I was unable to start the game, receiving this error - http://i.imgur.com/3HmaFPG.png.

Fun concept! This has a certainly unique game mechanic, so that was pretty cool. Good job!

varun: reuploaded with dll i suspect was missing, give it another try ;)

Ultra satisfying spraying with four planets at once!
Later on I get completely overwhelmed and only manage to hold on to one planet.
Very cool!

If the game progresses to quickly (all your base are belong to enemies) You can change DIFFICULTY_GAIN in config.txt to smaller value for smoother change. Cheers :)

I have the same problem as varun to run the game, same error.

Very fun game but I won't lie, I had no idea what I was doing for most of it.

Pretty solid action game! Really loved it!

Im still not entirely sure how you get to gain new astronauts to shoot with!

This was fun though, once it started to pick up. Maybe id add some sort of dotted line showing where your astronaut is about to jump once you disconnect from a planet, maybe highlighting the current target? The game looks really cool when you're shooting.

Cool game, from the instructions I thought it would be very similar to mine :)

Nice game, couldn't switch worlds but did manage to spawn a new world. Loved the upbeat music!

Wow... just.. wow.. BEST GAME I'VE PLAYED YET! Woooh! SOOOOOOOO MUCH FUN. :P

I did find an interesting little glitch where I could get more than one mean astronaut and connected planet at a time. I tried to get a whole bunch of them going... but then the HORDE showed up and there was just so many I was forced to spin in circles and constantly fire to drive them off...

(And the little astronaut popping his head up at the controls screen was gold. I only which I could give this 6 stars. XD )
