Not so good

I regret buying this. The game gets boring very quickly. There's no variation from level to level. The enemies basically use the same stratagies over and over. It's somewhat glitchy, and the dev doesn't seem to care to patch it. Often the game will lag when a projectile is launched. When the game catches up, the path is drawn very quickly. This sort of ruins half the fun.

Brilliant mix!! Think: Archer meets Billiards

More than some simple shooter. Success requires a mix of math and strategy. The object is to fire rockets at enemies across a vast expanse planet-filled of space. The gravitational field of these planets affects your rockets, forcing you to employ some interesting firing solutions in order to miss the planets (and yourself !!) and hit your target. The physics are great, and the replay value is quite good.It's tons of fun to watch your shots looping around space, pulled hither and yon by gravity. The graphics are good if simple but the gameplay more than makes up for this in solid, glitch-free play. Expect an occasional momentary "hang" when the math gets intense...but it 's MINOR and doesn't affect enjoyment. If you like a mix of kinetics and billiards-like strategy, you'll LOVE this. DON'T MISS IT!

Very addictive!worth buy.

It has great physics engine.gravitational forces appear so real.
