Really quite a fun game, not that I've managed to get very far...

Great game, and I only got to 52 seconds. Nice and simple and easier to learn. Hard to master. Nice thing about the 'tader too. Well done!

karlin 2013-04-30 14:04

I really enjoyed this and the art was great. Best I managed was 28s.

It's quite fun, but a tad difficult, even after getting used to it. It would be more fun to progress through (shorter) levels, with each being a tad harder than the next.

Great Game man! Too difficult D: My best time was 43s (btw the first asteroid was the best! XD)

Great little game! I think you got teh difficulty just right! Its amazing how much that background sound does for teh mood of the game! Good art too!

Cool game, but I'm not fast enough.

comicsans 2013-04-30 15:49

Rocket # should go up every time you restart. ;)

neat little game ! nice art, funny intro (also loved the easter egg when you get "mashed" into the potato :P) and minimalistic gameplay that fits the theme pretty well. good job !

Rather difficult. I would have liked to be able to shoot at incoming asteroids to clear my path. Pretty nice, anyway.

Wow, I really liked this one, but I wasn't able to beat it. Funny alternate message when you hit the potato BTW...

Fast paced and fits the theme well. It's also really difficult. Nice space potato

Fun! Reminds me a lot of the iOS Hypership out of Control.

The movement was really fast, I think the best I did was 42s. It's still a nice game and kept playing for a few rounds.

Lawl this game is too easy, have completed it 4 times already on my 3rd hour of trying. P.S I'm asian.

Proof! http://imgur.com/NKKHxdh

Holy space potatoes, that's fast! It's quick, but fun. Kudos to whoever beats it. Nice job on the graphics, humor, and sounds.

ernyz 2013-05-02 15:18

Woah, that was pretty difficult O.o still, the game fits the theme perfectly :)

thebenjaneer 2013-05-03 20:59

Lol, I wonder who else found that easter egg?
( for the record, i thought there might be one there, and wondered what would happen, I'm not actually that bad at the game xD )

Nice game. Pretty Challenging

sudorossy 2013-05-04 00:05

Fun game. Love the 3D effect the asteroids give.

s0larcode 2013-05-04 18:15

So difficult, but in a good way!

messiano 2013-05-04 18:17

Loved the humour and gameplay! Quite addictive.

lightsoda 2013-05-04 18:34

Hard, 60 seconds seem way longer. The prize is totally worth it though!

loxo 2013-05-04 18:34

Fun to play, but quite hard. The story is really good too. Though, I don't like that the asteroid field is different every time.

jellycakes 2013-05-04 18:34

Really fun game. Definitely minimalist and kept me interested even though I kept dying. The end prize was definitely worth the pain though. Nice job!

granada 2013-05-05 12:13

Good game. Really hard to master. Loved the graphics and colors. Good job!

th3dz 2013-05-06 14:01

Very simple yet fun and challenging. Kind of like a bullet hell shooter with no bullets.

depp 2013-05-12 08:32

Cmon, give me some shields. Controls are solid and it's fun, but too hard.

exclamation_mark 2013-05-18 23:25

Bah! Ignore anyone who says the game is too hard! It's a video game challenge at it's finest! Hard, but fair and rewarding! Nothing ground breaking, but very well executed.

georgebroussard 2013-05-20 19:44

I really dig the art style. I never got very far but I think you could polish this up to be quite fun.

shawn42 2013-05-21 00:49

Very fun.. and HARD. Got mashed right away! 43 seconds was about my best. Fun game and I love your style of art.
