I'd have to agree with FroggyWad, this game is kind of luck based. It's entirely possible that the planets don't line up for me to have a path forward. Using boxes can help, but it's not enough every time. The platforming also feels a little sloppy.
It would be cool if you could actually build up some orbital speed to slingshot around planets to get a little more distance. Maybe zooming out and providing some skill-based avenues to get some more distance would be cool.
I do appreciate the memes, for the record.
