SPECTACULAR. SUBLIME. LOVED IT. CAPS LOCK MEANS I'M SHOUTING, SHOUTING MEANS I REALLY LIKED IT.

someguy22 2013-08-26 22:32

Simple but great style! :D Though you should probably keep in mind not all people have working mousewheels ;) I haven't really seen the mousewheel used as the only control in a game before haha. Also the particles could use some more effects... But otherwise cool idea

jhelle 2013-08-26 22:32

Simple fun and elegant. Good job :)

megamasterx 2013-08-26 22:33

I had way more fun with this than I think I should have. NICE!

stenol 2013-08-26 22:50

Lol. Very funny game !!

nilo 2013-08-26 22:58

Hahaha, for the first time, I played with my mouse upside down like with a spring powered car! =)

tork 2013-08-26 23:00

Lol, fast easy and fun :)

daoyster 2013-08-26 23:00

At first I was like, this is a simple game. Then 10 seconds was up and I died of laughter. The music was perfect and the game play was simple. It made my day hearing the people fling away at the end.

agrdev 2013-08-26 23:03

Thanks for feedback! Glad you enjoyed it! :)

beardbotnik 2013-08-26 23:03

Short, sweet and hilarious. Think it's the first LD27 game I played that had humor in it. Good job!

umu 2013-08-26 23:05

Hah. OK. That was cute. Well produced.

I wonder if this is an area where those gaming mice come in handy? I got about 4.5 mil

paulsinnett 2013-08-26 23:11

Great fun. Nice use of the mouse wheel!

mr-greenhat 2013-08-26 23:25

I love that it is such a simpel game. Good job!
I used the trackpoint to scroll at first, because I wasn't in reach of a mouse. If I do that, I don't have to do that much. It feels a bit like cheating I guess :P On the technical side, I can't seem to be able to see the whole screen when I run it on Ubuntu.

krides 2013-08-27 08:34

Good stuff! What you haven't accounted for is that I have a scroll wheel that can spin really fast for 5 minutes without any help from me :P

firezenk 2013-08-27 08:38

Wow! 2001 space oddisey for the bso, winner!

Great little game, lots of fun for something so simple and silly.

killmonday 2013-08-27 17:05

Nice idea =]

broxxar 2013-08-27 17:08

Had to give a few more tries: 1,677,561,472!

Get those leaderboards up ;)

wombatica 2013-08-27 20:06

Most satisfying game ever. LOVE IT!!!

sephiroth87 2013-08-27 23:08

I don't seem to be able to finish this game, the timer reach 0, i see particles (people?) being launched from earth, but it just keeps spinning, and nothing else happens :(

william_edwards 2013-08-28 05:27

Each time the world stopped spinning I felt slightly weightless :)

agrdev 2013-08-28 08:25

Sephiroth87, just fixed this bug in the web version.

1fir3 2013-08-28 08:56

This is crazy :) i think you have to release iOS and Android version.....

unixxnova 2013-08-28 09:00

Very fun minimalist game :)

lashiz121 2013-08-28 18:01

good job

otus 2013-08-30 20:07

Very, very funny xD

Simple and effective.
Great work!

mortus 2013-09-09 13:19

Neat concept! And it would be not all that great if not the title of the game! :D

Btw, after I figured out what's the best strategy it was easy to achieve insane score of 41,168,740,000. Didn't know there's so many. :D

zap 2013-09-11 14:34

Ha ha, I love this!
So simple, yet so good. Awesome use of mouse wheel. Perfect selection of assets (although a little bit of a shame that it appears none are of your own creation).
Brilliant!
