Wow, that is a tough one
The graphics were a little weak, but the gameplay is tight. This is one difficult game, but it is worth it. It also is slightly addictive.

Not that bad
It was actually kind of fun but I have two problems. The first is that the ship is to big. The second is that when I leave the place where I start I die right away because there to close. Make more area to play maybe.
Different at least
Not a bad game, but you should really put in the instructions HOW to kill the asteroids. I got game over a few times and was about to quit when I accidentally killed one. Kind of an important thing to know. (you have to get the asteroids to hit the fire coming from your ship, for anyone that hasn't gotten it)
meh
it was ok, graphics not bad but not great the physics are a littel wierd to ger used to but it was kinda easy, but to tell you the truth i'd rather shoot lazer beams muahaha
Interesting Game..
It was a good idea for a flash game, but had a lot of flaws that really cut on my enjoyment. Such as:
- No interactivity in music. There was no mute button, nor other choices of song. Just an annoying loop.
- The graphics. I saw that you even got a separate person for these, but they were still disappointing. It looked like you got most of the stuff from Google Images, and even then the background seemed bad quality. Also, there could be a different level for each background?
- The controls were annoying. Though you might have meant for it to be hard to get used to, it's best if it's just simple. This might have made a better game if you could only go left, right, up, and down, and no annoying controls (pacman type controls.)
- The HitTest you used was also irritating, I could get hit, or the meteor could hit me, when it was no-where near even touching it.
- The Menu was good but seemed plain, and you could have added a glow effect or an outline to make it more readable when you died, because you couldn't see it properly with the background.
It had potential, and I played it for a few minutes, but it had a lot of flaws and bugs.

All good points, apart from your criticism of the graphics - the space image may have come straight off NASA's (excellent) image bank, but I hand-drew the spaceship and asteroids in Photoshop. So there. Nyah nyah nyah. But no, seriously, we'll consider the rest of your points in a possible sequel. Thanks for your feedback.
