:D Well, at least most people I give the game to like the graphics, I'm already turning into a big video gaming company Dx

Well, it's a game, I guess. Not sure what it has to do with discovery...

I like the graphical look, but the ship was a little wide. Also, the asteroids didn't always seem to register hits with the ship, and bullets often didn't disappear when they hit asteroids.
Still looks like it could be a fun game with some tweaking. :)

I totally missed the 'collect' part

I like the graphics, but it's short and not so original or related with the theme... But at least, your game's working :)

The graphics and audio were pretty awesome, although I think the game play could use a makeover.
The biggest problem with it is probably that you don't benefit from shooting the asteroids, it's easier to just dodge and wait for the artifact. If this were to be a pure dodging and collecting game (which I think would be cool personally) I would increase the speed of the asteroids and force the player to focus on dodging them, or give some sort of reward for destroying an asteroid.
Or, you could hide the artifact inside one of the asteroids so the only way to find it is to "search-and-destroy" the asteroid field. Mind you, just my opinions, so do whatever you think is best :D
Good start you got here, as I mentioned before I love the graphics style and the audio.

I enjoyed the first five seconds. Of course in the shoot'em ups I usually play, there's much more than asteroids, so my expectations are high. Maybe there was (or will be) more.

Thanks guys, my plans for the game are here, if you are wondering.

Whatever you did, something went wrong. The game does not work in IE8. It works in FF though.
It's a good start and somewhat playable. Hope you keep working on it.

Is it by design that you can fly off the left edge and don't need to dodge anything? =)

Audio and graphics are very good. Not too related to the theme though.
