quite good idea and execution. it could do with a bit of something else to do and a visible cursor. and also, on quite a lot of occasions, I did not move the mouse and the trajectory was different. But, well made. i like physics based gameplay

Nice! It took me a while to understand how to aim, but since then it was fun.

Simple idea, fine humor and good design. However, I kept getting blocked because of satellites out of screen or trick shots too difficult to do without a better aiming system. I didn't reach the end (the last level I gave up on was the one with many planets in Y form with a nebula in the middle and a moving planet. This level drove me crazy.

Simply brilliant. Give me a visible cursor and I'd be even more happy.

@TackoramaLtd your tail is the cursor :) (don't forget to allow browser to turn off the cursor, otherwise nasty features like "I want to shoot but oh, I just switched to another window" will arise :) )

It was amazing, funny, physics, graphics, really amazing!
P.S. In my language "drvo" means wood, but no wood in the game ;)!

Same comment as made by others, lack of cursor made it bit more challenging. Overall still very polished and fun gameplay.

@Tosic in Czech language we have "dřevo" so kinda similar :) Not to confuse with Fasweigawa language though ;)

Wonderful sound and art, the assets you used are good enough for a full fledged game. From the few levels I played it seemed gameplay didn't differ much, hitting static satellites behind planets is tricky but doable. Hiding the mouse meant it was hard to hit the menu button. Enjoyed messing around with the Physics, congrats! :)

I liked the idea of the game, space stuff always intrigued me :)
But I think it is hard because i couldn't locate the mouse in your game and each time i got off the screen it putted me off the game, maybe you should have let the pointer in the game :)
other than that well done :)
