Galactic Miner

2/5 due to controls (you move slowly when you're close to the mouse). Would change the rating once the controls are fixed. Hope that happens while this is still on the front page, before it gets lost in the sea of 3-star-and-below games.

Good game, but I would recommend the following change: Right now, ship speed is proportional to the distance between the ship and the mouse. Don't do this, it's making ship control very sluggish. Instead, have the ship move towards the mouse at a fixed, constant speed that depends upon upgrade level only. You can slow the ship once it's within 10 pixels, so that the ship isn't jittery once on top of the mouse. But, don't make the ship slow down before getting on top of the mouse.

Ok, the controls aren't nearly as bad after maxing out handling, which doesn't take very long. However, I'd still like to use cursor keys. Other than that, decent short game.

Cant even get to the edge of the screen. Make it so you have a constant speed not related to where your cursor is.

Not a bad game at all, but why mouse control? Wouldn't arrow keys be better for a game like this? When you need to dodge stuff or grab a far away mineral (especially near the edge of the screen), it would be nice to be able to move as fast as the upgrade level will allow without having to worry about losing control when the cursor slips outside the box.
