Very well made game and great effort put into animations, characters and props. The particles and camera shakes were also more or less perfect.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Things I would consider:\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Remove the ability to jump. It seems not to serve that great of a purpose and caused me to wander around aimlessly a while at the first level because I though rockets were for shooting things down.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Actually it would be good to have the character run across the menu\/title screen and execute a rocket jump so that all players know what to do.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I only played the first and part of the second level and what kept me going was the frustration of not being good at controlling the character. I think this is exactly the feeling you should be aiming for. But what struck me as odd was the order of where the targets were. Especially for the second level, the third position was clearly the most difficult place.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>All in all a very solid game and I hope you feel very satisfied with what you accomplished."},{"author_name":"Kep","author_uid":"24452","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 6:56pm","epoch":1418151060,"text":"Nice graphics. The sounds fit well. The camera shake adds to the intensity. The pathetic jump shifts focus to the core mechanic. Overall, it's very well made.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>If you make more levels, I strongly prefer ones where each target has at least one unique jump, instead of the targets all being on the same path.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Thanks and best of luck."},{"author_name":"Trite Games","author_uid":"47531","time":"Dec 9, 2014 @ 9:01pm","epoch":1418158560,"text":"Yeah rocket jumps!! :D great to see that as a core mechanic.

The art and modeling is amazing, level designs are good, and the music is great. It was very good up until the 4th(?) level. at that point it was very frustrating. Not being able to move in air was annoying, and the jumps just felt random at times. Respawning takes too long, and it was quite annoying that you had to go through everything not only after dying, but even after getting to a goal. Also this doesn't really follow the theme since there were multiple levels, or screens if you will. otherwise, really well done"},{"author_name":"MrShoestore","author_uid":"20984","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 1:30am","epoch":1418174700,"text":"was a little hard to play on my laptop, but its a great entry, and nice looking"},{"author_name":"internetspaulicy","author_uid":"25260","time":"Dec 10, 2014 @ 1:40am","epoch":1418175300,"text":"Great music, nice graphics and animations. The rocket shots are really cool. At first I thought the energy patches were things I was supposed to avoid and the first time I hit one I thought I had lost a life :) The explosion impulses have a weird logic but its a fun logic.

Greatly appreciated and will take all of it into consideration.  I just wanted to address a few opinions on how we addressed this theme.  This scene or 'screen' is one piece with sliding doors that allow for us to change platforms and keep the game dynamic and challenging.  We have added some detail with screen shots to demonstrate what we did.  Again thanks for all the kind words, criticisms, and support.  We are checking all of you out too and will provide honest feedback.

The art is beautiful, as are the animations\r<br\/>\r<br\/>I was dying (literally and figuratively) for some air control though, especially on level 3 where I just had to give up from frustration.

The jumping mechanics were a little hard to get used to (I thought at first the extra jump was powered by shooting the rocket, instead of when it exploded), but when I got them, they were great! The inability to move your character once it was in the air threw me a bit, though. It made jumps which should have been simple (Especially the lower platform on the far right of the final level, over the laser beam) into huge problems. I think in a situation like that, a small amount would go a long way, though it's in no way necessary.\r<br\/>All in all, great game!"},{"author_name":"sP0CkEr2","author_uid":"7135","time":"Dec 22, 2014 @ 4:55am","epoch":1419223800,"text":"pretty cool idea - hard to execute - i liked it - great job"}],"images":["ld31\/45794-30d1749a00e8054ebce9b86348dc11a2.jpg","ld31\/45794-e6f06acf9bf1f808edd15037afde3042.jpg","ld31\/45794-e64c5e53d924c6d0097d0ec91fef956a.jpg","ld31\/45794-3a4e5f29c928e7f65b380fa54e90fff0.jpg","ld31\/45794-9f9511e721f02649d67ac9a87f3c1242.jpg"],"links":[{"url":"http:\/\/gamejolt.com\/games\/platformer\/rocket-jump-rampage\/41277\/","text":"Web"},{"url":"http:\/\/gamejolt.com\/games\/rocket-jump-rampage\/download-distribution\/45233\/?os=windows","text":"Windows"},{"url":"http:\/\/gamejolt.com\/games\/platformer\/rocket-jump-rampage\/41277\/","text":"OS\/X"},{"url":"http:\/\/gamejolt.com\/games\/platformer\/rocket-jump-rampage\/41277\/","text":"Linux"}],"metadata":{"g_key":"14023","g_author":"45794","g_event":"LD31","g_eventkey":"26","g_subevent":"JAM","g_urlkey":"14053","g_title":"Rocket Jump Rampage","g_status":"UCHK1","g_place":"63","g_commentcount":"38","g_site2_node_id":"0","g_hide":"N","g_has_icon":"Y","g_rqueue":"0","g_random":"0"},"nds":[],"node":null,"orig_images":["http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/45794-shot0.PNG-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/45794-shot1.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/45794-shot2.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/45794-shot3.png-eq-900-500.jpg","http:\/\/ludumdare.com\/compo\/wp-content\/compo2\/\/407933\/45794-shot4.png-eq-900-500.jpg"],"text":"Think robots cant jump?
