Also the playfield could be bigger and have zooming.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Controls are awkward though. Why didn't you use the NumPad? I know it's not there on some devices but just as an alternative. And what you use is somehow implemented badly because you can't use multiple keys at once and even there are cases when it doesn't react to anything...\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Btw, the online version isn't loading for me.
