    Tried and immediately deleted. I just didn't like the controls at all.

    I like Silverline Artes games, they recicle a lot (and i mean a LOT) of things in their games and this is actually something like a mash between asteroid dust and space inversion but their actually pretty fun so I bought the IAP to give 'em some support!

    Ya, I deleted Asteroid Dust after playing this one. This is superior in every way.

    The joystick controls are a bit too 'fast' for my liking, but I'm getting used to it.

    Tons of options to adjust the controls, but even on easy, I can't find one that works for me. Traditional "Asteroid controls" are most effective for me, but even they aren't really working.

    Going to keep trying, but I'm not sure this one's going to last long. :(

    Gotta agree with you there. Really like the ideas in the game, particularly the merging of Space Invaders in Asteroids-like gameplay. Graphics are solid as well. But I'm also not really liking any of the controls. I actually wouldn't mind if there were dual-stick shooter style controls. But I guess that would mean losing the "floaty" acceleration-based mechanics of Asteroids.

    Maybe the rash of DSS games have just soured me on the old-style Asteroids controls.

    Free again. Still not terribly fond of the controls, but it is still a pretty cool game.
