Very neat game!

More than one life would be nice, though :-)

Don't forget rating other games to get more ratings!

really cool game! i wish it wasn't insta game over from one hit and maybe something that tells you that you should hold your mouse down since i got about 4 gameovers before i understand what i was doing wrong- otherwise really neat game!

I liked how easy this game was to pick up and understand, but still so enjoyable! I feel like I could spend a large amount of time playing this on mobile! You should consider porting it! If this game did not have a click-and-hold element I think it would feel a bit smoother, but other than that this was a great submission! Well done!

Cool idea. I got confused on the WebGL version because I had to hold the mouse down to play - lots of early deaths. I thought the graphics were neat, although the planet in the middle was confusing with all the moving parts that you didn't have to dodge seeming to overlap with the parts you did have to dodge. The math problem difficulty got pretty high pretty rapidly after some early easier rounds - my best score was 130. Nice work! I enjoyed playing it.

Holy POLISH, Batman.
Well done. That was a simple and repayable game with repetitive, but still delightfully catchy audio xD

The music, sounds, and graphics make this game feel really polished. The gameplay is simple and intuitive. The problems before I hit 100 were very easy, but after that they were too difficult to quickly work out. I wish the difficulty ramp up was a bit more gradual.

Great work :)

Neat little game.

Great job of tacking a simple concept and polishing it.

This sort of felt like the ship levels in math blaster. I think you did a good job at making it difficult but not too crazy or unfair. While mixing different resolution bothers me I think the art is really good. It might have been nicer to have the math problems appear at the top of the screen or something and disappeared after they are over because it got a little confusing at first if I was supposed to do the bottom one or the top one. My best score was 500

I had some problems with the web version, it was cropping the numbers so i couldn't see or click them.

It was easy for me to accidentally confuse the spinning things in the background for objects that I needed to avoid. Maybe change the color of them so they seem further away? Other than that, nice little game. :)

I can't believe you managed to make a fun math game for LDJAM :) Great work!

A fun math game with good challenges. I loved the gameplay loop. Artstyle is very good and consistent. I liked the sound effects as well. It is very simple and interesting. Also seems complete, which is very rare for a jam game,
well done!

NO! I cannot reach 1000! Very cool- played on Surface 15" in portrait mode. Love the cocktail format! My hand was my worst enemy (blocking my view) Thinking maybe a higher contrast between the background and the asteroids/enemies would make it a little more enjoyable? It took me a while to figure out what was killing me. Overall- awesome work! Thanks for the game!!!
