Controlling the rotation to launch an asteroid is quite hard. It seems to work in noticeable intervals instead of smoothly on every input. I had to unplug the controllers before starting the game. Otherwise I could rotate using the right thumbstick. (Two XBox 360 Pads) The teleportation sound is a bit too loud and tedious for every time one pops off the screen.
Shading and meshes look ok, though I had the feeling that the whole render image was stretched. You can see it in the screenshots too, like there is a fish-eye effect, but just for the asteroids. It seems off, but maybe that's just me.

Other then that this is great! The explosion of an aircraft looks fantastic, the sound is entertaining, if a bit repetitive. If the rotation was more precise I think I could get a lot of playtime out of this.
