This game was so fun to play! when you get used to the controls, its really fun to zoom around and use the planet's orbit to your advantage! If i had to give one minor critique, I think maybe some warning should be given to show that the enemy ships are coming, because sometimes it feels like they show up and approach to fast for you to react, but its a minor complaint to an overall really good game. Well done!

Cool. Old school. Loved the sound and the controls were just hard enough to make it challenging. nice.

Good luck with the jam!

Loved the feel of being a speedy guy AND LOVED THE SOUND DESIGN AND MUSIC

not a fan of the way it controls, take a lot to stop and change direction


the physics were interesting, and the concept is really good, just feel too much for the speed/change direction

i enjoy it

Yeah, dealing with momentum can be rough sometimes. I can probably add in a boost to the thrust force scaled by how misaligned it is with the existing direction of travel to help with that once judging is over

Strong visuals, nice audio. Well done!

This is a very polished game and I really enjoyed playing it! It sometimes felt a little too easy to barely miss a checkpoint and then have to take a few seconds to get back to it, but that's mostly a skill issue

The sound in your game is amazing! The moment the menu music started up I got excited to get into the game. The art style is great and you worked with the theme and mechanic really well. The movement took some getting used to and sometimes I got a bit frustrated with how weak the thrust felt, but overall this is a great submission!

I love the animations and music! The player’s momentum felt pretty strong to the point where I kept substantially overshooting the targets, but it was fun once I figured that out!
