I like the aesthetic, it's a very nice looking game. And the idea to type in the menu is pretty clever and surprisingly intuitive.

From a gameplay perspective, it could be an interesting concept but I'm finding that I die to easily. I think if you increased the amount the ship moved on every key press, it's be great.

Good job though!

how do you dodge the asteroids that are going to collide head on?

@RyanNielson Thanks. I might do a pos-compo edition where I solify the game's balance. :)

@Gallefray These asteroids have a letter on them which can be pressed to destroy them, more or less like in Typing of the Dead.

Wow nice job with this one! Once I figured out how to destroy the asteroids, I got myself on the leader board :]
