Excellent game! Simple, but well executed. Nice job :)

Really cool concept. Had fun! Pretty hard though.

Great idea of slowing time as you approach the speed of light. Enjoyable!

Good game! I think it's a good execution of the theme. It's a simple idea, but the game is still pretty fun

Would love it if the starfield was a little darker--hard to see the asteroids. :)

Simple fun game! I like it!

A nice idea and pretty fun. The stars in the background are too big and make it very difficult to see what's going on, so much so that even when I died it wasn't immediately obvious. Good use of sound and powerups.

Very good game mecanisms. Match the theme perfectly.

Simple concept but hard to play :)

Great idea to put science inside games.
Speed of light !
the two last waves are just impossible, I'm not good at saving the world.

the notion of speed here was really well made xD i once trid implementing a game like this (outside jams). pretty hard to go much far in the game, though, or I lack the skills needed.. lol

Enjoyed this one. Nice work.

Amazing idea and overall great game. The difficulty is a bit high, I could never get past the last wave of asteroids. Also the stars in the background are a bit distracting at first.

Pretty cool! Very nice combination of physics and game mechanics.

Awesome - not a lot better than a 2D spaceship game in unity ;) -you managed to put in some excellent mechanics, amazing job :)
