I can't seem to get it to run here, Windows XP Pro. It doesn't crash per se, it just starts and the window never fills in.

Nice game! I really liked the limited stop, and the levels are pretty fun to play.
It runs perfect on win 8 64bit

@skittles: do you have OpenGL support?
@lemming: install java.

Something about the way this was put together was exactly right. Nice little game!

(OS/X version.)

Good fun game!

thanks! glad to hear the OSX version actually runs, and that it's actually any fun :P

I'd prefer it to Asteroids any day. Very smooth, well done

Controls are very responsive and the game is very cool and just fits the theme. Nice work.

Cool, second spline game I've come across. Really nice design. Congrats on your 1st game!

A good game, I probably wouldn't have bothered with the stop & rod shooty mechanic though, the basic gameplay was enough.

An excellent game. While the floaty motion was a tad annoying, I think it also contributed to the overall mood of the game. My only solid complaint would be that there's not much difficulty once you start going back.

Nice one. It's actually a lot of fun to turn around at the start of a level and head down real fast. I'm not convinced there isn't something down there!

Very nice! The particle system and noises add something very cute to the game. The challenge curve is very good, and I'm a sucker for this type of motion.

@dark yay!

@game @700 yeah, the red was a little tacked on, i thought it would be a good idea to make it more challenging

@angelk :D i like low-friction moving too

@heuer there's nothing! i promise!

Nice, it's like Lunar Lander or Asteroids, but in a maze.
Very challenging/frustrating, but I think that's the point!
Easy to get impatient and try to go faster and more carelessly through on subsequent runs.
Good work!

yay! glad you liked it!
