This is fun. Down arrow cursor cuts the thrust after you hit something, helping in the recovering maneuvers. 

Funny to see that collision moment at almost the speed of light, then you waste all the regular tank turning the impact force into forward movement force,..like 1 minute of zero thrust... LOL LOL

Very funny,...at some point I reach hyperspeed acceleration, and colliding to UFO dishes...no MARS?

I had a real good time. It took a while until I found out that you can manually boost and steer :)

A whale around the moon? Hahahaha Have a great time playing this. Really enjoy it.

Thanks for your feedback! Yeah, something with the controls is a bit off.

I really like the game, especially the fact that losing is part of the game mechanics

Developer(+1)

The gameplay is inspired by flash based launch-games (e.g. Learn to Fly, Into Space, Flight) some of us played an eternity ago. Glad you like it!

Very nice game. Although, I did notice that getting to mars paid less than almost getting to mars, lol.  But, still lots of good work.

Thank you for the hint! It seems like we didn't properly adjust the winning-function for the moon-level...

Great fun! Just one little thing: when you upgrade everything to level 10, you are still able to spend money on upgrades which do nothing.

Developer

You're right! We've forgotten to disable the upgrade-buttons when reaching the last upgrade-level.

Fun game. I liked watching the rocket change with all the upgrades. Some audio would have gone a long way, but overall really great game. Great job!

Developer

Thank you for your feedback! We had even prepared some sound files (there is a sound based on an actual rocket recording in the repository). But then we ran out of time and couldn't implement it properly.

Very fun. However, I pushed some of the keys starting with Q and got free upgrades with every key press. Dev commands, I assume?

Developer

You are right, we forgot to deactivate them at the end. The "cheat-keys" are the following:
Q - Upgrade Head
W - Upgrade Tank
E - Upgrade Thruster
R - Upgrade Booster
All keys refill the rockets fuel, booster and durability.

Nice to hear, that you had fun!

I liked this game. Were the whales in space a reference to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?

Developer

We're glad that you liked it! And yes, the whales are a reference to Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy!
