I adore that the consequence for shooting is to create annoying obstacles for your future self.  That mixed with the natural increase of 1 asteroid per km makes for a good difficulty pacing.  There's a bunch of situations where I wouldn't have died had i shot an asteroid, but I didn't consider it mandatory fast enough.  I like that because shooting is a tool you should use, although it seems like a tool to avoid at all cost. \n\nI thought the trajectories of the incoming asteroids was done well. I like how there's varying angles and speeds. This game does a good job of not making the asteroids feel incredibly boring.  \n\nThe bug where a shot made while you are moving upwards moves up {and same with down}  is pretty funny.  Honestly this could be a sweet mechanic in a different game, since there could be an interesting skill to aiming those shots.   Obviously out of place here.  \n\n ","format":"md","likes":0,"spam":"N"},{"id":878664,"author_name":"Skleembof","author_uid":"skleembof","epoch":1665193516,"text":"Like others have said, the pacing felt great.
