If you just go super high, when you start arcing down after running out of fuel you can just keep spinning which gets you a ton of points
Really great game! Loved the modern and old fashioned tech in one game!
my highscore for this game is 68050
here's a suggestion. You could make it so it doesn't stop when underwater, so you could make it so if you were able to go under the platforms and out again, you would get more points. you could also add obstacles in the sky, too, like birds and planes, maybe hovering landing platforms?
I found a bug. If you press and hold space when you start, it will just drop to the ground and not explode. you can take off like that. (you should keep this though, its kinda fun to do) really fun game! if you were to port it to mobile I would download it.
Whats the highest score you got ?
This is such a nice little game really enjoyed it! Great mix of ideas!
love this game, wish there was a standalone build for pc
really well, done. Physics are perfect
I love this game, it's excellently challenging!
Great game!
Your game are on SilverGames,Freewebarcade,funkypotato,flonga,and another sites
Beautiful game! I have never seen anything so amazing in my entire life. NASA needs more people like you!
Legal, qual engine você usou? Tem algum package para os sons? Jogo viciante por causa da física, obrigado por fazer este game <3
Thanks! The engine is Construct 3. All the sounds were made using ChipTone and the music is in the game description.
you can't keep going
once you land on a platform how do you keep going because when I land on the gold and then get the X8 it says that I ave to restart

add more stuff.
This was super fun, great game! Very fun going from trying to launch the rocket as far as possible then later trying to figure out how to land.
It's definitely interesting watching people decide between those two as fuel runs out!
Pretty nice game, but could benefit from a rework of the points you get from stuff, making spinning, showing off, and all the other stuff you can do worth doing.
Definitely noted, thanks!
Very good game
This was lots of fun!
Thanks! (Hey, I know you!)
Lots of fun! Good work on this.
Hey, thanks!
either the game's not working or i'm not understanding the controls
i'm holding up, but the ship just wobbles back and forth regardless of what i do
only the time slow seems to do anything
Thanks for letting me know; mind if I ask what browser/OS you're using?
I've had a few reports about this so far and I'm trying to correlate.
chrome, windows 7
I just pushed the 1.0.1 build which (hopefully) resolves this issue. You may want to clear your cache, just in case.
Movement controls are enabled once the best score's been retrieved, but it could potentially fail, preventing the game from giving you control. I added a failsafe to enable controls right away and disable the best score in case that happens.
Please let me know if this fixes the problem, or if this still happens.
Fun game, nice work.
Oh hey, thanks a bunch!
