Ho!  The game of "Risk" in space! Great idea! :-)

I tried the demo and think it's great little game!  I like the 
uncomplicated interface and strangely immersive experience.  That music 
certainly sets the mood too.

Good work!  You could probably port such a concept successfully to a pda 
device too if D ever gets there (officially).
