I like the soundtrack and the effects of the threats are nice. The art style gets the job done, but the particle effects from the ship are cool. Ship controls kinda weird with the mouse, but gets the job done as well. I used to love these kinds of (landing) games as a kid, so I commend you for making one.

Adorable =D
I really enjoyed the mechanic once I realized how it worked. Might have made monster noises while destroying the settlements.
Really loving the minimal graphics, here. Bit frustrating how easy it is to come down to hard on a threat, but fun nonetheless. :)

自分の船をぶつけて基地を破壊する、良いアイディア!
音楽が奇妙に感じられた、しかし遊んでいる内に最高にクールに思った!
私はこれが好き!

The mistake to post in Japanese:-p
To destroy the base by hit his ship, good idea!
Music was felt strange, best thought to cool while you are but playing!
I like this!

Very good graphics, gameplay and sound! I have to say I found the mouse controls hard and really wished for keyboard controls though.

game machanics weren't clear for me, an in game tutorial would be nice
otherwise nice retro graphics (the burning fuel particles were superb)
The graphics are so cool ! And the music is even better !! And the concept... Well you know it's pretty cool. But man, dat game !!
Fun twist on lunar lander. I feel like the goal could be made a little clearer in-game, but once you know what to do it's a lot of fun! Great work!

Took me a while to understand of to properly use the spaceship, maybe it's not a mouse type of game?? I'll think a bit more about that.
Nice music and sfx, specially the increasing tone when you destroy the buildings.
Good use of the theme, and nice effort with the graphics and sound. The controls are very odd, it's strange to have the mouse do different things above/below the ship especially as the ship changes altitude. I found that I often flew straight through the buildings instead of knocking them over, which made it really hard. I love the little green men that make a panic sound and run about!
