I kept finding ways on improving my run; slinging rocks from away, using the sun to speed up. All that while jamming to the sick background music.\nAnother plus point is the simplicity. From the start my goals were clear.\nAlso really enjoyed the game over sequence and the mocking \"do better\" restart button :smile: \n\nMy highscore:\n![supernova-score-2.PNG](\/\/\/raw\/f75\/c\/z\/2d50e.png)\n\nOverall, amazing entry.

After 50,000 humans saved, it seems that all the asteroids where realy far away. If they all got closer as time went on, it could be more chalenging. Overall, a good unique game - Congrats!

It's a neat idea that is simple to get into and hard to master. The spaceship is a bit floaty so it takes some time to get used to maneuvering around to find radioactive space rocks and flinging them into the sun. Maybe an additional mechanic to slow the spaceship down faster would make it a bit easier to control (an maybe help with flinging rocks into the sun?)\n\nThe sun expanding and pushing everything away when it dies was a really nice touch, great work!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"spthiel","author_uid":"1073354","time":"2020-04-20T15:23:18Z","epoch":1587396198,"modified":1587396198,"text":"Can only agree to swen, the acceleration controls feel really weird at first but add a lot to the gameplay, really liked it!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Thermacon","author_uid":"1142187","time":"2020-04-20T15:25:16Z","epoch":1587396316,"modified":1587396316,"text":"Controls were definitely difficult to grasp, but it added a nice challenge.

It looked very difficult at first, but when I started playing it was pretty clear how everything worked. I like the story you added to the game as well.

From the instructions to the art and music, it all is cohesive.
