### 2/5 — Just when I was getting the hang of it.

*2012-05-11*

Crashes on long orbits.  Pretty much negates the object of the game in the long orbit modes..

### 5/5 — Awesome game

*2012-02-05*

Very original, challenging and a lot of fun!

### 5/5 — Great Game and tech support

*2011-09-18*

5 stars all the way. I really hope that they do more with this. The basic premise of this game could be expanded upon.

EDIT: The game did not save your high scores (at least not on explorer mode). The creator went out of his way to contact me to get this issue resolved. If I could give 10 stars I would just for that kind of dedication to one's project!
