interesting idea, and the music fits really well, it's kind of hard to feel in control of anything though, maybe it would be fun if you could control the satellite a little bit

Works fine in Firefox and Chrome but doesn't seem to work in IE.

@mjb67 Yeah, I don't have proper access to a Windows PC, I doubt that it supports WebGL fully/at all

Unfortunately nothing appears here... Using the latest Firefox, but I suspect it's my integrated Intel graphics card that's acting up. Will give it another shot when I'm back in front on my desktop PC this weekend.

I don't think clicking the spaceships did anything in Chrome/Win7, at least seemed like it. Also, the gameplay felt mostly like a chore, and the launch sound was quite annoying, though the laser sound was okay. Music was also fitting.

Couldn't get it to work in Firefox or Safari... Soz

Full points on innovation for the use of the outside assets.

Very interesting concept, was a bit unsure about where the spaceships were but had fun blasting the Earth with orbital energy.

Can't fairly vote, works neither in IE9 or FF.

Well done on finishing a game for LD!

Found the gameplay a bit of a chore (waiting to press 1 button) and wasn't sure if clicking the spaceships did anything - didn't seem to...

Yeah I liked the idea here, though it was a bit fiddly to control.

Interesting and original idea but unfortunately boring to play since gameplay consists of nothing more than pressing space at defined intervals.

It would have been helpful if you'd mentioned that the key to transmit power is space.

Clicking the ships doesn't seem to do anything, despite the instructions.

I tried it in Chrome and Firefox, and it seems to be really buggy and jerky in both. Maybe that's just on Windows, or due to dodgy ATI OpenGL drivers, but other WebGL stuff works fine for me.
