Nice game really like the mechanics!

Awesome, love the orbital physics!

Fun game! Love the feel of the physics!

Amazing game feel

Game requires a lot of skill in aiming but still feels a bit random as hitting enemy bullets with your own requires mega-luck or mega-precision. I loved the concept, the orbital mechanics were relatively well-executed, only input in that regard is: slower speed for us noobs xD.

Nice art style, music was okay too. Liked it! Good luck peeps.

I wish I could turn faster to aim better. I spent a bunch of time playing this for how simple the game play is. Would be a lot of fun as a local two player game (but thanks for having an AI, while judging LD games I don't want to go grab another player to test out random games.)

Great physics!

So original game, and the physics are so good, very good game!!!

Fun game but I think mouse aiming would have been better.

Nice touch of humor at the end screens, it's like playing with Glados :). Once I learned to shoot at where they're going to be rather than where they are at, it became a real challenge! Nice work!

It was quite fun to play.

hah that was really cool. reminded me of playing that moon simulator game in encarta back in the days... but u battle so its more badass.. and it has smasher in the title.

Very cool. A couple of times the enemy planet's orbit was mostly off-screen, but other than that it was a lot of fun.

I don't know how to play this, but it was funny ;)

tesrym 2014-08-31 22:51

Dat music man! <3

Ah neat, An orbital shooter! Great work.

Would love to play this.. but I kinda can't because of Unity WebPlayer not working on Linux. Can I haz Linux build? :P

Neat little game - love the orbit functionality.

Was it luck or skill? Probably luck.

Haha good job!

Nice action/gravitational shooter mecanic!

Solid game. LOVE the game mechanics. It definitely changes the feel once you realize you can hold down the fire button to increase the initial projectile velocity.

This would be a great multiplayer game, especially if you could find interesting ways to expand on the mechanic with powerups, debuffs, and such.
