This is a lot of fun. I really didn't know what to expect, but it's a fun little Crazy Taxi drill simulator in space with rats. Shooting out of the ground and into low orbit is a great feeling. Really great job on your game!

Vrum vrummm :D.

Very nice little game you have here. Pretty fun and simple. The only thing I would say is that it took me a little while to figure out how the boost worked, and even when I did it was a little hard to control. Having the player be able to turn faster would help I think, especially when outside the planet. Also 90 seconds was a little bit long. I think 60 or even 30 would probably be better. But very fun and solid submission! I enjoyed it a lot.

Greetings, i'm from the https://itch.io/jam/lost-relic-games-1/rate/1579785 submission!

Guess the game was alright! My highest score is 5600$ and couldnt get it higher because i found out when you use the boost outside of the "drill area" you are pretty fast! But too often i just missed my destination xd So i just used it to collect the mouses instead of bringing them to the destination.

Was a fine take for me for the jam! Good job

Oh yeah! It's a very fun game. Drilling the moon for cheese felt very therapeutic. Slingshotting to space and back is a nice touch. The only real complaint I have: let us destroy rocks with boost to create our own shortcuts ;)

Awesome entry to the jam!

I like the drilling mechanic a lot! It would be cool to break through the rocks with the boost engaged.

Love the concept, very fun to game mechanics. Reminded me of playing Crazy Taxi as a kid, but with a fun drill/space ship. Congrats on a fun game!

The controls are pretty unique. Controlling the spaceship while orbiting with the boost is inherently fun. I wasn't sure when to take one rat over another, and I found that it wanted to be able to fly close to the surface of the moon to pick up / drop off without stopping, but it wasn't clear how close I needed to be to make this happen, which sometimes lead to frustrating misses. Very interesting concept.

Thanks! That sounds like a pretty good strategy. Appreciate the feedback, maybe in a future revision we can make it clearer where the pick-up point is.

this was great! it's a really unique idea, and slingshotting into orbit was quite fun! (I love that the moon is made out of cheese)

Thanks for playing and the feedback!
