fun game, a little polish and tweaking and I could play this for a while.
1. the music shouldn't restart w every death imo
2. maybe a gentle course correction midflight would be nice
3. a brake to slow down would be nice
4. a projected trajectory might also help
5. brighter indicators for the radius of the planet (or just draw them over the CRT shader?) they were a bit hard to see at times
6. maybe an undo option (1 = undo == 1 "life" and you have 3 lives and can earn them)?
this seemed like an evolution of the classic game of snake somehow.
I really enjoyed it!
Timing is very tight. The visual style is on point though really cool
The pixel art, music, physics and gameplay were all on point. Great Job.
Love the vibe of the game, the shaders and the audio work well together!
Gameplay is very fun, I am very bad at it though lol, my poor rocket keeps crashing, I can see a lot of love was put into this game though, the visuals are spetacular
The gameplay feels great, offers a solid challenge, and delivers an overall fantastic experience.d(゚∀゚d)
Quite challenging, as the gravity fields on planets are small; however, I still had fun trying to beat my record multiple times. Also, the artwork for the planets and stars is amazing.
Very cool game! The easier mode would look be very appreciated. Maybe you could try to make the map bigger -- so that an ignorant player could just send it to the void -- animations would make this beautiful. After trying in web, installed it on my phone and it looks insanely good
Some more content, maybe some levels to traverse through, would look great in this game
I would like to formally apologise to all those planets I crashed into. This is a beautiful looking game. Simple but well executed. And surprisingly difficult too (I only got as high as 2400). But the restarts are really quick which helps. Amazing work for a solo effort, great job!
The art for this game is top tier, I really liked it. I had a hard time aiming the rocket's trajectory at first but with a bit of playtime I got better at it, though sometimes it felt like I would unfairly miss an orbit.
