so i already commented but i wanna give some ideas so heres some
Future Feature Ideas
Gameplay Features
- Limited Fuel
Instead of only having a fuel used counter, add an actual limited fuel system like a real rocket.
Ideas:
- The rocket gets lighter as fuel is used, allowing it to accelerate faster.
- Fuel usage depends on thrust amount.
- Low thrust (25/default) uses a normal amount of fuel.
- Higher thrust uses much more fuel.
This would make players balance speed, thrust, and fuel efficiency.
- Drag / Aerodynamics
Make the rocket's shape and fins actually affect flight.
Ideas:
- Fins help stabilize the rocket.
- Rockets can glide/fly for a short time without thrust.
- Wind can affect the rocket.
- Rocket design changes how it flies.
- Engine Heat
Add a heat system for the engine.
Ideas:
- Boosting for too long generates heat.
- Too much heat could damage or destroy the rocket mid-flight.
- Players have to manage boost usage.
- High-Speed Effects
Add effects when rockets reach very high speeds.
Ideas:
- Rockets can gain speed by diving instead of only boosting.
- Extreme speeds create more aerodynamic effects.
- Add things like wind effects, smoke trails, and heating/fire effects similar to atmospheric reentry.
- Rolling
Add rocket roll control.
Example:
- Q = Roll left
- E = Roll right
Similar to how rotation works in games like Kerbal Space Program.
Harder but Could Be Cool
- Targeting / Navigation System
Allow the player to select a location and have the rocket automatically guide itself.
Possible features:
- Target selection
- Navigation system
- Automatic steering
Future Platform / Availability Ideas
- macOS Support
- Seen people asking for it, so it could be a good platform addition.
- Android Support
- iOS Support
- If possible, releasing on iOS could expand the player base.
- Also IOS is a little harder to release on while Android can be Google
Playstore and Itch.IO so yea, not sure but i think you also need a Mac to make apps for IOS not sure but i swear i heard it somewhere
- Steam Store/Page
- Could help with visibility, updates, and building a community.
- Controller Support
- Seen a few people asking for it.
also sorry if its all split and stuff with tons of spaces between lines i made this in my Notepad and ported it over and it bugged out i tried fixing most it but yea some is still bugged, hope its still readable
