Mac version seems to work fine in Yosemite / 10.10.

"Easy" mode seems difficult -- the slow speed of the shots is frustrating, and finding the rocks is strangely difficult. Never found a crystal, though I did deflect quite a few rocks. Are you unable to look straight up, or am I confused?

I like the concept of balancing growth against instability, and something's weirdly fun in plinging those rocks away, but I'm definitely struggling with the controls.

Impressive work for so little time.

I find it impossible to get any overview of the incoming asteroids so not being able to progress. Nice job for short time though, hope you are feeling better!

Figuring where the asteroids are coming from very hard when your view is restricted so much. Also the player bullets could fire from bit to the side with some trail to give bit more feedback on the projectile speed.

"The Little Prince: The True Story". Really dig 50's retro future feeling in this one. From the dev point of view, I especially like how you've forced Player to depend on his hearing to detect asteroids incoming from the other side of the planet - really nice concept.

Good idea , but in WED version hardly playable . Cursor crawls beyond the interface is broken

Had to manually increase my mouse's DPI to play this as the aim sensitivity in this game was too low. I liked the idea of the rocks adding mass to the planet but it seems pretty difficult to actually shoot them.

This is a game that I think will be a lot better after some play testing and adjustment. Cool concept and look... controls are clunky and timing is off. Maybe some sort of RADAR function to help guide player to meteors. Great start to a game that should be unique and fun.
