My top-score is 1:26, I dare people to beat my time!
the way to delay the line seems counterintuitive.
the grab function didn't seem that useful to me, it seems to attract smaller pieces of debris, are you supposed to be able to launch them at enemy ships? or use them to block? with things as hectic as they are, i didn't feel like there was any space to figure out how to use grab.
You said it only took 15h so impressive for less than half of a compo. Solid entry :)
