Arrrhggh soo hard! I only killed one after like 4 retries! Cool music. Didn't feel like I had much control of my aim... Great job nonetheless! :D

it is using the arrow keys...it's a little tricky to use

Ugh I wish I had KNOWN that clicking more than once reset your missile ;) overall nice game though.

music is fit, but control is too tricky

Dodgy controls make this game unplayable. Also, the music wasn't working on my mac, using chrome.

Yeah the controls are plain horrible, especially to move the cursor horizontally x) And the fact that there can only be one bullet at the same time is another weird difficulty added on top of that.

The graphics looks quite good, unfortunately the gameplay itself is insanely difficult and not really fun.

Ah, glad it's just not me who wondered if the arrow keys were working. Nice idea for the game though.

The controls are too irresponsive! It's a cool concept though!

Promising graphics, and it steers like a death star on death star too!

The control is so tricky. xD

Good: Nice graphics and a good interpretation of the theme!
Improve: I did not manage to hit any of the ships :/ Better controls perhaps?

The controls were really unresponsive though love the graphics.. I see a job at ILM in your future, hmm?

I like the theme.
I don't really understand how to move (I use the arrow key ??)

Loved the visuals on this. Gameplay is a bit weak. Would have preferred to control the reticle with the mouse. Aiming was just about impossible, although I was able to score a few hits.

Was your intention to make gameplay more difficult in order to simulate the difficulty of operating a death star? That is an interesting idea, but the controls need to be improved.

I feel like this is such a shame, because this game has everything to be so awesome! Please work on the crosshair, make it easier!

That aside, nice idea : )

Yes, I agree with you all about the controls. My first implementation of the crosshair was way to easy to use thus I increase the difficulty a little too much. I didn't consider the mechanic to be a bug and was trying to stay within the rules of the event. I will try to update my game as time becomes available.

Thanks for all the feedback ;)

Didn't work for me. I'm assuming it needs webgl enabled?
Spacehunter
