Nice game, I really liked the graphics, but it was pretty hard to get the hang of, and I missed a fullscreen option.

Good work! I loved the spectral batter! Pretty challenging to keep click/dragging on the asteroid.

The planet explosion effect was very neat, would love to know how you did that.

I love the animation in this. Very hard to control, but fun.

Really like the art work and a very interesting setting. Controls were a little fiddly, and pretty difficult to get used to, but still had some fun. Being able to destroy objects wasn't really all that clear, probably needed a nice big straight away to make sure people "get it" the first time.

It took me a little bit to really understand how to control the asteriod, but once I did, it was pretty neat!

Gonna have to agree with the 'difficult to control' comments. It would probably work great on a touch sensitive screen tho. It would probably also work a lot better with a mouse if you weren't required to click on the planet to start dragging (so you could pick an arbitrary position and just move the mouse in whichever location you wanted your planet to move, relative to the mouse's initial position)

Big of a learning curve w/ the controls. Super pumped to see a space themed game in here! Great work!

It bugged out the first time I tried but upon refresh I was able to play. The controls are a bit frustrating, requiring you to continuously click on the asteroid and not just anywhere on the screen.

The idea of batting asteroids at planets is wacky and I love it. It was hard to control the asteroid but once I got the hang of it it was more fun to play.

This is fun, very unique concept.

Addicting fun game, Play in full screen for maximum control.

I really liked this physics/twitch based mini-golf style game. It's a bit difficult at first, but fun the whole way through, nice work!

Love the music and graphics. Was a little difficult to control, but very well done!

A indicator something like a simple line between the asteroid and the mouse would have helped a lot while dragging. Because I did not really understand at first how this is supposed to work.

But after I found this out, it was quite fun!

Love the concept and the art is charming! Controls could be easier but still a fun game.

very nice concept, handling the astroid was pretty hard on at the beginning but eased a bit after playing a while.

Stars can play baseball too? I Knew it ! LOVE the music and sfx (especially @ intro :D ). Pretty hard to play with a trackpad though. Bookmarked for some more more playing with a mouse later on.

Again, nice work man!

Its a fun game but kinda hard to get the controls down.

I love the concept and graphics, but for me this was hard to play on my laptop's touchpad. I'll try with a mouse tomo :)

This is the funniest game I have played thus far. The intro reminds me of going to the arcade(like 20 years ago) back when it was amazing to hear a voice in a video game... like "blades of steel". Good show. If you don't know about blades of steel : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fDwQh-RGCHI

Really interesting game and a nice challenge!

Interesting game. The constant clicking and dragging makes it really difficult. Good use of the theme though.
