Really cool idea. Unfortunately it felt really slow, so it was tough to ever effectively attack the other player. Maybe some ability to accelerate and brake could help give a user more options to try to manipulate or outmaneuver their opponent.
But those are some really nice thuds whenever there is a solid collision.
Oh wow, it took me a bit to realize how the movement was actually working, but then I realized how cool this would be if I had anyone to play with. A highly innovative duel game, graphics were cool, music was ok but got repetitive, and the game feels a bit too slow. Make the planets travel faster and I think you would have a niche gem here :) Good job overall!
