Cool music! I like the basic concept too: who wouldn't want to shoot cheeseballs at the Moon and
then lasso it. But even with the achievements this is boring after a minute, sorry. I think some
polish would help sell it. Animations, sprites... It's not even obvious that the boxes at the
bottom are achievements. They don't feel like awards at all, due to the low-key presentation.

So bloody addictive!! :) Great job!

Not bad at all for the time it took, but it would be vastly improved by having a win condition.

It's quite fun. I'd like it more if the score was more obvious, like -1 for every miss, +10 lasso,
+5 for crashing a moon... something like that.

Interesting idea, and the game is somewhat relaxing. I like the achievements as well. There
really isn't much else to the game, though.

Promising start of something, and the whimsy of the cheeseball gun is amusing, but it's
somewhat lacking in significant gameplay

It needs nicer graphics. Some problem with laso gun. It catches moon even it it does not touch
it.

Good game idea and realisation of this idea especially considering you did this in two days.
Would be nice to have some sort of time limit or other restriction to set more of a challenge.

I had a good time with this game. I like the gameplay and was actually hoping there would be a bit
more when I figured it all out. I think that with some sounds and a little graphic flair and new
weapons it would be really neat. Overall, a solid entry!

Needs something more to make it fun

I'm sorry I did't find it fun or innovative. Best luck next time.

"This was quite an interesting game idea. I liked the idea of bringing the moons into range by
adding to their mass. This is a nice twist on the usual shoot-to-destroy kind of thing. I also
like the idea of the lassoo, although it didn't exactly feel like a lassoo all the time!
Sometimes the collision detection was a bit loose - it looks like you are colliding with a
bounding rectangle and not a circle. Given that you have moons it shouldn't be too hard to fix
that. Overall quite a nice game."

Awards kept it somewhat entertaining. No SFX and the GUI looked more like debug info.

I enjoyed playing this. I especially liked the physics of the balls.

The simple controls and graphics belie a fun and fresh core mechanic. Shooting cheese balls to
harvest moons is a wonderful creative idea. Where the game falls short is in progression and
variety, but I feel like with a bit of balance this could be achieved. You just need it to get
harder as you go along.

I didn't understand this game, what is goal? can you lose? In my opinion isn't enough. The
credits (that i didn't understand either) are at least embarassing but they didn't influence
my judgement.

Great idea, quite good fun. Did get a little dull after not long.
