this is a really cool game

One of the most amazing games ever

(-1)
Bru this shit too easy, ain't no way anybody is beating this.

I landed the rocket on the gold platform without landing gear.

If you press space as soon as you start, then when you hit the ground wait a second and start spamming spacebar, you can get score without losing fuel (works forever)

Love the game, I just wish the info window (position, velocity, fuel, etc.) Didn't go to the center at some height/speed combinations.

Like at lower heights and higher speeds the menu goes to the center because the rocket goes where the menu should be. I really dislike this feature, instead, I wish the camera would speed up to keep the rocket more centered so the menu doesn't have to move.

This one I really dislike (top)


This one is much better (bottom)

I GOT THE CATAPULT UPSIDE DOWN

slowing down time lets you break any speed restriction wtf

(1 edit)

It's probably hard-capped due to collision detection reasons.


Slowing down the speed allows the collision detection to function better.

 LOL WHAT ( i was slowing down time and spun so fast that when i released time i just exlpoded lol)

i got super high lol

quick tip, land on gold with no landing legs and then hold z until you use your fuel for extra points

I got 36KM distance

20KM!

nice game

everytime I land on gold it doesnt register that I landed, I just dont get the point multiplier.

man the US military sure has some very interesting testing methods

nobody can beat my score.


best i could manage

XD

Lowest I've gotten

Just beat it

Dont ask how. i dont even know how.

its easy, just press space right when you start,

We need you back

found a bug, but please don't patch it. If you activate the landing legs just before hitting a platform you don't explode no matter the speed.

It is theoretically possible to get unlimited score by constantly wobbling. I did not try for a long period but I think it is possible to kept on wobbling on the first platform.

Just land on the first platform and remove the landing legs and start wobbling.

i figured that out too

(2 edits)

start with landing legs, hold the the right arrow to go left and the left to go right, then spam space
Then go fast to get fast for 5000 points, then just land on gold

The game keeps randomly speeding up

(1 edit) (+3)

this should give points...


i agree

Beat it.

sure.

cool. you win but can you get to 500,000?

(1 edit) (+1)

sure, give me a sec

k

my pb is 265,360. pretty proud of it but i don't think i'm gonna do better though

(+1)

didnt even leave

(+1)

 doubled, thanks for the challenge idea!

nice!

(1 edit) (+1)

prob possible to get to 6000 but am to lazy to perfect it


edit : I was wrong, 6000 is easily possible

i keep trying to go to the very end befor is stop but the thing circles arounds and i fall off the edge

Doesnt work :(

(1 edit) (+1)

I just found the ultimate tecnique but im lazy so i wont use it

...

and i will never tell anyone

HOW THE HAILSTORM BEAVER DAM DUCK SIT ON A COUCH DID YOU DO THAT

to the people saying they got over 500k, how the absolute skwiguly diguly f*** did you do that. I'm stuck at 420k.

Not that hard when you find a method, New highscore 8300000=)

(1 edit) (+1)

Fun game, highscore of 8300000 (edited)

what method

im touching plats for high score and low fuel burning

have to work on accuracy tho

(+1)

Touch the 4 first pads then just go staight up to you rach 600 in velocity. Then stop burning fuel util your velocity is about 300-200 and then again reach max speed. When you have a reasonable amout fuel about 10,000 or less stop burning fuel and start spinning. When you reach about 13,000 aultitude start to stop your spin and directly after you are still and falling then start slowing down and land on a gold platform.

Please note to always keep an eye on your velocity, speed and spinning rate 

Hopefully you can beat my record;)

THANKS SO MUCH YOOU ARE THE BEST HUMAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD

will post score

i may or may not have decided to beat my highest score by becoming beyblade. very good game, 10/10 edit: I did it again with a 111670. just did it to beat a friend. to as you cant tell, great game.

Mobile version would be nice, played it on PC and it's very fun.
