For some reason, clicking on this game’s program file causes nothing to happen. In my task manager, I see the ‘fuck space’ process, but I have no way t access the shooty goodness!

@ Stallman Jr: NO U

But seriously, I agree that it’s average, a diversion and not much more and completely not up to the standard of Cactus… but hey, it’s a neat diversion. I wouldn’t call it rubbish, but then again, I’m not British.

Yeah, the missiles are an annoying way of artificially increasing the difficulty. It just means that moving around is punished by random instant-kills. The game wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for that.

MedO: I imagine that’s a pain if you’re ever using Emacs.

Also: This: The game really is RUBBISH people; why do you like it so much?

Z as a standard, non-configurable fire button is a standard annoyance for anyone who doesn’t have a “qwerty” keyboard layout. On the german keyboard, for example, Y and Z are swapped. Imagine the fun when you have to press X and Z at once.

However, it’s usually possible to swap to qwerty-layout by pressing “alt-shift” in any application, at least in WinXP.

Well, moving as little as possible has got me to the fifth boss so far, with no deaths to falling missiles.

Not at all. The solution is to move lots and lots. My falling bullet strategy is to wiggle left and right with maximum ferocity.

But but but. The only way to survive the missiles of death is to not be moving when they come. And there’s no way to know when they come, so there’s no way to know when to stop.

Edit: Ok, the solution is to never move.

Alternatively, you need to stop SUCKING SO MUCH.

Jesus hell. That is a thoroughly unfair piece of software.

There really needs to be some kind of warning about the light speed missiles of instant death.
