The game itself was fun. The satire was amazing.
Sometimes you endure so much bullshit in this world that you cease to notice it. You grow weary of refuting it. You begin to accept it. Then something like this game reminds you, and the whole world lights up. You feel energized and fight on.
Thank you for this game, which was jaded enough to wipe away my cynical non-activism.

This is an excellent bit of animation. However, I must address that the moral squealing of socialists and ethical activists always sickens me.
The world is driven by rational self-interest. Yes, first world countries spend large sums on meat, cosmetics, ice cream, and other luxuries. But no, abandoning these would help nothing. You can bleat on charity endlessly, but the essential reality is that handouts do not help - and indeed hurt - prosperity. It may surprise you that the poor peoples of this world, at large, neither need nor desire your pity.
Economic success is not evil. Enjoyment of life is never reprehensible. Foreign activism has never and will never solve the woes of any nation; the third and first worlds are locked into their positions as agressed and aggressor. It is economics, not the first world turning to asceticism, that will feed the world.
Now I'm going to go back to eating this delicious steak.

In days when "freedom" has become a patriotic nothing word, it's refreshing to see a flash like this.
Basically, this is a Libertarian presentation. Hardcore socialists, anti-drug thinkers, and other types of social repressionists need not watch. However, this is worth seeing if you're at least moderate on the issue of popular sovereignty/social engineering versus individual freedom.

All the style in the world can't hide the fact that this is a pointless game. Not only is this space-asteroid idea so overdone that the game itself is superfluous, but a lack of levels, scoring systems, or any adequate reason for playing on, makes this game useless.
You're obviously quite good with flash. I like the music too. But this game design needs work.

I respect the graphics, but the content made me want to shove needles in my ears.

Not bad. I kinda doubt the series will be interesting - extended story-driven plots do poorly in flash format - but I'll root for you. Good style, servicable voice acting, and excellent taste in music (the Pillows in the background gave me FLCL flashbacks).

It's a good iteration of a classic design. Nothing too original, but very well made. Oh, and the title screen graphics were quite excellent. :D

I was expecting something just a bit more dramatic.

My favorite action flash game in quite a while. Superb art, original style, great music and sound, quick-paced gameplay, original levels, awesome character designs. Oh, and a bloodied teddy-bear charging through an infernal hellscape with gleeful abandon. I fivened.
