Pretty blah mechanic but everything else was cool and was still fun.. Need to use the native resolution somehow. I played on lower resolution so had to scroll.

Nice art; you could make the rocket turn slightly when moving left or right

Minor nitpick, but having the start button on the left as well as the quit when you lose messed with my muscle memory.


As for the actual game, I feel like the meteorites move slightly too fast for the player to be able to dodge, relying a bit too much on luck rather than reaction.

Otherwise, everything else is fine, good job.

As a fan of KSP, I am always up for a rocket game! This one was fun. Maybe, for a more realistic feeling, it would be better if the rocket sprite turns when you turn, if you know what I mean.

Rocket Man! Nice clear graphic. Nice job.

Submitted

A simple concept, executed very well.
Nothing more to add, nice music and graphics, well done !

Submitted

really nice graphics and music. Only thing that i had was playing on chrome, the screen was cut-off but was not a big deal though.

Submitted

Very hard to avoid the incoming comets. Nice clip art style! :)

This game is great! The graphics are great, the music is great, and the theme and aesthetic is great! It is a phenomenal game, and it took some getting used to, but it's amazing! Even if I did have to zoom out the Chrome page to 80%!

Developer

Yes the screen was a bit of an issue, plus I made the camera too big which made the game extra hard. Thanks for the feedback, much appreciated!

Submitted

Really nice graphics. Did make the music by yourself? It's really awesome! Like the others have said the initial window size is really huge. Maybe you should scale that down a bit. Otherwise great entry and again really great music! :)

Developer

Thank you. No the music was sourced online, did want to make it from scratch but didn't have the time at the end.  Thanks for the feedback :)

The screen was crazy large for me, I’m not sure if that’s on my end. But overall pretty good take on the theme and good execution. I like games where the fuel dwindles and you are hoping for a chance to replenish

Submitted

Cool arcade, sometimes comets overlap fuel and this makes the game quite difficult in these kinds of situations

Interesting game. Sometimes its really hard to see the incoming comets. Maybe you could change the camera position a bit :)
