Hello! Welcome to Feedback Quest 8! My name's Hythrain, a co-host and one of the streamers for this event! This feedback is being written live as I stream your game! If you're interested in seeing my live reaction, let me know and I can send you a link to the VOD once it's posted to YouTube!

So my normal approach for any game in these events is simple: I get the game, make sure it's not a virus, then play it with as little information on how to play as possible. This way, I can judge how intuitively someone can figure out the game. Only if it's obvious that I need to read more will I do so. I note this so you can get a sense where some of these feedback comes from. In addition, I want to note that feedback and rating are different; don't use this feedback to gauge what I'll rate, nor should you view my rating as entirely indicative of my feedback.

A fun and rather interesting concept for a game, though I'll admit that I wouldn't be able to play this in normal mode as I needed the free rocket replacements to make any progress.

During my playthrough, there were three things that all came to mind that I felt could be improved. The first was to allow the player to control the camera to change the orientation of everything. Trying to land on the other platforms was just far too challenging for me at times, and I found myself constantly wish I could change the perspective to put any platform I was landing on facing straight up rather than trying to get turning to work properly.

I also found myself wishing I knew what sort of effect each ship upgrade was going to have on my TWR before I had purchased in. More often than not, I found myself not going for upgrades that could help me with a current mission due to not being sure how it would affect the TWR.

Speaking of missions, I wasn't a fan of the fact that your missions are dropped every time you lose a rocket. I'd rather it be where the player can accept and drop quests at any time while that the quests remain active for multiple rockets. Having to remember to accept missions became... well, rather annoying for me.

These were the three things that stood out to me, anyway. I hope this helps out!

Hello hythrain!

Thank you so much for putting together this event. It was amazing to be a part of it and so important for the development of my game.

I hear your thoughts and I've taken note of them. I think these are fair points that others have actually touched on as well. So I'll be looking into ways of improving those areas.

I really really want to watch you play the game. I've been on your youtube page already but I'm assuming you'll only put this up in a few days, right? By all means do let me know.

Once again thanks for everything and long live Feedback Quest!
