    Really fun gravity based game. The goal is to time jumps between asteroids, gathering collectibles as you do. Cute artwork and a decent little story. An enjoyable time to be sure. Just a shame we've seen no more from Jonathan Mulcahy since this one.

    It's an obvious mobile port, but it's still quite fun. The graphics are cute and not overdone. The quiet piano soundtrack lends an air of serenity about things which can be quite misleading as you fly into a rage after missing that just jump for the tenth time.
