Pixel art is great, concept is cool, and sound is good. Gameplay design is a bit lacking with the beginning being way too hard to maintain control of the ship. Solid entry though!
Thank you!
Fun game but its quite hard for my taste
Yeah the difficulty is a bit too hard for the beginning.
Cool idea and quite a challenge, nice game :)
this is a gem. the mechanics is a nice idea. and the music is so well produced
Thank you so much!
Greetings from one Pilot to the other. Altough we share similar theme I believe yours is more a of a game then mine. Cool idea and great job!
They are different games! Thanks for your comment!
Yes, they are. I'm just making fun of similar titles :)
Great little arcade title. Could imagine it on mobile and with some social features I'd easily be competing with friends who love these types of hardcore High Score modes 🙌
We really wanted to add highscores but we ended up short on time. Maybe we'll do an update to add it and make it accessible on phone too :)
This is so hard, but I really like it! I've never played anything quite like it and I really appreciate that. Good job!
Thank you, I really hope we I can work with the dev a bit more to implement some more features and possibly make it playable on android.
I'm too clumsy to play your game. Maybe try to tweak the mechanics so we don't bounce off of the walls so much? I couldn't last more then a few seconds :'(
Maybe have an easy mode? :)
We had some headaches surrounding the wall bounce and we are aware that it feels a bit unfair. We already tweaked the game to make it a lot easier trust me it was a lot harder at first haha.
As a tweak I'd suggest some vertical impulse from the walls, rather than be a show stopper it could still give you that additional height for an extra mine 👌
What would feel natural to me is to press "W" and you go forward. Maybe have that option when you start bouncing?
This is already in the game, you may do so once you fill up the bar on the right by earning 5000 points.
Best game, feels like a real game on a game store, 5/5 ⭐
We did think it really had Android/iPhone vibes we were almost thinking of making an android version of it but we ran out of time.
Nice fun challenging this game has it all I love these kind of games. Very good work! 5 ⭐
Thank you so much I really appreciate it!
I love the ridiculous concept, the sense of speed with the visuals and the immense feeling of "one more try!" it has! It is way too hard for me, but I'm sure some subset of peple would love this aspect as well! Excellent work!
Thank you for your comment! We did try to make a fun arcade game and I hoped we nailed it!
I thought this was a christmas gift but ended up making me go mad 5/5 for everything!
Thank you Beam, we appreciate you! And sorry for making you mad!
no problem the game was actually fun my comment here is just a joke , I actually had a good time I like difficult games !
I could honestly play this game for hours, I'm a sucker for challenging but rewarding game mechanics which I think you've done really well here. Loved it!
Oh, you have no idea. It used to be substantially harder until I tweaked some of the values.
The programmer meant impossible not substantially harder. Thanks for your review!
