It took me few tries to find out why I was losing at the very beginning for no apparent reason. Even half of a second would do it, to see where we have the Earth. Also, the collision system is glitchy. Many times hitting a fruit would end up with a fruit being on the other side of a moon and thus killing me. The idea itself is good, but where is *tiny* world? All I see is extremely large I suppose ;)

Made me laughing. Did the moon had any real relevance for gameplay? Nice graphics, very funny idea. Like the audio when hitting a fruit with the moon.

If our civilization dies and aliens arrive on our planet, I hope your game is not the one they find :D

(you should implement a save start so the player can figure out what happens)

I prefer the earth without moon, so we just avoid those fruits. Sometimes because of it a fruit bounces to earth. The sound make me feel nuclear war rather fruit blast. Weird idea! :)

I would try it if you had a Web or OSX version.

So challenging. Damn you, heat-seeking oranges and exploding lemons. :D Usually I die because I move into the fruits rather than the fruits hitting me, though.
