I can't download the game.

Sorry about that, fixed the links.
We just had a short "oh shit" moment about the name, but then realized the site of questionable repute has it the other way around. We meant to allude to "SpaceX"...
Strangest idea...ever.... amazingly hilarious :D
The physics feel pretty good and I really like the low poly graphics. Although it's pretty easy to mess up your hamsters set up and waiting for your inevitable failure is rough.
I have never known such hamstery glory. Great job with this!
This was awesome! I spent like 5 minutes trying to fly around with my crazy rocket contraption; ended up with 1428 points :D
Good Fun!
o.O
Funny game but.. just casual
My favorite entry yet! Got to around 3000... how high does it go?
We prepared up until about 3600, the milestone past the asteroid field, but it keep going and getting harder indefinitely.
Sadly, it appears we made the start of getting two boosters too difficult for most, judging by the highscore.
I really liked the concept once I understood it but I kept getting confused while trying to align my rockets during the count down timer. But I found myself wanting to try over and over to save my hamster.
This was such a fun concept. Great job, I had a lot of fun, though I must admit that I suck at your game. Kind of a Kerbal Space Program feeling to it. Really liked the particle effects as well
Now this is just great. 5/5
Crazy idea, hilarious result. Well done !
This is a pretty unique concept and it's kinda fun to play too. I found it too hard to keep going though and couldn't really get used to steering the hamster in the right direction. I feel like if the boosters gave you a more direct impulse related to where they should give you an impulse instead of primarily rotating the hamster this would be more interesting to play.
Works really good, thank you for the fun!
Brilliant. More hamsters in games, please.
Really enjoyed this one. Hilarious idea and in addition to the two button controls, the aspect of the "growing" space ship is great. Nice combination! And cute hamster.
I really want to love this game.. but for all the fun its just so punishing.
Ive lost track of how many times ive shot up that hamster only to collect only the red or blue or none at all. you cannot control the hamster if you dont have both color jets.
My suggestion would be to start with one of each instead of the canon.
minor annoyances are with the collision on the wall. sometimes you get stuck against it and instantly destroys all your rockets.
Good entry in general and id love to see further development with the above mentioned fixes :D.
Awesome game, very different :)
Hard, but fun.
A very good concept, I like the graphics and the online hightscore! Good job!
The hamster, no! Lol, this was very good!
nice little game, once i got the hang of it, it was not so difficult :) good work
Such a clever concept, and executed brilliantly. It was a bit finnicky attaching the boosters where you want them, but I suppose that was part of the charm.
I spent a long time playing this game. It was very fun to keep trying to get higher and higher. I think that the highest I got was somewhere in the 1000s (where the red things that do damage start spawning). Excellent job overall!
Very impressive entry! It's quite difficult to get that first good start, but once you have a few well-placed rockets, it becomes very addicting very quickly! Great job!
I.. was so close, with only one rocket and one shield then.. http://imgur.com/40lD3Pt
Love the challenge had a ton of fun! Great use of theme with growing you rocket collection + shields, and trying to use both type of rockets to make some crazy system to keep flight.
Brilliant.
Intense.
Inspiring.
really funny idea and gameplay!
love it :D
Very well done!
It reminds me of KSP, but more frantic. It is really hard in the beginning, but when you get the idea it is possible to get a descent score.
Looks nice (i love low-poly), and a lot fun to play!!
Good job!
So much fun, hit #13 on first try :D
Really fun and solid game. I wish I was better at it, but from what I could see there's quite a lot of content and nice items that you can gather to build your Hamster-spaceship thingy. Great stuff.
I kept calling it xHamster. The stream discovered my dark side.
Short moment of glory http://i.imgur.com/ZZ2xw8D.png
But I think I've seen 9k scores before? Does it clear periodically?
@YinYin: you are in fact the first person (we know of) to breach the 6000 cm mark -- even amongst us 3 developers and 3 testers. Congratulations!
We were not planning on clearing the highscore lists.
We're excited so many of you enjoyed the game this much and are considering further development over the coming holidays.
8222 cm B)
Really the most dangerous thing up there are those blasted rockets.
Hilarious. The time limit on placing the rockets really solidifies this game as something different than Kerbal Space Program. The additional to adding shields and additional obstacles was also a nice touch.
Awesome game! The way you assemble your ship on the fly is great. Only issue is that some times the new part gets a little buggy and the game freezes for a few seconds. PS: I made it to 10th place!
Another component (and respective new button - yellow/green?) I'd like to see added in a future version:
A projectile module/gun. This module could aid in getting past the asteroids (in addition to the shields) as well as clear areas too crowded with unneeded modules (shoot them instead of equip and destroy). Similar to thrusters it could have a basic and a super version (super also adding a bit of recoil per shot, but for that destroying other objects with fewer shots).
You can even add destructible walls blocking the path and out of reach button mechanics with this.
Great concept. It does feel it would work a bit better with a way to control mid air during your first shot, and if you actually had 4 buttons to build your booster.
Still, very fun! Well Done!
Really frustrating to get started out but once you've got a decent little device going it gets interesting.
