Pros:
  • Extremely short and yet humorous intro
  • Neat idea and reference to a movie no one but film buffs and smashing pumpkin fans will  likely remember
  • Nicely written little french guy, nicely drawn landscapes of the various bodies in space
  • Audio effects are simply great. The tom for explosions and other instruments for whatever are really nice and effective and furthermore very appropriate for the context.
  • Mainline ending was  funny though scientifically misrepresents the difficulty of such a feat.
Cons:
  • The range of power is too great. 0 -20 and 80-100 are rarely ever useful and it makes the effective range of power that much smaller where you end up in situations where a value of 50 crashes you into the Moon and a power of 49 crashes you back into Earth as in level 4. (The buttons/ranges are also consequently too small)
  • Restarting is a bit too unrefined. The zoom resets to maximum and the music stops and starts every time. There's no quick reset when you know you goofed, and so you sit there waiting for french-captain-guy to come to the same realization you had 12 seconds earlier.
Here & There:

The controls for the lander are bizarre. I don't know how this scheme was settled on or determined to begin with, even though it works pretty well it's still really very weird. The fuel rate seems to be balanced well though I could not get past the wall-in-space level despite spending around 20 minutes on that level alone and so I can't speak to the last 2 lander levels. A bit more polish and I wouldn't have any gripes, but I'm writing these to specifically find gripes and alert people to them so, take that as you will. God I love those toms. Well done!
