I couldn't really get the hang of it.

The overall game rule is: try to launch as many rockets as possible in each wave according to the rhythm. The color of the countdown indicates whether the timing of your rocket launch is right. The number keys, from smallest to largest, correspond to the rockets from left to right in each wave. Every 5 waves, the game will ask you whether you want to continue playing or to reveal your score. Finally ,I really hope you if you can play again
I played the fixed version, but I had a hard time figuring out the mechanics - I was pressing the number keys that corresponded to the rocket and was proceeding through waves, but it wasn't clear if I was passing or failing?

Simple and enjoyable gameplay, with a very cute art style. Excellent work!
It took me a few rounds to figure out how the controls actually worked and the intended mechanics, the instructions could use more detail.
I wonder if you left test values in? I start on either round 5 or round 2?
Sometimes the rockets disappear and never come back, which is a shame as the art is gorgeous.
Unfortunately I find the high score mechanic to be a test of how long you are willing to play rather than a measure of skill or achievement. I could play optimally for 10 minutes and lose high score to some one who plays poorly but played for 10 hours.

Junkyard RocketeerThank you very much for your play and feedback; I am very sorry about this. However, I have now fixed the issues in the game and updated the interface. I would greatly appreciate it if you could come back and give it another try. Also, I made sure to fix this bug without adding any new content. Finally, the game rules are: after every 5 waves, the game will remind you whether to continue playing. If you choose not to continue, you will be able to see your score.
