I liked it.

The power ups change your "paddle,"  those were cool

There is a couple of notable ones; the Drunk engine and freeze. 

Fun game.  Worth the download of the demo.

I have been in touch with the author about the control issue. I am happy to say that he has revised the game to actually move the cursor around the game simply by using your arrow keys(meaning that your control setups through your encoders should work very very well now). It has an option at the start of the game now that you can set to turn on movement of cursor by using the arrow keys. I tested it and I absolutely see no problems now whatsoever, even works so well as to enter your initials on the scoreboard using this method. Last I checked the website, it still showed the build version as 1.0. I am sure in the next few days or even as I type this that the revised build will be available to test out. Very nice of Felix(author) to work this issue out for us all. Give this game a chance, again, its very fun to play. Game On!

I love this game, but find it a pain to have to press F1 (after Esc) to confirm the exit.

I've posted on the relevant forum http://nurium.com/phpBB01/viewtopic.php?p=555#555 to ask if it would be possible to change this to "press Esc again to exit", or just make it user configurable.

Cheers,

Richard

The author of the game has now replied to my posting, saying this shouldn't be a problem, and it should be included in the next release.

That's what I call customer service!
