Quite good.
Top points for the unique style of the game and overall quality. Only gripe I had that would have propelled this to a ten is the "blandness" of the background and graphics. Adding more colors would fix this easily. And, like others have said before me, an upgrade system would have been spectacular. The music fits the gameplay superbly and gives it a "spacey" feel. Enemies are well rounded. Overall, a wonderful game.
Tips:
-The lined border is not for show. If you look closely you can make out three distinct white lines. Bouncing off of the edge will cause one of those lines to disappear and propel you towards a random star. If you hit the edge when all three lines vanish, you'll die.
-The mouse is meant to fool you. While it may be easy and simple to merely drag the mouse over a star and click, that can also be a hindrance. The further you drag the mouse from your current position, the more it affects the accuracy of your next shot. There is a solution to this: you may notice a white line extending outwards from your position, facing the direction of your mouse. Dragging your mouse close to your position and using the dotted line to line up your shot will not affect your precision.
-Meteors, the large, speeding black dots, target your position. If you stay in one place for too long, a meteor will come along and kill you. If you see a meteor, immediately jump to another star.
-The laser powerup is NOT a targeting laser, like some might believe. IT IS A WEAPON. Guide it onto an enemy and watch them explode.
-Think about your first shot. You can move the mouse as far as you want to, without any negative effect to your precision. Use this to target far-away stars in order to rack up some major points. If you have more of a strategic mindset, you can use this benefit to place your self in a beneficial position to quickly move between the stars.
-The super trails powerup lets your trail destroy meteors. (Obviously.)
