more close-call events. Despite my complaints about the controls, I do think the challenge is cool. Would have been nice if said controls wasn't for something intentionally action-packed.
