Really nice overall polish to the game. Maybe its just me but i really struggled to get past the start, maybe a difficulty option would be good for the game haha. I finally managed to get to the end but unfortunatley skipped past it. Overall had fun playing it :)

Really nice art style music and overall aesthetic.

Player could do with a little budge room at the start i think but once you get sued to the quick start it isn't too bad.

Very challenging game but that's not a bad thing and the fact the level never changes allows for you to adapt and overcome!

UP2037603: Although it does throw you in at the deep end a bit, I really enjoyed playing this. I like that predesigned asteroid fields having a pattern that you can learn and improve on in your future attempts. The art and music both feel well suited for the game.

Thank you very much for your nice review

I really like the art style for this game along with its challenging gameplay. The music in the background also makes for a nice atmosphere

The only thing I would adjust with this game is its difficulty. It 's fun that it is a hard game, however some parts are a bit too tricky, especially the first gap. I'd just suggest giving the player a bit more room to make small mistakes. Other than that I really enjoyed playing this.

So i don't know if it was just me but this game was incredibly hard. Liked the art and the fuel mechanics also the music was good.  simple fun and challenging a good recipy.

The game is meant to be pretty hard, but now from peoples comments I should have given players a little more time to react at the start :)

Super nice artwork and concept. I agree with Ben that it throws you in the deep end a bit at the start. You don't really get a lot of time to react and the first couple of seconds of gameplay are actually quite hard. But then when the blades start forming patterns it becomes a lot more fun. Great game.

Developer

Thank you sir, yeah pretty face first at the start, but it makes you learn quickly too so I'm not sure - I think if I was to make it again I'd give players a little more time though - Just so they can understand what to do

Really love the concept, the art is awesome and the music is cheeky.  Menu is well designed and tells you exactly what to press before you start. The game throws you in at the start a bit too quickly, very little time to react. However, the game is deigned very well and as you progress through the patterns change in a very nice way giving u time to react while also maintaining it's difficulty. You get a mental drive to push further ahead. Overall great game!

Developer

Thank you very much for your feedback I appreciate it :) and happy you like it

The art style and splash screen are very nicely polished, and the concept and execution of the controls are intuitive and well carried out, nice work!

I see you managed to capture the extreme preciseness required of flappy bird esque games, seeing as it's supremely difficult to get consistently. 

Only improvements I would add would be to give some randomness to the way the gears move, allowing some replay value after completing the game.

Other than that it's well put together, I'll be attempting to complete it soon! ;)

Developer

Thank you Wayne for your comment :) - Ill see what I can do

Nice UI + Art! I like the animation on the menu too, it contributes to the immersion of this game a lot.

Having completed the game, I think this may be a little challenging for most - I'd recommend gradually increasing the speed of the Buzzsaws, or maybe adding a health bar to the rocket.

However, I found this quite fun! I look forward to playing future updates.

Thanks for the review, I like the challenge but appreciate your comments - Just happy the game works 

There was a few other things I wanted to do but have other things I need to do
