Freeware Game Pick: Constellation Chaos (David Scatliffe)
Constellation Chaos is an arcade offering from the editor of the MOUSE NO! blog. Using the Z and X buttons to spin a pointer, players must draw a constellation using the randomly-placed stars provided. Small, floating shooting and exploding thingys are everywhere trying to sabotage your attempt.
There's also the problem of completely missing all the stars and crashing into the side of the level, ending your run. It's good fun and quite addictive, egged on by a great little ditty to compliment the gameplay. I was quite pleased with my high score of 1505, so please don't tell me if you manage to beat me. It will make me angry.

I won't.

I've just made an update:
the player now flashes at game start, and now, when you die, the score shows up in the middle of the screen.
Online highscores are coming soon.

Pretty fun little game, only suggestion I would have for it would be to hit a button when you want to shoot yourself, instead of just when you release Z or X.

An example of a fun game, that could be made even better with modified control scheme. In my opinion, it would be a lot better if there was a separate button for "firing", as well as if the rotate speed was slowed down just a little bit.

Actually Chetyre, I must disagree with you. I found that the control scheme made the game quite a frantic experience and gave it something quite unique, expecially the quick rotation speed.
