I like the pixel art planets! Very challenging too!
I love the polish on display here. The art looks great, and with the music and the CRT filter it creates a wonderful atmosphere. But wow my reaction times are bad, I can't get more than 2-3 additional planets.
This game is as clean as it is incredibly difficult. It's a very simply idea, executed with as much polish, consideration and variance as possible. It consistently feels amazing to interact with, and every time I lose I just get the overwhelming urge to play one more round, which is about the best possible psychological response you could ask for from an infinite runner like this. I was initially thinking that maybe the initial loop being slower and then gradually speeding up would help the game, but part of its addictive nature comes from just how fast it is and how easy it is to die immediately. It's very clear there was a lot of care and consideration in every facet of this game, excellent job!
Wow this review means a lot to me! I am so glad you enjoyed, thanks for playing!
I might use this as a review on my portfolio, would that be okay with you and should I include your username?
You have my full permission username and all!
The game is fun and challenging. Got 2000 as a high score. Love the art style.
Really nice game from such a simple concept.
I can't get past 2k score, it's a bit hard to master :D
I can't be an astronaut
General: Art looks great. Loop concept is great. Game mechanics are simple but hard to master. Creativity is good.
Mood: It feels simple and, because the changes in the physics, makes it a passionate game to test your abilities.
The art is 5/5. I really enjoy gravity style games. I would definitely say the controls need some polish with some slightly more forgiving gravity and this would be a ton of fun! Nicely presented!
nice game
I think I crashed my ship 20 times playing this.
At least the art is nice.
This game was hard but really addicting!
Very cool, at first i didnt understood where loop was and then luckily i ve been caught by orbits x)
Hard to master !
Wonderful artwork, the font, the stars, the planets... it looks better than many big games.
So beautiful.
geez, where is this dang rocket going?!
Pretty challenging, but the art and music are great! Fun to play
Nice game but too hard
Ahhh this game is so hard but so fun! Great job--the art is so pretty <3
Definitely a hard to learn, hard to master game, however I thought it was very fun and had nice art. I do wish the music kept playing when u die though
Very fun, like visuals
Simple, and yet challenging. And it looks visually amazing.
Super hard as others have mentioned but a fun lil rocket game is always nice
