Like the music! Unfortunately it kept glitching on me so I couldn't progress very far in it.

Cool game, it's a good idea. Physic is sometimes a little bit fail. Please vote for my game.

I like the music and the graphics, but the physics are very buggy ! Nice idea however.

If I find the time and motivation I will fix the physics so we can release a post-compo version.

Great music! Strange physics, but it was still possible to finish the game and only added to the challenge :)

Some glitches and very short. I liked the ricochet idea.

Two notes:
- It should be written somewhere that you need to press Enter to get past the start screen.
- The Linux version works fine.

Great music! Not sure if it really fit the gameplay... but hey, great music!
Also, I loved rocketing as far as I could into the sky by just shooting down. :D

Jumping seems broken, it seems to work sometimes at random, but not when I need it. Artwork is good and fits well with the music.

Music rocks! Control felt weird though.
