Very nice!

I liked the art and also the background song gives a nice space vibe!

Very nice SFX "Yay! a new planet!" Whos voice is that? :laughing:

Gameplaying Tip: U may stand in a planet to garantee ilimited resources and drag the screen searching for the other planets, don't know if it was planned

Beside that, I think adding inertia and gravity would greatly increase the game playing! Maybe also a bouncing effect when been hit by the rocks.

Overall it is a very nice and quite well polished game, Congrats!

The game looks really promising, but sadly my Computer wont allow me to play it 'The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b)." Is anyone else experiencing this (and maybe has a fix)?

@pd-dev Can you please try to install a suitable VC runtime which is available at Microsoft's Site https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads-2647da03-1eea-4433-9aff-95f26a218cc0 - Does this help?

@mistergc That actually worked, thanks a lot! **To my feedback:**

The game is really funny (if not a bit slow), and the art looks really good. Took me a while, though, to figure out that the red border around the asteroids is the damage area and not the "must be in here to fuel up" area. Although: Is there a reason for the grey outline around the map? Why not just extend the background to fill the whole screen? All in all, great game!
