I liked the idea of the golden asteroid as it had an interesting spin on the game. The voxel style seemed to work very well for this type of game.\n\n### To Improve:\n\nThere didn't seem to be a way to get rid of the debris. I also didn't like the gauge because it was rather instant and I didn't get the feeling of the ship gradually getting worse. Perhaps a more interesting approach to it would be to make the spaceship slower with more asteroids and have certain types of debris that can kill the player, meaning that the more debris, the slower the player, the easier it is to die.","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Joel Rochon","author_uid":"1059947","time":"2017-12-05T19:07:50Z","epoch":1512500870,"modified":1512500870,"text":"This is one of the best looking games I've seen so far.

Well done!\nHowever, I'm not completely sure you respected the theme. I understand that the more you have asteroids, the harder it gets. But in your game, since the beginning, I felt completely surrounded by obstacles. I don't have any sense of gradation in worsenity.
