I would suggest the beginning to be as difficult as the game is at about the 45 second mark. Well done!"},{"author_name":"Funske","author_uid":"32974","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 1:06am","epoch":1450141260,"text":"Really fun, it was charming and I really liked the graphics and animations. While it was simple everything fit the style and was good. Suggestion would be to add music or sound effects but I understand you might not have time with the time limit. It got really difficult, but I like difficult games so it was fun. Overall I really enjoyed it."},{"author_name":"Soka","author_uid":"64553","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 1:11am","epoch":1450141560,"text":"Difficulty escalates very slowly so it becomes kind of tideous, keep it up tho :3"},{"author_name":"Integershift","author_uid":"25019","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 1:45am","epoch":1450143600,"text":"Definitely a cool game! The only downside is that the game gets pretty repetitive at around the 40-50 second mark. With some music\/better graphics, the game would be improved a lot."},{"author_name":"NotNewAnymore","author_uid":"65666","time":"Dec 15, 2015 @ 2:01am","epoch":1450144560,"text":"Fun!

I kind of wish the slider worked a bit faster too so you could like WOOSH WOOOSH all over the place, and over shoot asteroid.

At the beginning there aren't enough meteors to stay engaged and at the end there are too many to defend against. If the deflector increased in speed with the meteors, that would have made this more interesting to me.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Conceptually it's a nice job though. I like the clockwise \/ anticlockwise control scheme."},{"author_name":"ddoomus","author_uid":"59984","time":"Dec 18, 2015 @ 4:26am","epoch":1450412460,"text":"Not bad.
