This game needs instructions of some kind. it's very difficult to figure out exactly whats going on, or even what the goal is.

I wasn't quite sure what I was doing. I started pressing buttons, and then I blew up. I don't think I discovered much. You're supposed to blow up, right?
Hahaha I think maybe the commenters are missing the point? Its like being hurled into the future on a starship and you see all these buttons flashing WARNING and you have no idea what to do oh god!! Fun game.
This is the most confusing thing I have seen in a while. I guess that's the point, and it works! But I still died.
Pushing buttons is indeed fun. I think I blew up. It was fun. I haven't had anyone push those buttons in a while.
Decent concept, and the functionality was decent (I think?) if everything was indeed working, which I can't be sure of as the "game" is completely wonky. Fun? Not for me, but it was a nice idea. I like your use of audio! The polish and audio alone kicked my game's butt.
Good idea making discovery of what the buttons do the game ;)
Still quite confusing, but here it's quite good. I'm not sure what happens when you "win". It seems for me when the image on the bottom right shows a blown circuit.
This reminds me of the Apollo VGC(sp)... very cool. Only thing is... Now I want a window to see space! Other than that, a really cool idea and well-executed for what it's supposed to be.
This is weird, couldn't figure out the game. I just randomly smashed the buttons. Is the game somehow generated to be different each time?
I discovered that if you lower your shields before the "incoming" thing arrives, you will die! But then nothing else ever comes :(
I think the reason people are having negative reactions is because of the psychological impact of being virtually killed several times.
@hdon: I thought the goal of the game was to destroy the device...
I played it once and succeeded in doing this by doing random stuff.
