Really like this game - the controls are delightfully frustrating. I mean that in the best way - I have to really think ahead if I want to boost just a little more and it makes all the difference in the time. Great submission, thanks for sharing! :D
Is it all real people in leaderboards? Hard to believe someone make it in 7 sec when it needed like 4 to reach first satellite. Also starting from place 13 spaceships boosting from the start at doublespeed and i have no idea how.
Either way i'm pretty happy with mine #15, good game
Really enjoyed this one! I played a couple times and got #110 on the leaderboard. I'm interested to see how the top 10 did it, I could barely optimise down to 19 seconds. It's not a particularly long game, but it has a fun LOOP! Would love to see other levels to race in, could expand this to include a custom level editor if it were to become a full game
Stressful fun. Cringe every time I was about to crash and knew it was too late. A little annoying to start over and have to hear from the scary villain again :) until I realized the space bar for fast reset. I also used it when I knew I was toast :) Personally I might tweak the momentum or open up the arena more. Also a control to increase FOV so I could strategize / prepare a little more. Th ghost idea was sick and leaderboards brings out the sickness! Also the art with the outlining was crisp and nice and catchy tune. Worth playing again and again.
Loved this game, such a great take on the theme and it was fun to compete with players of the past! Seeing the paths of the next best players is a fantastic idea, it encourages the player to improve and compete, and I'm sure it's the main reason I played as long as I did. The physics feel unlike any other racing game, I never quite felt like I had control, but I think that's part of the fun of this one. This is a really polished game, and I especially loved the death animation. Fantastic work!
This music is absolutely bumping and this game is honestly a lot of fun to play over and over again. My one minor nitpick is I kept trying to get the dialogue out faster and kept skipping it, other than that it's all fantastic
I love the premise and how you're encouraged to get a better and better time. I normally don't go for that sort of thing but I was practicing my drifting around the asteroids so much here. Good work!
Nice game :) I had fun!
Fun little game, very tricky to fly well. Love the styling and restart transition!
Man is this game difficult, but it was one of the games I played for the longest, so awesome job. I think after reaching 17-something seconds I wasn't able to improve my score anymore. But I really wanted to follow the narrative to the end. Maybe I'll come back later to try again >:)
Thanks for playing! And don't let the top 10 leaderboard deceive you, 17 seconds is a great time :)
Love the polish on this one! Really satisfying how quickly you can restart and try again, although I never seemed to get faster than 11.6. Even so, great game!!
Thanks for playing! 11.6 is a very respectable time, I could never get sub 14 seconds myself :)
So much fun! Very polished, as usual. Tried for a while to get <11.5, but didn't manage. Oh well, still pretty happy with my time. Good thing we aren't governed by megacorporations in real life. Oh wait ...
Also, I have a weird craving for chocolate chip cookies now, I wonder why ...
Thanks for playing! Haha I never saw the asteroids as cookies until now, and from now I'll never see them as anything else :)
Haha, you're welcome, or sorry, whichever you prefer.
