It's a pretty good attempt at a new idea, although it's fairly similar to Hookshot Mika apart from the fact that you shoot sideways instead of upwards. Blending Asteroids with a platform game is a fairly inventive idea, and it's good to see that you made a custom engine (or if you didn't, you've disguised it well). You may need to think of a more imaginative name for your game and/or character in the future, though! The 'vector machine' look might be what you were aiming for, but you're going to have to work a bit harder on your graphics if you want a larger project to be taken seriously, unless your gameplay is absolutely stunning. Something to think about is different levels... I didn't get too far in this game, but all the levels I saw were the same. Anyway, it's a pretty standard, average game, but by no means a bad one. If you keep trying original ideas like this one, you'll definately find followers within this community. Keep up the good work.
