cute game, hold back on post processing a bit

Developer

Thank you!

Pretty cool, that was fun. Like those game where you have to dodge things :D Was funny to make the rocket really fast.

Developer

Thank You!

The game was pretty cute, but I was kinda missing some background music. However, the noisy post-processing effect was pretty neat and added to the presentation. It was pretty fun trying to collect as many coins as possible before running out of fuel so you could upgrade your stuff.

I thought it was especially clever how you handled the spawning of rocks and how they moved with you until the last moment before dropping down. Overall, really well done in the end!

Developer

The noisy post-processing effect was just a recording of my ventilator😎 Thank you for the feedback.

Fun simple game to play when your bored, perfect! :D Only complaint I have is that I wish it followed the limitation more innovatively.

Developer

Thank you!

I put all of my money into speed over and over until I eventually broke the game! What a thrilling experience. I went so fast eventually I couldn't avoid the asteroids at all, so the only way to get past them was to put more money into speed. I guess I eventually reached light speed and was able to warp through the asteroids and land in the abyss of coins. By this point the game was mostly frozen but occasionally I'd see my points go up. I hold onto that spacebar for my dear life until eventually I heard the death sound and as you can see it completely froze trying to open the shop. 10 out of 10. Wild ride start to finish. I feel like an intergalactic explorer.  Here is a picture to prove I went over the edge into the abyss of coins.

Not even while testing the game I got a score this high(with cheats).Thank you for the Feedback :)

Does that mean I made history?

Developer(+1)

Yes

Managed to get a score of 1475! Really clean execution here, I like the escalation dynamic of buying more speed gains you higher score quicker but makes meteors a much bigger threat; you're practically dodging the warning symbols at the higher speed counts. Simple concept that's polished well, great work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you!

I put 100 into speed and now I can't be stopped

I really liked it, just a simple little game. Although I think one exploit is that you gain more height by just tapping the space bar, then letting the momentum take you up, then pressing space again. Still very fun tho

Developer(+3)

Thats no exploit, but thats the way the pros play the game. Thank you

Submitted

Guess I'm a pro then 😎

Submitted

I noticed that too and knew it must be an extra cool strategy

Submitted(+1)

I loved this game! 

Developer

Thank you :)

Cool game, I always like these upgrade-based games, we even made one ourselves. I would have liked to see the ability to buy a weapon or some armor to be able to better deal with all the meteors. It seems like the best strategy for points would be high fuel with minimal speed to easily avoid obstacles.

Developer

Thank you!

Game UI doesnt work in WebGL? Might just be me but the upgrade selection isnt working? If you need to press a certain key lemme know and I'll replay, overall fun game, lots of potential, little like kerbal space program where you fly up and make achievements to fund your rocket!

Developer

What exactly isn´t working with the UI? You need to press on these buttons to buy something, but thank you for the feedback!

Submitted(+1)

ahhh i might have been pressing the icons, lemme replay

Developer

yeah, i probably should have made the whole thing the button and not just the bottom part.

Submitted(+1)

Yeah nvm it does work my bad, speed boost effect is really impactful, makes the game go alotttt quicker, thank you for the quick response!

Submitted

I was scrolling through the comments seeing if anyone else encountered this bug. turns out it wasn't a bug. I just didn't realize those were buttons haha

Submitted(+1)

Holy s*** you can go fast! I love the aesthetic. The filter you use fits perfectly. There comes a point where you go so fast that it becomes unplayable, but despite that, it's still quite enjoyable to see how fast you can go. Great Job!

Developer

Thank you!

Very fun game. Remind-me the old flash games that i used to play early 2000. Simple and well executed.

Fun game! I had a good time playing it! The speed upgrade makes it a bit hard to avoid meteors.

Developer

Thank you!

this game is really enjoyable, the concept isnt very orignal, the presentation is good, and the use of limitation isnt very revolutionary like everyone elses game, also while submitting your game, in the "Use of the limitation" rubric, you were supposed to say how did you interpret the limitation and how did you include it into the game,

Developer

Thank you, i fixed the "Use of the limitation" rubric now

I love games where I get to upgrade things :) Definitely had a fun time with this and totally didn't spam upgrade speed till I flew incredibly fast over and over.. heh.. heh..

Developer

Thank you
