My actual score is 4:50-ish, but I did another loop thinking it was supposed to be the 7th when this came up lol. Apparently this became my new time

Either way, cool little game y'all made here. Right off the bat, the presentation is amazing. Love how readable everything was as well even as the track got more chaotic. Audio as a whole was also pretty charming.

I'm a little torn on the controls though. The ship only began to feel good to control for me personally only after a few speed upgrades. I'm not sure if it was because I was using a mouse, but it felt like the actual handling could've used a little tuning ( Or maybe just a skill issue lol ). Also had a bug where the blue ship either disappeared, or it was jittering all over the place. 

I also feel like the speed boost after crashing probably would've been better as a primary mechanic tbh, though I do think the progression of both the player and the track itself was paced pretty well over all.

All in all, I'd say you guys made a very solid game over all. Great stuff here

This is an absolutely excellent submission, top marks from me.  This game has incredible game feel, excellent visual and audio feedback, charming art style, fun music, great difficulty curve, and is just a blast to play.  I particularly like the first screen showing you the controls and how you have to slam into the upgrade buttons.  I wanted coin magnetism so bad and kept missing and getting different upgrades.

I think the only issue I ran into is it kinda seemed like the ghost got stuck on my player character a few times?  Unless the exact thing happened to me the previous loop.  It was strange.  

This game was a blast to play wonderful job!

The game is fun and very polished, but the itch page says it was published 2 hours before the jam started, and the submission was made 4 minutes into the jam, which is sus...

My gamepad is cursed. x) On a chrome based browser, thrust is not detected, and on Firefox it's on the left trigger. (it's not the first game where it poses issues, so it's not your fault)

Okay, so I find the concept really clever and on spot with the theme. There's an interesting balance between collecting stars and trying to improve its time. But I found the execution really frustrating. I thought it was first because of the mouse controls, but even though the gamepad improved it a bit I still had a lot of troubles. I think it comes down to two things. First, the feeling of progression wasn't there. It feels slow at start, and even after several speed upgrade, it's still slow at the end. And my previous ghost seemed like a testimony that, yes, I wasn't going any faster! :P Perhaps it was just an impression, or a lack of feedback, but really even with powers like boost on collision or arrow boosts, I felt I was sluggish. And secondly, I'm not a fan of the level-design. Especially once it gets harder. Moving obstacles that completely blocks the track, forcing to wait until they retract… Boost arrows that goes right into a trap… Targeting bomb placed after a straight line that you can't see until you hit them… This all seem unfair, and going against the speed improvement of the game. How am I supposed to go faster if I also have to be more careful? The boost on collision also quickly gets nullified, as the tight turns and narrow spaces doesn't seem to take account for it. It just made me bonk on every walls.

So unfortunately I didn't have a really pleasant experience with the game. But I wanted wish I had! Its visuals are great, the sound just makes you want to play again. And the concept is once again really cool, I think it's a solid design. Even the physics is actually fun to master (at least on the gamepad). It just doesn't get off, for the reasons I mentioned. But it's a jam after all, balancing is one of the hardest task.  It's still incredible that you managed to pull that off during the jam!
