I've got a Windows Machine, and cannot run OS/X only programs.
Will play and rate this when I have access to an OS/X machine in a few days.
An OS X only game... wow thanks...
Can't test it, I don't have an OS/X device ^^

It's a bit poor, but something can be done with this concept of moving.
@jayitinc please get off your high horse for a second and try to understand that this is the first game I've ever built. I would have loved to build for web but I didn't have the tools or the time to get them and learn how to use them. Don't have a mac? Ok, there are thousands of submissions for windows. Move on.
Oh, yeah, I have an OS X machine!
Cool idea. I like how the controls were minimized to only a click. This sort of thing could be made into the kind of mobile games that Ketchapp does well. If you polished the gameplay up, it would make a great app.
During gamelplay, I found moving around a bit difficult. Or, sometimes I felt as though the circle didn't go in the direction I always thought it was going to. Being able to change the velocity is smart, although maybe a bit difficult to get going fast. To be honest, I spent a lot of time trying to line up my shots in the same direction, so I wouldn't have minded if the circle moved at a fixed speed.
Overall, cool idea with such a minimal control scheme! Thanks for uploading!
@crucknuk, same to you. I know the game is nothing fancy. I didn't make it to win. I didn't even make it for lots of people to play. I made it simply to make it.
@Stuntddude, thank you for your interest.
@OctoStudio, thank you for the honest criticism.
Everyone else, your comments are pointless.
Thanks @danbolt! (yes, I realize this @username thing doesn't work ;)
"circle didn't go in the direction I always thought it was going to"
I wanted to experiment with physics but I realize it's tricky to get the hang of. You have momentum, so you can't turn on a dime. Thanks for the feedback. I had fun making it and would love to polish it someday.
