Interesting idea!

Yay I saved the earth! :D
Nice concept ;)

Fun. I died once on clean screen, bug I guess.

oggyiu 2014-08-24 17:31

auto fire make the game so easy

ViliX 2014-08-25 03:18

Very innovative :) But when I press SPACE while the text is shown, it fires the black balls anyway.

Great game, I found the best strategy was to bore a whole into the sun and then spin.

kate-kligman 2014-08-25 04:40

Liked the concept, would like to see more levels.

This game was very simple but yes quiet fun. Thank you for this game!

A nice start, but a bit unfinished. You can still fire in the start screen, and I replayed a few times and never once failed to save the earth by just holding down one arrow key and the fire button so I spun around spewing bullets.

Spinning around spewing bullets is always fun though :)

A bit simple but I liked the color mix between the planets. Two bad the earth is not in the same type of graphics.

Interesting concept but kinda lacking in depth

hexagore 2014-08-27 13:52

Cute, very simple but kinda fun.

Nice little game. Very clean and simple and you get to save the earth (or not).

I like the earth death sound.

travischen 2014-08-28 06:58

Pretty neat!

jjhaggar 2014-08-29 12:21

"That's no moon!" XD Really original! :D Great game! :D

Yaay, I saved the Earth~! Now I'd normally wonder how it'll sustain itself without the Sun, but considering the technological advancement that allows shooting bullets at speeds above light (it should take roughly 8-9 minutes for light to travel from Earth to Sun), I wouldn't worry about that.

(it still lacks a bit of polish, though, especially with possibility of shooting at the beginning)

Although very simple, it was fun to play!

Hi there. Great tech. demo, good job learning the lib.

tkia_ 2014-09-01 03:37

Interesting idea, pretty cool gameplay. A nice little game.

jukimv1986 2014-09-01 16:39

I saved the earth! Adding enemies should be the next step, avoiding one from winning the game just by leaving the fire button pressed. Very good effort to get this done while learning a new programming framework. Impressive!

dohan 2014-09-01 17:49

I like how the enemies multiply themselves, but in the end, it's pretty easy.

lekochen 2014-09-02 07:32

Interesting concept!

lokarunith 2014-09-02 18:57

Nice and relaxing entry.

erkberg 2014-09-02 19:12

Fun, but a little bit on the easy side. Maybe you could make the bullets you fire destroy yourself to make things a bit more interesting.

erdnuss 2014-09-09 15:43

Hold down left arrow and space to win :D (I fear I might have played that game the wrong way). The graphics and gameplay were nicely simple.

brookman 2014-09-11 17:55

Nice little game. I liked the mood. But it's way too easy (just hold space and an arrow key to finish it).

skiddings 2014-09-14 00:57

Fun, but a little buggy, the first few times I tried to play it kept telling my the earth was destroyed after I had cleared the first level.
